Its interfering with my daily life since many things like cell phones, computers, tv, supposedly emit wireless "radiation". And the zinger is that i enjoy these things a lot. My new fear is the wireless " radiation" from the playstation 4 game system controller? I have the fear with my cell phone too- and i dont even have to be talking on it- just the fact that its on when im browsing the web on it wirelessly or if its too close to my body, i put it on "airplane" mode. I know, all of this is pretty neurotic/obsessive

"Radiation" covers a large range of things, such as heat and light, and for the things you mentioned is nowhere the same "radiation" that you would be harmful to you like from a nuclear reactor or UV light.

Irrational fears are pretty normal, I think, for most of us. Personally, I've spent my entire life around all things electrical. The physics behind it doesn't produce enough radiation to be harmful even over years of exposure.
I have lots of irrational fears, too, but anything electrical, wireless or otherwise are not on the list. Wanna trade for a while? LOL! I could use a break from mine and I'm guessing you could use a break from yours.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
