Hi all
For quite a long time now I've been obsessed with worrying about chemicals in furniture and toiletries and paints. I'm seeing a therapist who's helping a bit.
I know this makes me sound stupid but tonight I was using a sealer to seal up the little holes inside the kitchen cupboards which are there in case you want to move shelves up and down. The cupboards are lacquered mdf and I was so worried about the mdf off gassing through the holes. Now I'm worried about the off gassing of the sealer, though it says it's low voc and I assume it will cure and go hard in about a day.
I've also recently bought completely natural furniture polish as I was so worried about chemicals in the wax polish I had before.
Is anyone else like me? I'm worried that I'm going mad and soon won't be able to function at all.
I wonder whether I should start antidepressants. MY doc thinks they may help but I'm scared of the side effects.
Thanks for reading.
