Same!!!😭😭😭😭😭😭 I can't even talk when I'm around it cause my thoughts become so cloudy

I gotten sick from smelling those toxic vapes 🤢🤮😷

It's a definite problem. There have been times that I get an INSTANT powerful day-long migraine when someone with strong cologne or perfume enters a small classroom or sits nearby in a large room. Some C's & P's don't trigger this effect in me, so I think the chemical composition matters. Musky scents seem more dangerous to me than others, for example, but I don't think it's just that simple. I had a coworker with a similar problem, & we had another coworker who would NOT take us seriously. She took the opportunity to passive-aggressively torture us with more & more powerfully scented lotions & potions. She was a nasty piece of work.

​@@jennyjohnson5428 same thing happened to me my co-worker almost killed me with her excess perfume and lotions. It turns out that I have a very rare condition that could have been prevented. If I hadn't let the doctors and certain people in my life convince me into thinking I was causing the symptoms or they were all in my head. That is until one side of face dropped and I couldn't move the right side of my body. It's called hemicraina continua. Please take your concerns seriously.

I have the same problem. P

you aren't alone . do you also get the "under smell" ? I don`t often meet many others will hyperosmia.

you`re wrong I'm not sure what you mean by " under smell"

the smell underneath what they are trying to cover up , or a lady on her period a few isles away when at the grocery . things that are covered by poison but you smell both the poison and the other.

@@William.Shakespeare Yeah, personally i prefer the smell of BO, and as someone who was a caregiver for the last 3 years, i can tell you, the literal smells of urine & feces are preferable to most "cleansers" used by hospital staff [who more times than not, misused said controlled substances - like spraying in the air as they walked past a stinky patient despite the bottle LITERALLY saying "do NOT spray in air, only on stinky surfaces", seriously thr medical industry is full of some real idiots, like just abouy anybody can get hires by taking a class despite having an an IQ lower than a cat] although i will concede some peoples excretions can be particualrly noxious, especially if left uncleaned for too long.

Yes my brother has this really bad and he was very ill and a lot of doctors are not taking it seriously

me as well . you aren't alone . smelling a girl with her period 4 isles away , or all of that filth beneath the perfumes. yeah that sucks all day long .

r u ok now :(

Me too. Someone wore a perfume in a workshop and I had a bad headache afterwards and couldn't function for the rest of the day. It's difficult because I don't want to ask people not to wear perfume, but I also do want to ask them not to wear it as it makes me ill if I'm around it. Or maybe they could just use essential oils rather than all of those toxic chemical perfumes.

@@katec9893 you think essential oils are better than perfume? You do realise don’t you that essential oils are not a single molecule but sometimes hundreds of different fragrance molecules when you break them down? You sound totally unhinged and hysterical

@@Readyteddygo You don't seem to know what an essential oil is. I suggest you look up how they are produced, they are directly derived from plants through distillation. They're not made up of lots of different perfumes. You sound totally ignorant on this subject and and judging by your other comments, are using it as an opportunity to attack women who for some reason you utterly despise. I hope you seek therapy for your rage.

Agreed. I have this issue and perfumes make it so that my vision blurs and I feel nauseous.

@@Tangerinetaco Get a lawyer for accommodation denial. Your health is more important than a dab of bottle of perfume. You have right to work without exposure to chemical.

My brother has this really really bad after he got vitamin B6 toxicity and he has the MTHFR Gene which does not easily allow you to detox from the B6... so far he has had to deal with two of his doctors who are real a-holes cannot comprehend what he is going through . They try to make him THINK IT'S ALL IN HIS IMAGINATION ! When a person suffers from chemical sensitivities it actually DAMAGES the LIMBIC PART of the brain... the AMYGDALA also is in there and so one must do YOGA and MEDITATIONS that will help HEAL and STRENGTHEN that part of the brain . THEN a person is usually able to GRADUALLY LESSEN their chemical sensitivities . BUT I will tell you right now my brother is very ill and even has to WEAR A RESPIRATOR in his OWN CAR and he cannot go to any hotel or motel rooms

Perfume, paint, paint thinner, smoke, burned eggplant, avocado, certain flowers, laundry detergent, wool, chlorine... the list goes on. Makes me vomit and I get an instant migraine.

Literally Japan but without law. More like a norm.

Me too 😟 I smell it in the air from the laundromat and I have to leave. Hopefully you’ll get better, good luck 🍀

It's getting worst.. much worst than before,

I also have this Problem can't use fabric softeners theirs only one I can uses this is why i always uses the same one

me too, i get a sore throat and sometimes a full blown fever

Is there any cure you know guys ?

