A few years ago, there was a time when I was sensitive to everything, including smell. During that time, I avoided perfume of all sorts. I used to have a very sensitive skin as well, so I would get rashes often. After a few years, that symptom lessened and now I was able to wear perfume again. The perfume arrived in mail and I was so excited. I talked about this to a friend and she called me a hypocondriac because I told her I was sensitive to smell several years ago. Now I feel like I am an actual hypocondriac and maybe I shouldn’t have bought the perfume, or maybe I should not have told her anything. And I admit that I used to be really sensitive about my health because I was in a lot of pain and suffering from my physical condition, which was undiagnosed at that time. Now I feel like a fraud…so I’m not even sure what to share with my family or my friends. Today’s conversation with her left me largely confused and ashamed.
