Re: Suicidal b/c Body Odor
Wow.. are you serious? You got arrested because of smelling bad? I'm so sorry.. I can't imagine how humiliating that must have been.
I heard that somewhere, there is a law that says you can't smell bad. If you do, you'll get arrested or something. It really frustrates me because that's taking everything too far in my opinion. Yeah, some people actually DON'T take care of themselves, and have poor hygiene which results in why they smell, but the rest of us who do bathe regularly and keep up good personal hygiene shouldn't be seen as people who don't take care of themselves.. Or get arrested! That's just horrible. It's hard to live with this. It really is. It ruins grades, social life, love life, and life in general. Everything about life is ruined if you smell bad. I don't mean to make you feel bad by saying this, though. We're both in the same boat here.
Honestly, it sucks to walk down the street and then someone 20 feet away starts coughing and runs away. It's embarrassing and cruel to go through. There are more humiliating moments that have happened to me, so many it's hard to keep count...
My heart goes out to you. I hope you find a cure and get to take a big step in the right direction in life. If you want to talk, you can always talk to me.
