Living and coping with odor conditions

MENTAL HEALTH FOR SUFFERERS

When nothing more can be done at this time to manage odor, then focus needs to go towards managing emotions, behavior, and mental health. A great deal of sufferers have seen mental health therapists at one time or another to learn how to cope. The problem seems to arise when the therapists insists that you don't have an odor problem because he or she cannot smell you, while others can. See post, 'Do they smell me or not?' http://www.meboblog.com/2011/01/do-they-smell-me-or-not.html

Instead of trying to convince the sufferers that he or she does not have an odor condition, therapy should focus on how to cope socially when we believe people are responding to the odor. We know there is intermittent odor flare ups, and those are the ones we need to learn to manage emotionally and socially.
