Wi-Fi & indoor exposure

I am an individual consumer attesting that I suffered from insomnia, anxiety and heart palpitations before I started turning off my phone and my wifi at night. If I travel and cannot turn off wifi the symptoms reappear. My mom lives by a cell tower. When she stays at my house for over one week her insomnia and anxiety dissppear.

I am a parent who's kids were born in 1991, 1993, 1996 & 1998. My first 2 kids have severe mental disorders that keep them from being able to function in society. ADHD and Paranoia, Schizophrenia, addiction are the diagnosis. They were allowed to use internet devices as much as other kids their age. My youngest 2 adult kids suffer sleeplessness and compulsive internet use, also the heath issues associated with low sleep quality like irritability and anger outbursts, both of them spending up to 16 hours per day online after graduating school. Depression and non hodgkins lymphoma cancer almost took my youngest Sons life. He has to continue to be screened. I cannot sleep with a cell phone near me. I turn mine on airplane mode every night, and try to keep it several feet from my sleeping quarters but I worry that it's still receiving signal like scanning for wifi or something I don't know about, since warnings are NOT ISSUED.. I would much rather just have a good old rotary phone wired into my home. The distractions on online browsing and social media has eaten up HUNDREDS, MAYBE THOUSANDS (?) of hours of my Lifetime.. I only started using it in 2002 I think we need to move away from using a phone & wifi for EVERYTHING WE DO! It's not natural for kids to be sitting down obsessing on a browser or video game and making online friends instead of real life friends.. IT STUNTS THEIR EMOTIONAL, PHYSICAL & MAYBE EVEN SPIRITUAL GROWTH. I am now raising a grandson who my adult child is not able to due to untreated mental disorders and addiction. He suffers from ADHD and struggles with the desire to engage in compulsive internet usage as well. He has fits of rage when he must stop even after hours of use.. THEY JUST CANT GET ENOUGH. There's also terrible MOOD SWINGS associated with having to stop playing or watching online video platforms. He has short attention span and highly distracted and distracting to others in the classroom at school. I have removed all gaming devices, tablet, phone etc so he can just focus on reality. ALL THIS JUNK IS DISTRACTING KIDS AND MAKING EDUCATION AN UPHILL BATTLE FOR PARENTS. ITS A WALL BETWEEN THEM AND THEIR EDUCATION AND REAL LIFE SOCIAL EXPERIENCES, RELATIONSHIPS AND BONDING WITH FAMILY & FRIENDS. Thank you for listening to my experience and my warnings.. the internet is disconnecting our youth from their true friends family and FUTURE.

I have been electrically sensitive to emf/rf frequencies for over 20 years. Everywhere I go there is just more 5g, wi-fi and Bluetooth. We are saturated in wireless and our bodies were not made for this. It affects me in several ways: I have ADHD like symptoms when around wireless, I have tunnel vision when using Bluetooth and I get headaches & nausea as well. I think our standards are out dated and those that are sensitive are often mocked and looked down upon by those not sensitive. The only way I can gain much relief is through not using the technology which makes it difficult to function in today’s society. I worry about young children who are still growing with more soft tissue that the waves can penetrate. It’s far overdue for someone to ask for comment and I hope this time will be well spent and that standards can be raised and that independent research be conducted. Thank for your efforts!

I am responding as an individual consumer, a parent, and a concerned citizen. I first started to learn about the hazards of EMF's when I started to experience severe and symptomatic arrythmias in my mid-30's. Since then, I have recovered and improved my sleep immensely by turning off our WiFi when not in use, hardwiring devices like TV's, computers and laptops, and having our smartmeters (power and gas) replaced with analog meters. Everyone in our family noticed better sleep, my daughter's nose bleeds stopped, my son who was experiencing distressing symptoms from heart arrythmia improved, our family dog who used to have his crate on the wall near the smart meter began to grow hair. That was all the evidence we needed, but unfortunately, we have been unable to control the installation of wireless towers near our home and/or massive panel additions to existing panels. There has been the installation of 5G (all while adding to 2G, 3G and 4G) with 6G on the way. We also cannot control the "general electrosmog" from other neighbor's smart meters, WiFi, devices, appliances, etc, etc. We need the FCC to revisit the undeniable impact of EMF's on our cellular biology, disease factors, impact on nature and the environment, and more. Such studies stopped decades ago while the industry explodes unchecked and that is telling. We need ongoing health studies, industry transparency and regulation to protect residential areas and schools.

If I am on the phone at times it triggers Tinnitus then I have to disconnect and will slowly go away. My hand feels a burn sensation at times on my dominant hand and more severity fluctuations and have to go off the phone. It at times affects my heart rythm and then I immediately disconnect. I used to spend more time on my phone until my thumb started twitching and so I thought to go on a social media fast and get off my phone for two weeks and my thumb came right. My body feels irritated by WiFi and Blue tooth.. can't tolerate it for too long and then I feel miserable and irritated. When I get home, I walk barefoot on the earth for about 5-10min and it helps My stomach will feel a burn sensation and I have to move away from the phone. I believe it does not stay within safety parameters. Also, I am very sensitive and I think I have less of a protective layer around my nerve cells(Myelin sheath...BTW my systemic Lupus is in Remission).

We, as humans, are exposed everywhere we go to the “WiFi Soup” surrounding us. We can’t go on a cruise, an airplane, a grocery store-anyplace- without exposure to electromagnetic radiation. Babies are conceived under WiFi, and born under WiFi. For we who are sensitive, heavy electro radiation frequencies feel like a tight stab in our chests. We can counteract and get some relief from the damage by grounding mats, walking on the earth or sand. I’ve known about these dangers since 2012, and it’s still barely even known about by your average person. Please, let’s create federal laws around this, and not bow down to the greed of major corporations that profit from using these dangerous electromagnetic frequencies that affect our health. M.

wife has been suffering with effects from cell phone and wifi since purchasing i phone in 2018

I started turning off Wi-Fi when I sleep and I am so much healthier. Please rain in emf. Bill Frey

I have been affected by EMF's for years, especially radiofrequency and Cell Towers. I have noticed it more as I get older. Since I live in an apartment, I know I have the exposure from every wi-fi around me. Across the street from me, there are cell phone towers on top of the office building. I have been treated by different holistic practitioners over the years. I know I have a lot of fatigue associated with this, heart palpitations and various other symptoms. At least I know where my health problems come from. Most people do not. Why have they not done fiber optics. That is suppose to be a much safer way.. Thank you for looking further into this.

I am responding as an individual consumer and parent. I’m 52 but my cognition is sometimes that of a 92 year-old due to EMFs. I eat healthy, whole, organic food; take care of my mental health; incorporate daily movement into an already active life as a partner-free mama to a nine year-old; and go to sleep between 9-10pm, yet smart meters and WiFi from adjoining houses prevent me from sleeping through the night. What EMFs are doing to the younger populations who have never known a world without 5g towers and the like is unbelievable. Please study these: https://substack.com/redirect/fa0e0b40-9971-4f20-8a7d-b24d9db59e1d?j=eyJ1IjoiNHY5bWEifQ.ThwqzKXOhra7eQnIDlMYDXIXp9lVxrwpuABHg4Ox3AE Thanks, Viv
