Are dust traps what you call the crap in your asbestos-dominated world. I've been searching the whole damn day for air purifiers that handle asbestos, the best I found were these Pullman machines, which seemed to have two rental providers... one in Luleå and one in Stockholm. I'll now search using the word dust traps.

Staying with a well-informed friend, who knows all the treacherous properties of asbestos. Unfortunately, I don't want to burden him, and he probably doesn't want me here for over a month...
If it is your friend who has scared you so insanely like this, then this person is NOT your friend.

It is a sadist who encourages and enjoys seeing your suffering.

Move back home to Mom and Dad instead.
 
In your previous thread -"Is this an asbestos roof?"- you received the following advice; "Raddforasbest, you have received such good answers from us, despite your sometimes tough attitude. We've reached the point where we can't go any further. I think you need to call in an expert on site who can test and check. We can't help you more than we have, the number of responses indicates it's not asbestos you have. If you're not satisfied with these answers, move on to someone who can inspect it. Best regards Stefan, Moderator" I think it applies to this thread as well. In your own words; "I have hypochondria and it's making me seriously paranoid." "You don't need to tell me that I'm paranoid, I already know" "away... I ran out of the house as soon as I saw what was going on, closed my open window, and ran out through the hedge..." "You don't know what it's like to live with hypochondria. I keep thinking about this all the time." "The anxiety became too much. I had to leave the asbestos zone for a few hours for so-called damage control." In this thread -"The house is full of asbestos, how to proceed?"- You have continued in the same style; "Anxiety here! "Yesterday I had a major panic attack, when I noticed that there was work going on in the kitchen, the house is from '68, townhouse model. So several houses that are exactly the same." "I've never had such a direct panic attack as I had when I went into the kitchen and saw this. I immediately ran out and stayed at a friend's house last night. NOW it's like this that I get access to an apartment on September 1, as you can see it's quite a long time until then. The plan now is to move out to a 9sqm cabin located about 10 meters from the asbestos residence. Thank you for your responses (a benzed asbestos neurotic.)" "Yesterday I was at the psychiatric emergency room and got fun pills. That's where my anxiety lies." "I'm also wearing clothes from the house, but I think that it can't be a particle and then you die? I'm not a troll but a very anxious, scared person, so everything I write is true and how I think." "But seriously...... can't you think theoretically at all?" "You're a psychopath... here I am at a friend's place and might have to be in a cabin for over a month." "So there is the cabin, but it was pouring rain yesterday when I was supposed to equip it, I couldn't handle it all and went to the psychiatric emergency room" Your posts unfortunately indicate that you have ended up in the wrong forum. We probably can't help you. I think you'll find better help here: http://www.netdoktor.se/psykiatri/artiklar/panikangest http://www.netdoktor.se/psykiatri/artiklar/hypokondri or discuss here: http://www.doktorsguiden.se/forum/sjukdomar?page=1 :cool:

Now I'm mostly thinking about my own health. They have the advantage that they might not even be around in 20-30 years when the effects of the asbestos come. Even though I don't mean it that way.

But now me. Where should little me go in such an asbestos-filled world? I haven't thought about a caravan.
The ironic thing is that your anxiety about asbestos shortens your life significantly more than actual asbestos would have...
 
TS, the most important advice for you is, as mentioned, to address your pathological fear of asbestos. It is an illness you are dealing with - not asbestos.

A part of the treatment process is to understand and accept that asbestos is not a danger to you. A tip here can be to call the Swedish Work Environment Authority and ask for their assessment of how dangerous asbestos is for you. After all, they are the authority in Sweden that should have the best knowledge of the dangers of asbestos and should be able to provide a qualified answer.

It's supposed to be a fucking asbestos filter....

If I put it in the house, the asbestos will disappear fucking right??
It has a HEPA13 filter. So it works perfectly for that, yes.

And cheaper than buying an apartment, so it will probably be a good solution.


edit:
One of those would be nice to buy for yourself, and use in the garage so you can spray-paint there. ;)
 
No, only the asbestos that probably isn't in the air anyway.

Let's not be like that, I think.

The original poster has found a reasonable solution to cure their worry, which is also within the bounds of possibility. Isn't that good enough?

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet.

I will lick it on the back, it's so nice so nice. (benzad). If I put it in the house, my parents will also avoid asbestos, then I have it running in my room while I need to stay.

By the way, I can strongly recommend Verktygproffsen. Fast delivery and good support!

What do you think he should rent tomorrow when he starts worrying again? Because he will! No, fix the real problem instead (the one in his head) otherwise, it will end up in an oxygenated plastic bubble, and I don't think THAT is reasonable!

I always have worry, but my worry about asbestos is enormous and I have never had such worry, so I actually believe this is a long-term relief. I already feel that it is a short-term relief. It's like the machine itself has sucked in my anxiety like an inverted Dementor (Harry Potter).

Yes and ???

You have already given your advice, there's not much more you can do.
No one is asking for more than that either. Not even that, it is completely voluntary for both you and me to give opinions and advice, and for the OP to receive or not.

So.
There are a few things this might be:
The OP is a troll, in which case we've walked right into the trap. 🙂
At least those of us writing. But as mentioned, it's voluntary, and it might be wise to abstain if you hate being fooled by internet trolls.

The OP has a real psychological phobia. In that case, the correct advice would be to seek help for it. You've already mentioned this, as have a few others, so that advice has been put forth clearly enough.
If it's a true phobia, it cannot be tackled with rational arguments or logic.
A full-fledged spider phobic will be affected not at all by statements that the house has been thoroughly checked for spiders, that there are no dangerous spiders in Sweden, that the spiders are actually more scared themselves, etc., etc.
And being flippant doesn't help either. I'm somewhat regretful that I have been a bit flippant myself, but I haven't quite decided if it's a troll or someone with a phobia I'm reading posts from.

Anyhow, the problem a person experiences as their biggest problem is that person's biggest problem. It doesn't matter if it's small or irrational. It doesn't matter that people in Syria are dying and being tortured.
So if someone finds an irrational solution to their problem, then it's perfectly OK.

Then the OP should really seek help for their problems if this is all real. I agree with that. But that doesn't conflict with alleviating symptoms with other means in the meantime.

I have recurring follow-up meetings with my psychiatrist. I will bring this up properly next time. Having been to the psychiatric emergency room should make him realize how it affects me. Until then, I will purify all the air from asbestos, something that gives me peace to live there.
