Am i being paranoid?

I sympathize with you and everyone experiencing this problem.

It is not psychological or imaginary.

Doctors are usually dismissive or unhelpful.

Con artists offering snake oil cures must be avoided.

My recommendation to everyone experiencing this is to get a high quality hidden camera to document people's reaction as proof. Make sure you document your doctors own reaction too.

Note: please be wary of people with active mirror effect imagination psychological issues and especially Internet attention whores who make up things for like and views.

Hi, You are not alone. People do react when I get close to them. I asked some of my friends to be brutally honest to me but they said no, but I think they don’t want to hurt my feelings instead of helping me to find a cure. I am hypothyroidism and been taking medication for life. I asked my doctor and he said he doesn’t smell anything. Of course!, he doesn’t smell me because he have a mask.  At first, I was depressed because I lost some of my friends. On the bright side, it’s a good excuse not to get close to the people that you don’t want to hangout. Second, I don’t smell myself which is a good thing. Our immune system get use to our own smell. Even when I wear perfume, I still don’t smell myself but If other people wear perfume, I smell it from the distance. So I guess the only person can tell you the truth is to meet someone that has the same issues. Try to smell each other and tell the truth.

To disappear in the earth just because you think you have a bad smell? Do not stress out yourself. Try to advocate yourself.  I considered animals as my best friends who can tolerate my smell. And to other people who have a problem about it, well sorry! not even the doctor can solve my problem. So, be strong and good luck.

Similar feeling.. get anxious because of this. Don't feel comfortable getting tight to other people

I feel the exact same way if you got a solution let me know
