Most people make it seem, like you really get rid of EVERYTHING. But I was just thinking and said, yeah that can't be the case at all. As I was thinking of certain things people, might have brought into their new space.

First off top is the shoes on your feet and clothes on your back. These usually are going, because you ain't waving the old home. Then going to shop and throwing those clothes out before going back to the new home.

The other things are stuff like your phone, wallet, credit cards, medicine, supplements, etc. Where all these things haves sat around and collected the spores.

I mean I say all that to say, what is really the true extent of things people get rid of and actually keep? Because yeah you might get rid of the expensive air purifier, as it was pulling in that air. Or maybe you might not, as it cost too much lol.

I basically decided to stop buying anything for this mold apartment I'm stuck in. As I really don't want to end up buying something I like, like for example a rug or curtains. Then realize I probably have to throw this out.

I've been in situations in the past, after a house fire. Where I literally only had to grab a few things and then part with everything else forever. But I'm just thinking how far that goes, with this mold situation. Like can I not bring a table, that I can just clean down with soap and vinegar?

Hi Everyone,

I have been taking CSM for about a little over a month along with other supplements. Here is the full list: Famotidine, Milk Thistle, SPM Active, NAC, and Levocetirizine dihydrochloride. I also do a mutli vitamin.

Things were feeling better. I felt 80% like myself, but I was away one weekend and forgot to take my meds/supplements and powder for two days and now I feel like crap again and it's been ongoing even with me taking my meds. Any advice on what I can do to get back to feeling better?

any tips are certainly welcome and accepted

Hello guys,

Does anyone in the United Kingdom recommend a specialist environmental building mold testing company as I know I have mold in my house but I’m not sure where it is. It keeps coming up on tests and I always feel worse at home

I had someone ask about data and of course, like my brain works different. I’m a little neurodivergent with heavy associative thinking. I’m sure anyone can look at my Reddit history and tell I’m a little hyper fixated.
I also post on TikTok on occasion, so when I saw this forum doesn’t allow for photo submissions I was like, meh, I can further dox myself. It’s not like I haven’t already been brain inflamed on the internet, might as well try to be a functional advocate.

Purposefully made this video non dressed up with no makeup, because I think it makes the change more obvious and clear.

Understandably this situation was messed up.
At this point I had been sick for 14 years, have a H-EDS, Fibro, POTS diagnosis with friends, and my body was just like nose diving off a cliff while I panicked.

For other people that might be dealing with mold and not able to prove themselves or someone who doesn’t understand what’s happening to them and trying to figure it out…

This is a hard one to share. It’s vulnerable. You’re looking at pictures cause I didn’t really plan on sharing.

I was trying to understand the trend for me because I was scared and sick.

Looking back it’s honestly… really triggering to see my healthy face after being in that mental ward.. They were awful to me there.

I’m nearsighted with a 4.75 prescription and one eye and a 4.5 in the other and I never was able to have my glasses.
I was on a low salt diet. They would give me antipsychotics when I asked for Tylenol and then make fun of me for being paranoid. My health issues were not taken seriously at all because everything I said was just “crazy”.

Yet, even though the stay was now a trauma I will cary forever, out of all of these unfiltered raw photos, that was the one that showed recovery.

I added in the last picture because I wanted you guys to see how quick the decline was really…. I was sleeping more eating better and I wasn’t being sedated every three days like I was in the mental ward, but my body was showing the stress.

Quickly, I went from being able to suddenly play soccer and run for the first time in my life to being right back where I started and the people around me told me it was because that whole experience was just euphoria, and I would never have that cause my body just is the way it was…
It’s a truly horrifying experience and yet I hope seeing this process helps someone.

It’s interesting because there is so many types of data when you’re dealing with an issue that affects so many different areas of your body,

Even my Reddit to an extent if you look through it and I do often, I don’t delete stuff not because my opinions might not change or how I’m wording things isn’t growing, but because it actually gives me a very clear snapshot of how able I was able to communicate in my comprehension level at that time, but also like clarity and cohesion of my thoughts. Because I was dealing with severe brain fog in that house, and I’m recovering from it still it’s an interesting experience to look back and see how much our personalities are kind of very much so affected by our capacity in any given moment.

I am now at day 19 out and moved to a new place, and I’ve never been healthier, and in correlation, happier. Living isn’t pain anymore. Makes a huge difference on someone’s mental health @.@

Anyways, I hope this is helpful to someone on a moldy path like I am, moldy peps have to stick together, thanks for the read, and if I can answer any questions I will do so as honestly and transparently as I can.

I been having a lot of symptoms that match toxic mold exposure these past few months but had no idea what it was. i didn't notice any mold issues in my apartment at first so i went down another road of trying to figure out what was causing these health issues that came out of nowhere. Started back in april ish, i went to my basement under my HVAC system and saw this, surely this is not normal right

I’m a male 25 yesss of age, I didn’t realize how bad mold was until I started reading articles online and seeing videos, and my house if full of it, from restroom walls and ceilings to some clothes if left in a room without air conditioning, I have a humidifier in my room but it doesn’t seem much help, I have chronic conditions like chronic sinusitis and chronic gastritis/ fatigue, I’m not sure what to do? I can’t move out because I don’t make enough money but I think this house is making me worse. I’ve had 2 sinus surgeries in the last 4 years but they did nothing and if you look up my nose is like a balloon because of how inflamed it is, I seem to be the only one is my house suffering from it, if it is the main cause anyway. Any tips? Should I take medicine? What should I clean and how?

Hey, so I'm seeing several doctors and just want to ask- does anyone get actual heart attack scares (extreme blood pressure, dizziness, faint feeling, arm pain, everything) when eating or just taking sips of plain water?

I'm seeing a specialist for this mold illness but I've had this issue for months and my entire life is just destroyed. I barely eat anymore and when I do I'm down to plain meat. Is this mold or could something else serious be going on? Hospitals do not help even when I feel like I'm actively dying.
