MSG – What's It Like?
This is an attempt at describing what it's like to have MSG poisoning. This doesn't really come close to what happens to me.
As a reference point, I'm sure everyone has had some level of mental anguish in their life. Broke up with a lover, loved one died, etc. That's what happens to me. It attacks mostly in that area of my brain.
Imagine being in a car accident. Your arm wasn't cut off, it was ripped off. Most of your bones are crushed. You pass out, not from loss of blood, but from the agony. That's kind of what it's like. That's the level of pain. Except I can't pass out. It just keeps getting worse and worse.
Add to this the fact that, unlike a car accident where things happen instantly, I feel it coming. For hours. Many, many hours. I know what's coming. I have no idea how long it's going to take to peak, and I have no idea how bad it's going to get. This induces sheer terror knowing the level of pain that's coming.
It's not over yet. Every day I live with the fear of “did I miss something?”. How do you get that out of your head? It's like sitting in a cell in a Nazi interrogation prison. You've already been to the torture chamber several times. You know what they do. You know what it feels like. And now you're just waiting for your turn again.
Other than that, I'm just fine.