I'm so sorry for your wife but I am yet proud of what she accomplished and what she did to make people aware this is a real disease not a symptom.

I developed MCS after undergoing pepper foam training as a security officer at my local hospital. As I became more sensitive, I had to endure co-workers using products that I'd specifically told them made me sick just to see if I could tell. Constantly trying to "catch me" at faking it. I'd go on my rounds and while gone the nurses would wipe down the area with the cleaning wipes and when I'd get back I'd vomit within 20 minutes. And then they'd complain that I didn't stay in the emergency room lobby when they wanted to me to so they could go and goof off elsewhere. I've been out of a job now since 2015 because of MCS. I can't leave my home without wearing a heavy duty mask.

Wow ..that's really horrible and sad... my brother went through this years ago when he was a geophysicist working in the environmental field... and his own place of work actually had a sick building syndrome problem and treated him like shit about it especially after he contacted OSHA.. they had new rugs that were GLUED to the CEMENT floors and the glue was making him TERRIBLY ILL. Now years later his chemical sensitivities have EXPONENTIALLY gotten WORSE as he is vitamin B6 toxicity and is VERY ILL... regretfully he has to deal with several DOCTORS who are TOTAL A-HOLES who do not want to admit this is real and they're trying to pass it off as a PSYCHIATRIC problem ... this is so frustrating because the truth is chemical sensitivities or rather the chemicals at one point DAMAGE THE LIMBIC PART OF THE BRAIN which is where the AMYGDALA is , so then one needs to find YOGA EXERCISES and DO MEDITATION to help HEAL SLOWLY and STRENGTHEN that part of the brain and then they will often see some advances in their own tolerance .

That’s what’s going on to me.

@@gardensofthegods I’m going through this now.

I wish you another Seer would read my comments and responses that I put elsewhere about this

Maybe try desensitise yourself that never worked for me with lights (,autism ) but worth a try just try get used to smell a bit at a time. There's videos on hyperosmia on you tube.

It's The Same for Me with Certain foods,scented Oils and Detergents😢

Did you find a cure ?

People with issues are the ones who must adapt or die. I get seizures I know my triggers so I take accountability and do what I must to not get triggered.

I have been suffering for years and it appears that you are being dramatic. I need help

@Mara A i had this problem before I started my current medicines. I suffered a heavy exposure at work.

Cant you sue them?

Please read my comments and responses to others I'm getting tired of repeating myself

Hypochondria

Budget king....I also get this anything like strong Perfumes and chemical smells makes me weak and Tired straight away and also I get a fast heart beat at the same time what's happening the chemical smells makes your blood Pressure go up I have got a blood Pressure machine at home and when it does happen I take my blood Pressure by using my machine and the number Points on the machine are always high.

I was always able to smell things others just ignored. But, a recent carbon monoxide and aldehydes leak in the apartment building I live in activated my sense of smell to hyper level. I can taste the smell of minute amounts of fragrant/aromatic chemicals. It starts of as being a nuisance. Then the splitting headache comes on. Then I'm depleted to an onset of tiredness.

Do you have acid reflux before this problem has started.

Yes, i do. Hade you found anything helpful for that?

Any cure ?

We have a free tool to help you avoid them ;)

Me too, flowers and perfume scents trigger my allergies. I find that green tea scented perfumes are okay and don't cause me any reactions. I hate flowers because of this but have pot plants in the house which don't cause any reaction. I hate going to nature reserves or hiking because of my pollen allergies.

Doctors are the most dumb people society has.

Andrea Villamor how do you deal with this

Vanilla does this to me too. I become nauseous and sometimes it makes me vomit.

Μe too

That’s horrible. What are your symptoms?

YT Famous me too hope you are doing alright. One day at a time.

I’ve been noticing that the clothes I wear outside seem to get contaminated with a sweet smelling chemical odor similar to fabric softener or dryer sheets (which I don’t use). The smell is noticeable in the air mostly in the afternoon outside. It all started around the beginning of 2021 and seems to saturate clothing with it’s pungent odor.

I thought I was alone in this and I don't talk about it, I just say " my clothes smell so bad when I go outside" and no one else seems to smell what I smell. I also smell it on my skin

I wish I had an answer... I have been searching for over 10 years

Do you get sick with food smells too?? Like onions?

