    Smelly smelly

    I've been more or less AF for a while now and have noticed that I smell things much more than I used to. All kinds of things, including alcohol, of course, but also odours from everything from cooking to people's breath. Has anyone else experienced this?
    (and does it scare you to think what others have smelled on you?)
    Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life... And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

      I've heard an American expression about "too much information"-- could that apply here?

          That would definately be TMI, Beatle FUNNY

          Yes maybe we are just aware of the smells now because we're just more aware in general.

            but doesn't that scare you to think what others smelled on you before?

              Absolutely. I think back when I would go into work hung over and wonder now if people could smell the alcohol from my skin. Because I know when someone else has had a long night. Especially after listening to the audio CD of "Dry" and he talks about that.

                Hey Beatle, Purp,

                How long AF did it take before you noticed this effect - I have had a very poor sense of smell for as long as I can remenber - but then again - I have been drinking to excess for as long as I can remember

                  for me it only took about a week AF. Especially for alcohol-- I can smell someone from across the room who has had one beer earlier...really makes me wonder what others have smelled on me. (chagrined)

                    Thanks Beatle,

                    I am moderating - and so usually go for a maximum of 1 week without at least some alcohol.

                    Perhaps I need to try being AF for longer - It would be nice to wake up and smell the coffee - in so many ways!

                      yeh, smell is interesting. now that i am mostly af with some occasional slip-ups, when i do slip up, i smell it on myself, too. weird. it never smelled to me before. also dirty socks are killing me. but coffee, ah coffee. the more the smell the better.
