Hi,
This is my first post so hello....
My problem which I would greatly appreciate any advice is that I totally believe I have bb.
When I am around ppl they do things such asl rub there nose, sniffing, stepping back. I was at a festival and had a drink of somones water, after giving them the bottle back I saw them cleaning the bottle top with the bottom of the top they were wearing.
Ive spoken to someone and they violently coughed as if the smell had hit the back of their throat.
I have been sat on a train talking to someone opposite me, when a girl next to meet sprayed some perfume in my direction! That was humiliating….And many other senarios to make me believe i have bb.
It got to the extent where I had my tonsils removed because I thought I may have had tonsil stones, I didn't and the problems still persisted.
Well after speaking to my doctor he arranged me to see a psychologist. The psychologist said they couldn't smell anything bad. I told my mum who said she couldn't smell anything bad. I then picked up the courage to ask a close friend, they said they couldn't smell anything bad. At this point I thought either A: They were lying so they wouldn't hurt my feelings or B: They were unable to detect the smell as they were use to it or there nose receptors were not able to pick up that specific smell. Anyhow I then built up the courage to ask another close friend (it gets easier to ask friends the more you do it) who I thought had an excellent sense of smell. Well she told me it didnt smell.
So for 3 months I was happy and believed my breath didn't smell. Anyhows at work yesterday a couple of things happened, maybe it was my paranoid mind but when I walked into the wharehouse I heard a member of staff say "its not his fault" I kinda thought they were talking about my breath, and that it wasnt my fault I had bb.
I want to ask my mum again and friends and say "please just be completely honest with me". (Ive read on other sites friends/family will tell you, you dont have bb, when in reality you do for reasons unknown to me, which is driving me MAD) I cant ask my family or friends at this time due to other factors happing and I think it would make me look selfish to bring it up again at this time.
Can anyone help or give me advice on why people would lie to me and have other people gone through something similar. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
