#In general, one cannot claim that he is suffering and therefore exempt from the sukkah if others would typically not suffer from experiencing the matter he is facing.<ref>Rama 640:4. Nonetheless, the Mishna Brurah 640:29 writes that if one is a fastidious individual and other fastidious people of the same type would suffer from what he is undergoing, this would suffice to exempt him. </ref>

#Some poskim permit sitting under a handheld umbrella, even over ten [[Tefachim]], unlike a more permanent umbrella such as one supported by a table, because it is still considered sitting under the [[schach]]. One should not recite a beracha in this case <ref>Halichot Shlomo 2:8-20, Shalmei Moed pg. 112, She’arim Metzuyanim b’Halachah 135:5, and Nefesh Chayah OC 629 all allow sitting in the Sukkah under an umbrella. Rav Chaim Kanievsky (Piskei Shemuot p. 101) holds that it is permissible to do but unnecessary. Rav Elyashiv, quoted in Succat Chayim page 52, however, does not permit sitting in the Sukkah under an umbrella. The Brisker Rav (HaSuccah Hashalem, Miluim 13:4) did in fact do this himself. </ref> This is relevant to chol hamoed, but not to on Shabbat or Yom Tov, when an umbrella may not be used. See [[Boneh#Umbrella]].
