For the last 1.5 years I was always sick in my apartment. Brain fog, sore throat, itchy eyes, heart pounding when lying down, felt like the air was heavy at times. My sex drive is in the dumps too, I can't remember the last time I woke up with an erection and I'm only 27. I always felt better as soon as I left and spend a few hours at work or while on vacation. Couldn't figure out what was making me sick so I finally moved.
$10,000 later and in my new apartment for the last two weeks, and I'm even more sick. The first night I slept okay, but after that my symptoms ramped up really quickly. My throat is literally on fire, to the point where it hurts to breath or swallow. My eyes feel extremely heavy when I move them, and I can't concentrate at all. I bought a Winix 5500-2 air purifier, left the place, and ran it on full blast for three days. Still no improvement. I left for two days this past weekend for a wedding and I still felt pretty sick, although I want to say I started feeling better towards the end.
I don't know what to do anymore. I don't even know if it's mold, I never found any. But it's the only thing I can think of and I feel like I somehow brought it with me. I'm so tempted to just go buy a few cheap clothes at Walmart and live out of a hotel for a week to see if its my stuff making me sick. But what if my car's contaminated? Idk. If my experiment works then I'm tempted to leave all my $10,000 of new stuff old stuff behind and cold turkey live somewhere new as shitty as it all is.
Could really use some support and advice right now. It's Christmas and I'm by myself, I was planning on using this time to settle into my new place and be happy but instead I'm more sick, alone, and miserable than ever.
