Well, the other day i had a mosquito-like bite and it itched like it too. Only different thing about it is it sorta stings a tiny bit when i itched it. I only got suspicious when later i noticed that the area around the bite kinda swelled up a bit. Now that made me wonder what had bit me, but i am starting to worry, because yesterday there was more bites. And this morning i counted 9 bites, one on my stomach, the rest on my right forearm. and i just found another on my upper right arm, totalling 10 bites. So, what the FUCK is going on? As far as i know theres nothing around i'm allergic to. I don't think a mozzie could have done it. maybe a spider? or some kind of fucked up insect?

Probably a spider.

slenderman is pinching you hes so slender you can't see it happen i've had this kind of thing before never really did find out.
Sure the other 'bites' are really bites and you're not just being paranoid over little blotchy areas of skin or something?
If you sleep without a shirt it is a possibility that mosquitos are biting you while you sleep.
Seems like you're allergic to mosquito bites or something. Or Zombies. Very odd Zombies.
[QUOTE=sltungle;17473180]Sure the other 'bites' are really bites and you're not just being paranoid over little blotchy areas of skin or something?[/QUOTE] They were like raised 'plateus' at first then they went down to bumps. like mozzie bites. I think i might put all of my clothes in the wash?
I'd guess a spider or else bed bugs. They're actually real ya know.
Mites, bed bugs, or chiggers.
I would agree on bed bugs. BUT my sister started receiving these weird bites too. Or maybe an allergic reaction. Spread from her legs to her stomach and arms. She changed beds multiple times though.

Sorry man, but it sounds like you have [b]bed bugs.[/b] You need to tell your parents immediately. Bed bugs were a huge problem back in the early industrial era, but were extinguished for the most part by the use of DDT, a harmful chemical that is poisonous to the central nervous system. Since the use of DDT has since been banned, bed bugs are coming back at an alarming rate. [b]You can first check if you have bed bugs by going into your room and lifting the sheets and mattress cover off of your bed. Look for the folds on the corners of your mattress and flip them up.[/b] If you see black bugs that are tiny, then you have bed bugs and it won't stop until you throw the mattress away, and everything else that is cloth in your room. This may even include carpeting. [b]Bed bugs are attracted by CO2 emitted by your breathing, and also the warmth of your body at night.[/b] If you really want to know more, just clicky the link: [url]http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/bedbugs[/url] This is the Havard School of Public Health's article on bed bugs and what you can do to stop their rein of terror. [b]Extinguish those fuckers.[/b]

Sounds like either a bed bug or an ant bite.
Do you have dogs in the house, or cats? if so fleas

I haven't been around any type of biting bugs (That I know of) recently.
I've had similar cases like this where usually it occurs once and stops for about a month... is that bed bugs or fleas? Because usually it stops if I flea bath my dogs
Do you see little black dots in the middle? If so you got chigger bites. This is very weird because I recently got my first case of them last weekend going paint balling. They itch like hell for a couple of days..

These are bed bug bites straight from google. [media]http://www.bbsteamatic.com/Portals/42676/images//Bed%20Bug%20Bites.jpg[/media] If this is what the bites look like, then sorry bro, looks like you got em'.
When we went to New York for vacation my parents picked on or two up in their suitcase. They only infested their room but we ended up replacing the mattress and pillows, taking the room apart and steam cleaning everything every week. They can also live in dark areas of carpet, wooden furniture or in power sockets. Basically anywhere that is dark. These guys can live for up to a year without feeding, seeing as we also caught a few and tried to see what things would kill them. Basically you just have to be anal about leaving stuff on the floor of your room, making sure no sheets are touching the ground and that your bed is a few feet away from things they can climb onto. If you wrap your bed legs in plastic they will have a hard time climbing them. You should check out some websites for more information.
[QUOTE=Diagger;17476094]If you wrap your bed legs in plastic they will have a hard time climbing them.
