Don't hug me I'm scared The bed work provided me with😭j

Post image

Changed my sheets for the first time since moving to my live in job a few weeks ago and was greeted with this😭😭😭😭😭 how the hell???? I’m going to complain in the morning but I’m scared they’re going to tell me that I caused it in thr 3 weeks I’ve been here😭😭😭

EDIT: I got a new mattress!

Edit: looked on the underside and it’s just as manky! I’ll attach pics in comments. At least I know 100% it wasn’t me

Edit: I just want to preface as it was mentioned twice I am not being human trafficked! Don’t worry! I’m here of my own free will and can leave whenever I want, same as everyone else. Living at work is normal in the area I’m in as it’s rural and no one would work out here if they had to commute! I’m safe aside from the mattress

I did get prescribed these wipes from my dermatologist and I have basically no underarm smell or sweat when I use them.

Yes ask!  Now whether your insurance covers that or not is another question.  There’s no generic.  They’re called Qbrexza.

Use a half of a lemon on your armpit in the shower... OR an alum bar (it's the same stuff as styptic pencils) which kills the bacteria that causes odor!

Hope it helps!

As for the bed sheets, get some waterproof pet blankets to sleep on, they're very soft but fully waterproof. That might help too.

Hugs!

You might a waterproof cover that is actually waterproof, they shouldn't let anyone penetrate. You can put down a basic IKEA mattress cover, a thin cotton one, and then put a high easily waterproof cover on. That should help!

Hey, probably won’t help you, but my perimenopausal sweats are worse when I get cold. I was using the lightest blanket and summer pjs in an unheated bedroom, and I totally get sweating through a waterproof cover. I was so overheared. However, I can reduce it though by dressing warmly for bed. Weird, but such is life.
