I am very well aware of how my body reacts to toxic
substances, when it happens and why. My entire sinus area
swells (ears nose and throat), after inhaling toxic junk,
making it difficult for me to breathe, speak, hear, think,
smile, etc.
NO,NO,NO.....I do NOT want to continue feeling this way
just because others ignorantly believe I am a fake. YES,
YES, YES.....the person deliberately exposing me to this
stuff and carelessly ignoring me when I claim it bothers
me, is bitterly feasting on the idea of making me suffer
and IS harassing me. Therefore, they SHOULD be charged with
criminal intent behavior. No one is going to tell me that
this type of torment is allowed because it's so easy for us
to blame the victim as being delusional, in great need of
medication.

Be aware that there are other people with MCS, those that
don't show devastating signs of it, like getting
convulsions,for example. But they may just value their
wonderful sense of smell and wish NOT to have it altered by
synthetic fragrances and chemicals that harm the olfactory
nerves so they develop anosmia (loss of smell). Avoiding
synthetics/chemicals is a person's preference, and I think
we all need to learn to co-exist, respectfully towards one
another's needs! Just as you wouldn't make loud noise after
midnight disturbing your neighbor, you shouldn't blow smoke
in their window, or other irritating chemicals their way as
well. Take into consideration, disturbance comes from all
forms, not just the ones we were fortunate to have laws
against like "noise ordinance." You are creating a
disturbance, especially if you are aware that a person is
bothered by a substance and you just continue to expose
them all the more....hey, doesn't that sound like
harassment????? And NO, the victim isn't a nutcase!
Why should a person be psychologically conditioned and
medically treated to like something they *normally*
dislike, and to accept things they're wise enough to know
is harmful to their health? What's the aim? To make idiots
out of people, so these chemical companies can continue
rolling in the big bucks? "It would put too many people out
of work" they say. OK....isn't there better, safer,
natural, nontoxic products they can be producing, keeping
those same people happily employed....BUT...standing behind
products that are healthfully pleasant, and gentle on the
environment. We could then co-exist comfortably...all of
us, and not only the strong.

In all cases, thinking MCS'ers need medication, or to be
institutionalized because you lack the mental energy to
look into such matters, therefore lazily believing them to
be fakes.....will never work with me. I will NEVER EVER be
on medication or be institutionalized for being a basic,
down to earth, wise person avoiding the suffering, and who
just wants to simply *enjoy life!*