Yes. I think lots of the bad smells from bacon come when the product is made using "liquid smoke". That stuff is lethal IMHO. 😂 The smell of popcorn gets me too. ❤

The only way to avoid is ether by avoiding the situation or using a mask with chemical/coal filter. Like a respro mask or bigger and more expensive once. I myself drive or use mask. Or walk alone.

And also avoiding over along time can make it better like changing work and moving if needed.

Yes. Take them to the Bastille

I have this illness too, I get sick with químical smells and food smells like onions, peppers, etc… do you get triggered by smelling food too? Or do you know somebody that get sick with food??

Same

It can cause ASTHMA ATTACKS. MIGRAINES. SEZURES AND DIZZYNESS.

Here are some of the symptoms I’ve suffered: Allergy/flu/cold symptoms (runny nose, tearing eyes, scratchy/sore throat, coughing, sneezing) Laryngitis Swollen, closed throat Skin flushing, itching and rash Headaches (mild to severe) Social Anxiety (nervous about getting close to people and smelling them) Nausea and Retching (haven’t actually vomited but feel like I could) Seizure type event (VERY PAINFUL) Dizziness, loss of concentration Minor incontinence (triggered by prolonged coughing) Fever, chills and sweating Appetite Disturbance in public (hard to eat when I can smell/taste perfume, hair product, poor toilet hygiene, synthetic air fresheners, tobacco, etc) The symptoms range from mild to severe and can last a few minutes or several hours. I haven’t experienced loss of consciousness but I have been reduced to a semiconscious state. My vision has also been temporarily reduced.

The chemicals cause cancer in the long run.

Nausea is one of the one I suffer the most.

It’s not. Just loads of hysterical women trying to assert their dominance in the workplace and failing.

Actually, people can go into anaphylactic shock and suffer asthma attacks, debilitating migraines, and other serious health issues from exposure to fragrances.

@@TheFitnessKelly Yeah, this is why 99% of youtube comments are less than even anecdotally valuable [note the above starter of this thread claimed to KNOW without ever meeting anyone of the people he disparaged and WITHOUT ever studying ANY of the chemicals used in said "fragrances" , that magickally , no one, ever, could have an "allergic" (probably doesnt even understand that "allergies" are UNCOMMON reactions by the immune system and that literal poisons, like say alcohol, as in alcohol poisioning, only cause that reaction specifically in some people UNCOMMONLY, with low doses because said persons have comprimised or otherewise malfunctioning "filtration" systems....which could literally happen to anyone given the right set of circunstances.....and the reason why he is not an actual scientist of any kind becomes very clear, thus his delusional ramblings can be ignored as the "non-science" that they are 😎🤗😍😘😙😶🤔😉

Actually, I have gone into anaphylactic shock from chemicals used in cologne. So don't tell me that it can't happen. Because of people like you, I can't leave my home without worrying that it will be the last time.

What a weird comment to make. How can you be so sure of what other people are experiencing? Is it not possible that a chemical ingredient can cause adverse effects? How can you say with so much certainty that people can’t go into anaphylactic shock from chemical exposure?It’s sad that your attachment to your cologne is such that you express so much anger at people who are negatively impacted by it. Maybe do some research on confirmation bias and learn how to challenge your assumptions.

You can use your cologne at your home where you won't offend other people. Perfume destroys relationship, you gain invisible and visible enemies to your life. I have seen women or guys running away from relationship because of cologne, perfume, laundry with strong smell, etc. Lately the companies are making some laundry with perfume booster. It's horrendous. Whenever the person moves the body, the freaking smell renews in the air, it's a human spray, airfreshener. IAlso horrible going home smelling your boss, smelling your co-worker. the perfume contaminates the paperwork, the door nob and start contaminate the clothes and go home smelling other people. Horrible. I went to my neighbor home and started playing and holding the puppy dog. The freaking neighbor put perfume on the dog. Poor dog. I went home all contaminated with the perfume on my chest, neck. I had to take off all the clothes and take shower. Now when I go the neighbor, I avoid to play with the dog that beggs to play with him. One day I had to leave the store cashier line because one customer has a smell that was making me crasy, very sick. The smell came from another planet. I was avoiding her while I was in the store, and she kept coming to my direction to browse the things I was looking at, I kept leaving the area and going far away from her, but at the check out I could not avoid her, so I had to leave the items I want to buy and left the store. You just want to run. Freaking poison to your brain.

If you are hurting someone by wearing cologne, it is your responsibility. Hey, here's an idea if you are worried you stink, instead if dousing yourself in cologne, how about using soap and water and taking a shower. Solved it for you, you're welcome.
