I have an electronics and computer science background.Can someone recommend a reliable CO2 sensor I can hack into a mask like this? https://t.co/rRbkaP040t

I can likely build my own. I have access to HEPA filters and high airflow parts.https://t.co/numfKpH4Ud

I just realized that the robotic vacuum I bought to help me clean (when I can't get out of bed) also has one of these filters in in it. And when it's running at 100% power, seems to do more than 6cfm.Could actually build the PAPR in a cave.https://t.co/cH2dFOIWQs

I'm fucking miserable with masks.https://t.co/r08mt16wwE

@vgr I keep almost fainting everytime I go out with a mask for more than an hour. I end up overheating and struggling to breath. I still wear it, but I can understand why people would not want to. Been worried my GF will get heartattack because of hers. :(

I went shopping yesterday. This is not normal for me.I've been tracking this stuff for literal years to fix autism issues. It's not that.Getting above 100 means I'm in panic. Masks trigger heartrate increase every time. I start sweating buckets and can't think straight. https://t.co/cFVYnZ5b1E

I fixed my meltdowns and autism issues from going to stores (part of the reason my marriage ended was stress from that) and now I can't even go in one without feeling faint and feeling like I've ran a marathon. This sucks!https://t.co/9t0MdIs0Ra

@vgr Only thing that seems to work for more than an hour is a high airflow P100 I bought for mold remediation, and the cartridges are $$$ (and are spent)https://t.co/QcGV7jvUWk https://t.co/poJ3sXXMOP

I've experimented extensively. Its not anxiety about people. it's not fear over the virus. It's not my ability to breath in general (I can exercise+walk+run just fine).It is whenever breath is restricted.Consistent. Everytime. I think its this:https://t.co/NDPSn5z2qD

@vgr Like... we literally use CO2 to test panic attacks in the labhttps://t.co/PSC674B43Dand it's fucking huge factor in behavior https://t.co/ts9VHea1la https://t.co/5Tvv70tMmX

Please wear masks.Please don't shame people for struggling to wear masks.I think if we can figure out this weird CO2/Heartrate/Blood Pressure thing it would help people avoid anxiety/panic responses from wearing masks correctly and reduce non-compliance.

Shame and status games won't do shit to increase mask compliance if the problem is litterally rooted in biological factors focusing around around panic/anxiety.Why do you think people are fighting mask wearing so hard?Corner and yell at a panic'd dog, and it bites you. Duh.

Thinking a lot about "White-Coat Hypertension" and how I might be able to correlate location with blood pressure.https://t.co/v0UOt6iGvh
