Spent the week dealing with bedbugs & scabies (I live in Public Housing) so I am not going to let anyone in my room anymore. Or even let them stand near me, period. that was a hell week I don’t ever want to go through again. Good thing I don’t smoke in bed because I soaked my mattress seams with rubbing alcohol and wrapped the whole mattress with plastic and sealed it up. that seems to have gotten all the bugs quite dead. Scabies treatment is just a cream you put on your entire body, even under the fingernails, using an old toothbrush. And they gave me some pills that put your lights out (says on the information sheet that it’s for putting people to sleep for surgery) so I was able to sleep the night through without itching, first time in weeks. I have had such childhood trauma and have AUDHD-- I thought , when I saw the blood spots on my sheets, that I was picking my skin again as I did in my younger years. And I just thought I had hives, which I did, but they were from the bedbug bites. Good grief I’m so vigilant now I am driving myself insane checking the bedseams over and over but I haven’t seen a single one for a long time now. I feel so bad for the people in this building who can’t even summon the energy to deal with this stuff so they drink themselves to sleep or take crack or meth or fentanyl or whatever. We lose a person about every month to drugs or alcohol. I gotta get out of this building lol
