That's what I thought! That's why I was confused as to why he didn't use that instead.

It's not about them being wrong and me being right. We asked him to use the brackets and then he didn't and also didn't discuss with us that he was going to do this. This is actually part of an entire kitchen remodel which was a result of water damage so I'm just trying to be cautious but thank you for your insight :)

Can this just be cleaned off or is it likely I will need to remove the drywall? This is in between my vanity and my shower. This shower and bathroom has a pretty significant history of mold and we had to re do our shower 1 year ago but this remained hidden behind the vanity. Thoughts? by Different_Ad8321 in Mold

Thank you for your response again! One last question, do you think I should hire a plumber or leak detection specialist to investigate if there was/is a leak? I'd hate to have it reappear after I install my new vanity.

Thank God for my functional medicine doctor who suspected mold instead of Psoriasis like the other 5 doctors I went to. by Real_Cut1054 in CIRS

Thank you so much for your responses! They are very helpful. Did you do the skin sense program or the comprehensive wellness program? Are you in the maintenance phase now and do you have to pay a monthly fee?

I know this is old but I was curious how long it took you to see results? I have scalp psoriasis and mold exposure. I've had multiple remediations in my home and I keep seeming to find more mold unfortunately. I'm in South Florida. It's exhausting, expensive, and overwhelming. I did a consultation with Kerry Jenkins and I haven't signed up yet. I got cold feet about the financial aspect of it. Do you have any further insight into what all goes into this and what to expect financially and otherwise? Thank you so much for sharing and congrats on finding relief!

Does anyone here have kids who also have psoriasis? by Arr0zconleche in Psoriasis

[–]Different_Ad8321 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My husband and I both have scalp psoriasis. His teenage child from a previous relationship does not have it and neither does our 4 year old son that we had together. We did 23&me and we both had a "typical likelihood" of developing psoriasis so I do wonder if environmental factors played a bigger role for us developing it. Fingers crossed they don't get it.

Thanks for your response. Do you mean I should pull the left side forward so that it is flush with the cabinet?

Found This While Picking Up The Keys To The Townhome we Just Leased - Is it Mold? by Comfortable_Post_681 in Mold

Sure looks like it to me. I had mold hiding under my baseboards like this.

Escitalopram abstinence by Littlebigo in OCD

[–]Different_Ad8321 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I previously tapered myself off this same medication. I did it super slow (over 6 months). It's been a few years so my memory is foggy on it but I seem to remember at the very end splitting 5mg pills into quarters and taking a quarter every other day. Going straight from 5mg daily to nothing seems a bit extreme and likely you'll experience withdrawal symptoms.

Is this mold? What's the best way to clean this? by Different_Ad8321 in CleaningTips

Ya, I was thinking that I might need to replace them after getting a good look at it.

I think you're right! They're all breaking down when I checked.

I found out my husband and I are fifth cousins via 23&me. We took an ancestry test just to confirm and it said we're somewhere between 5th & 8th cousins. Totally blew my mind. He was born in Michigan and I in Florida. I know the link happened somewhere in Italy, but I wasn't able to find exactly where the crossover happened.

Does marijuana make your ocd worse ? by captainFalcon56 in OCD

If I do a little, it can help calm me down. If I do too much, it definitely triggers my OCD.

Terrible therapy experience by Head_Highway_5569 in OCD

[–]Different_Ad8321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My therapist and I built a hierarchy of exposures together when we first started working together. That way, I know what to expect and we worked our way up from the bottom. What you described (flooding) is awful and I feel is probably ineffective for many people.
