Depression
Experiencing any of these reactions is enough to make anyone depressed. But what about the social isolation? Consider those who have to move multiple times in a movie theatre only to have to finally leave because someone’s perfume is making them sick. Same in a restaurant or church. Many people have to change their daily activities to avoid multiple triggers, both at work and at home, that may mildly to severely affect them. There are people who actually have to wear a face mask when they leave their homes. Give that a try. Sounds depressing doesn’t it?

I think it is important to note that depression can be part of the physiological reaction to exposure to chemicals… it’s not just the social isolation and the incredible frustration of having this disease… those are huge factors, but there is also a physiological component. Sudden mood changes like depression and anxiety are part of the body’s natural response to substances that aren’t good for it.
