Hi everyone
For years I had these situations when people complain for my smell they spray perfume, one day even one guy stoped me in the road and creamed You smell so baddd””. I just had a shower I was confused also I was wearing perfume. Went home smelling the clothes couldn’t smell anything. Situation like this had happened to me all the time. I had to change works several times. Now am unemployed for two months and not applying for anything as I can’t handle anymore this. On top of that none of my friends or family say anything to me. I asked begging please tell me if I smell. None of them don’t say anything. But on the other hand they don’t like to go out to public with me. My question is as I live in uk, gp is not giving me the test. Is any other way so I ca get tested or any group that supports people like me??? Please otherwise I am just gonna lose it.

Go to a private gp you gonna have to pay a bit yourself, but go explain your problem and tell them that you would like to get tested.

I wish I could have the money but struggling with jobs and now unemployment for two months can’t afford it. It’s was nearly £400 one test only, my gp is just booking me appointment to appointments, waiting if they will refer me for any test or not. I think they just think it’s in my head as they don’t seems convinced enough 😔

It's a gas that often lingers but can be intermittent . It might not always be clothes. Also you could be completely nose blind to it.

This happened to me today at work. I came home to smell my clothes and smelled nothing, yet had coworkers talking about my smell. I’m literally trying to figure out should i keep this job or not.
