Do you feel ill when you're near cell phones, fluorescent lights, wi-fi, computers, televisions, or "Smart Meters" for electricity/gas? If so, you may have "electrical sensitivity". Common symptoms include headaches, nausea, exhaustion, "burning" skin, dizziness, inability to concentrate, agitation, heart palpitations, anxiety, and insomnia. Someday the medical field will fully recognize this problem, meanwhile people experience symptoms ranging from annoying to debilitating. It is also something that can be overcome, as people have reduced or eliminated their sensitivities through a variety of methods. This group is for people with electric sensitivities to discuss what works for them -- and what doesn't!

Note that this is NOT a group for informational/activist posts about the dangers of Electromagnetic Fields (EMF). There are several other forums for this purpose. This is just a group for people with hypersensitivities who want to reduce or eliminate them.

This condition is known as Electrical Sensitivity (ES), Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EHS), Electrosensitivity, Electromagnetic Sensitivity (EMS), EMF Sensitivity, Electromagnetic Radiation Syndrome (EMR-S), Radio Wave Sickness, and Microwave Sickness.

Note that non-registered users will occasionally see advertisements mixed in with the messages, while registered user should not see any advertisements.

This forum is a continuation of the "eSens" Yahoo Group (esens@yahoogroups.com), which was abandoned due to changes at Yahoo Groups.

Note that there is a similar group on Facebook, for those who prefer discussing things on Facebook. Here it is: Electrical Sensitivity Support Group.
