Today, I found out I have sodium fluoride poisoning. Apparently, my water has a high level of sodium fluorine. I've been drinking much more water lately trying to be healthier. FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Today, I heard on television that a body was found in my city's water reservoir. Word is that it was dead for over a week. I've been drinking and showering with that water. FML
The bloat
Today, I realized I need to cut back on drinking. Not booze, but water. I compulsively drink so much water that my body is bloated from water absorption and I have to pee constantly. FML
The first step is admitting it
Today, I found myself sitting in the bathroom at work searching the internet for the alcohol and caloric content of cool mint Listerine. I now believe that I may have a problem. FML
Too late
Today, I woke up, took a shower, made some pasta, drank 3 glasses of water and brushed my teeth. I then left my apartment to see signs posted all over warning us not to use the water without boiling it because the water company just found E-coli in the water. FML
This is actual irony, Alanis
Today, I'm starting to have a chlorine sensitivity. I'm a swimming teacher. FML
Today, I noticed a thick layer of mold growing inside the straw of my water bottle. I use that bottle every day. FML
Wardrobe change please
Today, I choked on water so hard that I threw up and shat myself. FML
Today, I found out the reason I've been itchy for the last two weeks is because I'm now allergic to chlorine. I'm also a swimming instructor. FML
Give it to me
Today, my parents took my to hospital with headache, cramps, sweats and tremors. The doctor thought I was an drug addict in withdrawal, which, after some questions, turns out I am. I gave up fizzy soda last week and am in total withdrawal from caffeine and all the other addictive chemicals in soda. FML
Today, my brother started ranting about how fluoridated water is a conspiracy to "turn people gay". I said the government must be doing a shit job of it, since he's been drinking the stuff longer than I've been alive and is still married to a woman. He punched me so hard, my vision blacked out. FML

I didn't even know that was actually possible.... just try and drink bottled water instead of from the tap. it'll hopefully prevent that.

If FML has taught us anything, it is that when you try bad things happen.

You should talk to the water company and let them know.

I'd recomend investing in a good filter for the tap. I use a pitcher by 'ZeroWater'. Its a bit more expensive than others on the market, but its the best brand I've found. You can find them at stores like Wal Mart and Target. Good luck, and I hope you get better soon op.

This is actually ridiculously common. They pump the water full of fluoride even though multiple studies have proven this is dangerous. Invest in a good water filter and if you happen to see a petition for your area, tell your representatives to knock that mess off.

hell, if you don't see a petition, make one! a contaminated water supply is a community issue, regardless of if there's already a petition out.

Sadly you're really not suppose to drink tap water, go buy the bottles or a really good filter.

Something similar happened to me a few years back, only it was Arsenic and I got horrible migraines and tremors. Invest in a good water filter. It costs a lot initially, but you can't put a price on good health. Feel better.
