Guest guest Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 I feel so much better near the ocean, fresh air. Makes a huge difference.

" It " was given many names by various healthcare providers and came with a lot of various medications to counteract whatever IT was. I finally have stepped off the rollarcoaster that was half of my life when I realized IT was mold poisoning. Everytime I lived with mold I suffered and deteriorated. It cost me a child, a marriage, and years of well- being. It took me until the age of 32 to figure this out. Now that I am well, nobody really believes me. Life is ironic. Also, I have been doing some studies that lead me to believe there are many illnesses caused by mold and that this is being kept quiet, and people are being made to feel insane who proclaim their correct diagnosis through intuition. I have a hypothesis that this is because they would lose a lot of money made off of too many drugs that would no longer be needed. Greetings, I am a 32 year old female, now residing as close to ocean water as possible. FAIR USE NOTICE: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a hypothesis that this is because they would lose a lot of money made off of too many drugs that would no longer be needed.< I really wonder, because I have spent years travelling and telling my story to CFS groups and they were even more dismissive than doctors. This was surprising to me, because many were reeking with mold and complaining of all the classic signs. You'd think they would have been a little more open minded - desperate as they are. Although doctors have certainly been guilty of malfeasance, the intense effort that sick people put into rejecting the concept causes me to speculate that the opposition may not be purely conscious and intentional. - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 Hi , I know when my son's health went downhill and I was trying to find what was wrong that year, I dismissed mold as being the cause at first. I can't really say that I dismissed mold making one ill as much as my logic was that if mold was the problem then all of us would be sick and no one else was, just my youngest. The alternative doctor I visited during this time did warn about mold when I spoke of mold growing on the top of certain walls in the house, but I did pooh pooh it for that reason I just gave and told him I had started running three dehumidifiers and put in air cleaners and was addressing the issue. These moves were far too little. I wish he would have pressed more, he was more on the line that it was food allergies, especially milk. He ordered tests on food, but not mold. If he had, I am sure I would have gained 3-4 months on this. Woulda, shoulda, coulda.)^; But are not many mold victims at first deniers themselves? And that being a big reason they became mold victims in the first place? Mold is so common it hardly seems possible to be so dangerous. Hard for me to blame others when I was the same way too. Looking back, I had plenty of warning and the thought did cross my mind that it was the cause, but I had many other ideas of causes and just did not act soon enough on the mold until it was too late for total recovery of my son. I suppose I can be grateful I was soon enough for the rest of the family. Fletch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But some persist in doubt beyond all reason, even after witnessing compelling evidence and demonstrations. Learning mold reality isn't like learning a new skill as much as it is " letting go " of old familiar concepts of reality. The emotional processes are comparable to the most intense grieving process and the " denial " transcends reasonableness and logic. Even after reconfiguring actions into accordance with this new necessity, It is common to manifest various degrees of recidivism. I finally asked myself " How many times to I have to get beat over the head before I just accept that this is how things are now?

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 -Yes, exactly, after my first devastating exposure in 1991, I blamed it on other things for years, only after 10 years of escalating illness and life-loss, did it click what the problem was- but in my case no one offered me the mold connection -- In , " fletch_82000 " <fletch_8@h...> wrote: > > Hi , > > I know when my son's health went downhill and I was trying to find > what was wrong that year, I dismissed mold as being the cause at > first. > > I can't really say that I dismissed mold making one ill as much as > my logic was that if mold was the problem then all of us would be > sick and no one else was, just my youngest. > > The alternative doctor I visited during this time did warn about > mold when I spoke of mold growing on the top of certain walls in the > house, but I did pooh pooh it for that reason I just gave and told > him I had started running three dehumidifiers and put in air > cleaners and was addressing the issue.
