is this mold toxic? is it going to kill me?


Question Posted Wednesday August 18 2010, 12:37 am

I recently got a cough and I open my window when i sleep because i fear breathing in toxic mold. tonight i opened the window and there is mold on the inside like a beige color with olive green. i never realized this, but is this how i developed my cough?! I have a Quietflo hunter air purifier in my room and it states that it clears mold and allergins from bedrooms. I am insanely scared that i won't wake up or drop dead randomly like brittany murphy because of gay mold. i told my parents that i also have a cough and that i think there is mold on our basement steps and they yelled at me. They do absolutely anything to not have an inspection. what can i do to keep myself safe? anyone have advice? do you think this mold is poisonous?

You need to see your family doctor or a therapist to talk about your growing paranoia.

It is very unlikely that the mold is dangerous. It's damn near impossible that it is going to kill you. I would place my entire life savings on it being more likely you'll be squashed by a grand piano tomorrow then you'll die of mold related illnesses in the next two years.

What absolutely IS going to happen is that you are going to make yourself ill with obsessive worrying. You need to speak to a doctor or a therapist about your stress and fears. They are out of control.
