I have purchased a new mattress. The old one will be disposed of. That's what it gets for trying to kill me... and coming so close to succeeding. Damn you, cheap ass pillowtop!
I found out that my batshit OCD may be the reason that I didn't have major allergy problems until the past few years. I had been making a conscious effort to be more like a sane person, part of which was acclimating myself to washing my hair once a day instead of two... or three... or nine times a day. Well, it turns out that I may have been avoiding exposure to allergens during the night by washing all the dust and pollen out of my hair. In an attempt to maintain some connection, however tenuous, to sanity, I am rinsing my hair at night and it seems to be helping pretty significantly. I sneeze and wheeze during the day, but I am not experiencing swelling in my throat overnight. Chalk up a point for my crazy.
As for all the other madness, it's still ongoing, but every day is one more little baby mutant step towards sanity.
