Has Anyone Else Experienced This?

This post was updated on .

I've only shared my EMS with my family, four grown children. Three of them anyway, I've shared with. Two of them don't want to hear about it and the other one I feel doesn't think there's really anything amiss with me, thinks it's all in my head. So I try not to bring it up with any of them. Also, I have no friends who I would try to share it with. ES Forum is my only outlet and I truly appreciate it! I don't think it's only in my head because it hurts terrible even though I try to tell myself that nothing adverse is happening to me. Anyway, just wondering if anyone else has experienced what I've explained above? Thanks a bunch

Peacefulness,
Kay

Yes, I tend not to bring it up with anyone, unless there is a good reason to.
People are generally ignorant of the condition, although I imagine
at some point it will become mainstream/accepted.

Yes Kay,

My family know about my es, but actually don't really fully accept it/

want to accept, and are constantly making assumptions which are only

valid if I don't have it . They don't want to talk about it: it feels like a

battle-ground instantly if I even raise it - so I keep it to myself when the effects

are bad. Some friends however, (very few) instantly cotton on to

the gravity of the situation, and how it changes my life and how deeply it

effects me. But this is very rare : these few people do the fantastic service

for me of reminding me what an open-minded and humane response would

look like, when I very rarely get it!

This helps me to be humane with myself and keep my sanity, and this

I think can be very difficult. It is important I think not to minimise the

problem, or just hope it goes away : much better to take it seriously and

protect yourself as you can , even if others around you don't understand that.

It may get worse if just ignored and wished away,

best wishes, Sylvan Moir.

Well, a really scientific report has been written by Genuis & Lipp.
It is called: *Electromagnetic hypersensitivity: Fact or fiction?
Its content is very objective, and you can show it to anybody who thinks that EHS is not real.

You can download it at:

Kay, please don't despair about your family's reaction - time may change their attitude.
When I first became affected, my husband believed me 100% right away and has continued to do so. One adult child believed me as she, too, had begun to experience ES symptoms after a smart meter was installed. The other kids were skeptical with one saying that it was all in my head - get over it. Now, three years after becoming affected, all of my kids believe what I am saying and are trying to reduce their EMF exposure, but all have jobs where they are exposed to Wifi and other wireless devices and high EMF technology.

I purchased EMF meters and showed one daughter how her kids rooms facing a nearby cell tower were getting blasted with radiation. She allowed me to install shielding material on their bedroom walls and when she walked into the shielded room she said, "Oh, I can't believe it - it feels so peaceful in here compared to the other (unshielded) room." She kept going back and forth to "feel" the difference and kept saying "I can't believe it. I can feel this stuff!".

Hopefully, time will change your family's attitude, too.

why can't you just go and get some pills again my mum said .go figure.

people dont understand.
some try. and believe they do. which is nice of them.
some say one thing.... another time, something different. which can be hurtful. especially when it is people i am close to.
i talk about it. but i dont so much care to talk about it anymore. i just keep on.

Hello,

I'm new to this forum. I'm grateful to have found it.

I identify very much with your experience. When I first became hypersensitive my family did think it was all in my head. It was very difficult for me. I had two smart meters outside my bedroom. I didn't know anything about them. I became progressively worse with a host of symptoms. Long story short I had to move out of my apartment. It's been almost two years and I still don't have a steady place to live that is free of EMF exposure. I'm working on it though.

I've found that their are times that it can be productive to bring it up and times not so productive. My family has become more receptive and tend to believe me now. Well, most of them anyway. It is something that is very difficult for people to understand. I think back at how I used to live and how I wasn't aware of any of it. I would use my cell phone like it was nothing. Now it is something that I am constantly scanning for. Always looking for the cordless phone or wifi router etc. I've found that some people respond to my sharing about it with quite an open mind and others just go silent.

Anyway. My experience of it has improved. My symptoms don't seem to be as bad. I am still looking for something that will really help with the symptoms. It's difficult because their are so many scams out there.

Thank you all for being here

Welcome John Paul. Avoidance is the best.

Other things to help are supporting your thyroid with some iodine or kelp.

Taking daily magnesium and some calcium.
Fish oils.

A good multi vitamin.

Spring water or good filtered water.

Organic food if possible. Low carbs.

Thank you both.

Yeah actually I am taking all those you mentioned. Recently started taking supplements. It seems to be helping.

Thanks for your suggestions

I have no problem sharing my condition with family and friends, I guess hoping that someone might have an answer. Of course they think I'm crazy but generally respect it and leave the room when they have to make a call. The only effect I experience is tightening of the muscles on the sides of my head and some confusion and dis-orientation, and generally lasts for a couple of hours. The same thing happens with any kind of toxic fumes.
