MDJunction to me

scotty04901"MDJ to me is an added phase in my recovery as a 44 year survivor of a TBI. I hope that with what I have lived through in those years, will be able to help all those who are just now going through. It is important to understand that even after 44 yrs, I am continuing to recover and to evolve. I just hope I can help others." (scotty04901)

Intersting! Thanks... I will get on there and read about it... usually though the smells I get are different than the smoke thing... usually something smells rotten or if you can smell evil that would be a good way to explain it... I'll get busy reading!

I smoke so I can't smell anything. People think I'm weird cuz I like the way my dogs smell. My vision is getting worse but that's been happening since I sat on my last glasses in 1997. I get the panicing (sp?) when you feel something different! It's hard not to panic over it sometimes. I panic evertime something is wrong with one of my dogs and I call my vet's assistant...she gave me her phone number because she understands that I don't always have control over my senses. Overreacts...they will put that on my headstone

Oh, hellz yeah. It's part of the sensitivity thing. My sense of smell is both acute and distorted, and sometimes my eyes see double or blur. Also my sense of taste is screwed up and so is my sensitivity to touch. YAY. For example, "back then" I loved amber perfume, now I can't smell it and like candy/floral sweet. "Back when" I was "normal," I liked woody ash bitter tastes and now I can't abide them and like sweet.
