For over 15 years I am electrohypersensitive . In the beginning it was only to wifi . In the meantime I am sensitive to all kinds of high frequency radiation and also to electrical and magnetical fields .

My story began when I first had a wifi installed in my house . I was recovering from an infection at that time and at a certain point I became so ill that I couldn’t take care of myself . For over 2 years I wasn’t able to talk fluently , to walk as I used to walk , I was sensitive to sound , light , my sleep was completely disturbed , … I didn’t know what was going on .

At a certain point in time , my next door neighbour had solar panels installed on her roof . Nothing wrong with that .

But around that time my health deteriorated even more and … the higher I came in my house , the more ‘drunk’ I felt ; and when I again came to the ground floor , that ‘drunk’ feeling improved a little bit . This was so strange .

Thank God I had at that time a very good GP , medical doctor , who asked me about ‘changes in my environment’ and laughingly , not knowing why he asked me that , I jokingly said : ‘hahaha , my neighbour has put solar panels on the roof.’

My GP ’s reaction was very serious , saying : ‘this can become a different story’ .

I then asked a mitigation expert from the Netherlands (at that time there weren’t many) and I had the wifi switched off and some other changes .

AND in less than 2 weeks time I again became ‘a different person’ , again functioning normally , feeling much healthier , so many symptoms and sensitivities disappeared .

In the course of those 15 years I’ve tried to cope with the increasing amount of radiation , but unfortunately in the past 7 years my health again has gotten worse . There is too much radiation for me and I also became sensitive to electrical and magnetical fields .

I have no wireless devices of any kind in my house and my electricity network is shielded .

But my neighbours , the community , the town … the amount of EMF has exploded in the past years .

It has become very hard , or hardly impossible to leave my house , to have a social life , to visit relatives or friends and even then I am ill each and every day .

Is there a place for us , people with EHS , where we can live a healthy life ?
