David, Trauma: Bedbug Bites
Bedbug bites on David's leg. David's story:
"I'm having a hard time even walking and definitely not sleeping because of the itchy feelings and pain. And when I do finally fall asleep I keep waking up turning on the lights thinking I'm being bit. I haven't found a single bedbug since the hotel incident and I've spent many sleeping and waking hours freaked out that bugs could be crawling on me hence I keep waking up and checking everything around me.
"My wife thinks I'm a nut case because I'm so freaked out over this and she thinks I'm driving myself crazy, which I probably am :) She's kicked me out of the bed until I get over my obsession and its sad that my colleagues that a few steps back when I tell my story as if I'm some contagious freak which just makes matters worse. Oh well, at least I start vacation tomorrow with my family, so hopefully things turn around..."
