I was researching TMS and some of the symptoms are similar. I am waiting for testing in my room.  I'm going through a very traumatic separation and it's hit me bad. I've been in a basement bedroom about 8-9 months now and lost my mind in the process.

Was diagnosed 15 yrs ago with BP. Rediagnosed  with BPD in November 2021. Some of my health problems came after I moved into that room. Itchy legs, headache, joint inflammation,  brain buzz ir "fuzziness", cognitive impairment, extreme fatigue/lethargy, painful muscles and joints, weak limbs, hot/cold flashes, night sweats, loss of libido, ear infections that won't go away, insomnia (or no minimal deep sleep), candida, sugar and alcohol cravings (I quit drinking though), depression mood swings, blablabla ...

Some things are symptoms of other health problems I have but have gotten worse since moving home. ER treats me like a mental patient and brushes off symptoms I'm physically experiencing as mental illness because it's in my record and my tests and labs are the only "normal" thing about me right now. Not that I'm complaining about normal labs or anything ...

I've been telling my doctor for a few months that something is wrong with my brain because I keep feeling phyiso/neurological symptoms. Like "Brain on fire."

It would be a huge task to manage if mold is the culprit but it would also be soooo gratifying that me not being able to keep my shit together is from my environment and my sanity is actually just a casualty.

Now I'm wondering if this could reach back into childhood because there was definitely black mold in our old home, which is directly across the street. Perhaps I hadn't been out of the environment long enough to fully detox from it. Then add trauma through 41 years and you have a woman who may have bounced back had her environment not been psychologically and biologically toxic.

I'm going to go take a nap but what are your thoughts/experiences?
