Mold toxicity.
Post Body

26yo female. 4’11.5” tall and I weigh 108 pounds. I’m currently taking birth control, 5mg of buspirone a day and 10 mg of Hydroxyzine when needed. Ever since I moved into my new apartment i have been diagnosed with multiple anxiety disorders after not having any anxiety prior. Shortly after my anxiety showed up, we found mold in our air conditioner unit in the apartment (the maintenance guys said it wasn’t mold, but that’s a different story). Mold grows so quickly in our apartment. I guess what I’m trying to say is I sleep under the vent and the air blows directly on me. Can mold toxicity be the cause of my anxiety. My current symptoms are anxiety attacks after eating certain foods, mainly acidic foods, dissociation in public settings to the point of not being able to function, panic attacks that I’m unable to control without medicine. I’m lost and I just want myself back. This all happened out of nowhere.

Edit: after we found the mold in the HVAC system, we did an at home mold test kit and grew 4 types of mold, but my husband never sent off the test because he didn’t “see the benefits of paying for it.”
