How does everyone try to stay cool during the summer?

And to think it is just going to get worse!
I live in SC and it has been pretty warm until yesterday and it was in the 70's. Felt great. I feel like I can't make it up the stairs and supposedly "only have ocular mg". My legs feel like elephant legs - like they are very heavy and weak. The dr. says that is because of the pred I have been on for over a year. I wonder. I pant, wheeze, have shortness of breathe, feel like I want to conquer the world - but can't. It is very discouraging. I feel like I don't want to talk to anyone and just want to stay at home in my comfortable corner and read a book or sit on the porch and look at the beautiful trees, sky and flowers - have a glass of tea and keep reading. sounds like depression and that scares me.
