My sense of smell has decreased this past few years but unsure what have caused it. I have been in a lot of trauma and has not been presently living. I noticed if i am more present, the more i can smell. I feel there’s a connection but unsure of the science behind it. 😅

@BonnieShadow33

Trauma makes it more difficult to notice sensory information. It’s not that your nose isn’t working; it’s that the brain is too busy focusing on other things to be able to notice it. This is why grounding in the present uses deliberately focusing on sensory input to distract the mind from all the intrusive thoughts. It really helps.

Yeah, it really sucks to be that sensitive. For me, thankfully it’s only certain fragrances that are really strong, but for me they can trigger an asthma attack, not so much feeling overstimulated. Either way, though, it really sucks.

@ You are Not an idiot. Cells do travel and can function as signal carriers, but most signals are chemicals that bind to receptors on cells causing a cellular reaction.
A good example of a cellular signal would be B-cells that produce antibodies.
A good example of a chemical signal would be hormones.

@paulevaleryjoseph

Laura, some people are born without a sense of smell due to a rare condition called congenital anosmia. This happens when there is an inherent genetic disorder or the olfactory system, which controls smell, doesn’t develop normally before birth. check out STANA which is an advocacy group and there is a group of congenital anosmia/

Lost the ability to smell in 2017. Such a huge impact on my everyday life. About one month ago, I had an instance where I was able to smell and it’s been on and off since then. It’s overwhelming when it’s “on” BUT I am grateful when it happens nonetheless. Where there’s life, there’s hope. I gave up on ever smelling again and out of no where, it’s been coming back.

It’s also a fantastic way to stay rooted in the present moment. After prolonged trauma, people often tune out and shut down their sense of smell as a way to escape the experience of existing in the spatial 3D world present because it is associated with pain and fear. But recovery necessitates returning to it and getting out of the abstraction of the mind. So making an effort to turn back on the sense of smell can help with this. It also encourages deeper rather than shallow breathing, which is great because shallow breathing signifies danger to the brain and body.

Wow, this is such a fascinating perspective! I never really thought about how deeply connected our sense of smell is to memory and emotions. It’s amazing to think about how something as simple as a scent can transport us to different places and times in our lives. Also, the idea of using smell tests as a diagnostic tool is so interesting. It’s crazy that something so vital often gets overlooked in health assessments. Thanks for sharing your insights; it’s opened my eyes to the importance of something I usually take for granted! 🌸🍞💭

As an adult woman born in England of ethnic minority approaching 30 years of age who has never had a sense of smell but has still not been diagnosed with congenital anosmia. I can tell you as a fact that having no sense of smell has a detrimental impact on a person’s well-being as we live in a world where the majority do have a sense of smell and they’re able to navigate so many different situations, including in terms of health and safety and personal hygiene because of their gift of the sense of smell. My point in sharing this is please be aware that there are some of us in the world who do not have this sense of smell and it is not as widely recognised as blindness and deafness and that you should be incredibly grateful that you are able to go about your life with the gift of a sense of smell because it allows you to enjoy and do and have so much. Thank you and hope you all have a fantastic rest of your week.

And I must admit, I as much as I try to be happy for people who have a sense of smell, it saddens me to know just how much I’m missing out on. This disability alone would be bad enough but I also have prurigo nodularis, Fibromyalgia, dysmenorrhea, No feminine developments despite identifying and born as female, and other visible differences. Whilst I feel for those who do not have a sense of sight and hearing which could be argued are much worse disabilities than having no sense of smell, I feel compelled to share that I do miss out on so much including the sense that the woman in the video alludes to. I have never been able to smell. Food flowers, perfumes, dangerous scents, pleasant scents anything at all and it makes me feel like there is so much wrong with me. But as long as awareness is being raised and perhaps possible treatments are in the works for the future, I can accept this
