Wonder if anyone can make an assessment as to why I have scent auras. If you have read anything, know anecdotal stories, have physiological or scientific understanding into this malady.

I myself have a theory, yet don't want to steer anyones pure response.

I have environmental triggers vs dietary ones FYI.

Thx for any .02$

Love this forum!

I've read that they are indicative of demonic presence. I've had them before as well. Do you believe in Jesus Christ or spiritual things?

Yes, very spiritually sensative, but I am not "religious".
Jesus is my Lord and my Savior and my best Friend.

If you have anymore to offer please share.

Peat has mentioned Luca Turin and his theory of vibratory scent rather than receptors, I think it's possible to taste and smell by thinking of a carrot,it's like thinking of a face you know, in the mind,it's not always verbal.

Interesting. I will Google his research. Thank you.

I do believe it could be a receptor "error".
Regardless of the stimuli that triggers it...the aura is always, always the same. An unpleasant burnt smell....

These are classically related to migraines. So lowering serotonin might fix the issue.

I have been trying that for about six months now, since October.
Would anyone throw out a quick list of serotonin depletors besides carrots? Just one or two words.
Or an especially good RP link?

Edit: just found a great thread. Thx Constantine

Haidut'so diamant is very effective for this (just take low doses) and tianeptine is great as well. Or are you looking for more natural substances?

Was trying to go the "food as supplement" route first...
Ideas?
Tried niacinamide and my blood sugar was affected.
Coffee was harsh on my stomach.
Aspirin was great at first..but ended gaining close to 15 lbs in muscle mass and water or glycogen I suppose.
Progesterone...lots of water gain again.... Big breasts and bottom.
Struggle with constipation.
Mood and sleep good.

You gained 15 lb of muscle mass from aspirin?

Do you have any issues with your jaw or neck, or any ear pain/pressure?

Yes. I was underweight. About 118# and went up 15# on two months of aspirin. All lean mass. But aspirin was also harsh on my gut. Hated the weight. Felt like someone else's body.

Do you have any issues with your jaw or neck, or any ear pain/pressure?
I do not. Just tinnitus a few time a year.

If you believe in spiritual origins, then why not try some "cleansing" work?

My mom had the same thing after a vase fell in her head.

Ativan, lorazapam, and xanax helped her.

She smelled smoke all day.

So an inflammatory response?

Spiritual origins was suggested by another member, not me. Although I am open to all suggestions.

So I wrote Peat.

Attached is a screenshot of the majority of his reply.

What stands out to me is:
-his knowledge about this weird stuff
-his simple consistent message
-that he doesn’t jump to supplementation
-that he is so responsive

I did indeed write back.
If and when I hear from him again, I will also post his reply.
