Poll of the Day > I think I've developed an eating disorder.

(+) Yeah! (+)

My sense of smell was gone for three months post-COVID. When it finally came back, some things started smelling horrendous. Most noticeably: ME. I asked other people (first my parents, then friends) if I smelled bad and they always told me no. But I was smelling straight up sewage coming out of my body. My farts were horrendous (again, only to me) and I felt like I was in a gas chamber whenever I was taking a shit. On top of that, I was getting random stomach aches and cramps.

And then one day I ate less than normal and the next day I had none of that going on. So I tried it again, and it worked. Eating too much was making me smell and feel like shit. Whenever I eat too much, I almost immediately start feeling like shit and my next BM is like mustard gas. So I just try not to eat too much.

But even though I feel full for the most part, I'm only getting about 1000 - 1200 calories a day which I know can't be good. But I don't want to feel or smell like absolute hell.

Pray to jeebus maybe hell fix it

Sounds horrible. Anything else happening with your sense of smell? Is everything else smelling the same as you remember before?

Is this more bullshit like the stuff you admitted was all bullshit in that one topic?

Some things don't taste right anymore. Namely, peppers. I loved peppers, and now they taste kind of ashy. Also peanut butter (one of my faves :() doesn't quite taste right anymore.

Have you tried putting peanut butter on the peppers

Thats kind of odd. Is there any other factor that might be affecting you. I know if I go through a long period of smoking weed then stop some foods will taste a little different.

gamefaqs can fix you. the medical industry is overrated. don't seek help from professionals and highly qualified people

My best guess is that you may have developed some manner of IBD, then separately from that, your sense of smell has come back with a particular sensitivity to your own colonic musk. The former, you can potentially get treated by a doctor, most likely with some dietary changes (other than starving yourself). The latter, unfortunately, you're just going to have to get used to, though the farting and smelly poops will be helped by treating your IBD (or whatever the issue is).

COVID-19 can and does alter people's sense of taste and by extension their sense of smell. Consult a physician.

I know someone who had COVID months ago and it took her a long time to regain a normal sense of taste for water, of all things. Really sucked for her.

not gonna lie i hope this weight stays off after I kick this eating disorder lmfao.

Sounds a stinker.
