Edit: Context behind this question is because my parents always tell me to shut the windows all the way and I kinda feel like I’m suffocating… literally… (it’s Winter here)
Like I just struggle to breathe with windows closed…
So I’m just curious, how do y’all not suffocate while trying to keep house warm and spend less on heating?


A lot less than I want and need to. My social anxiety is ridiculous with small stuff like this, just opening the windows easily gives me anxiety because I hear people outside. It sucks but I often manage to do it for a while before I have visitors, just so the air fresher.
