Re: Have A Bad Rectum Smell

Hello Pleazehelp,

This is #36069. The problem that you're battling with is something I am dealing with as well. There is a odor that smells like fart, and even s**t at times that is being released through my rectum that has caused me withdraw from people and feel so unconfident and unmotivated. I have had this problem for 2 years as well. I am very intellegent and aspiring to be an accountant, I have worked for banks, and I did almost 2 years of college before having to drop out because the odor would become so pervasive in the classroom. I had to stand on the sideline during my last two birthday parties. Everything I do and everywhere I go this problem exists. I don't work right now because I am so embarassed. I worked as a teller and customer service representative and my coworkers would make jokes under the table and come and stand behind me or always try to get close to me to see if they smell dooky. It made me feel so bad. I stopped talking to my best friends just ultimately withdrawed from them and not have any dealings with them and I couldn't even give them a reasonable explanation, I didn't want to expose myself. I am not depressed to the point where I am in total despair, just so as long as I'm alone, I am okay because I live in a large city so I walk around, go to the parks alot, or open places where I am not interacting with a lot of people. I don't have my own car anymore so It is tough riding in cars for me because when I get nervous the odor becomes more alarming. Job interviews, standing in long lines, and etc... makes it worse. I have had two good jobs since I've relocated and had to quit them both because to scent was to bad and I just couldn't deal with people talking about me. I have much more to tell you. I am genuinely concerned person who is here to serve as a supporter and to be encouraged by someone who is battling with the same problem. You know I know its hard for us everyday because we're stressed all day until you are home or in your bedroom where no one can bother you that is truly the only time I can feel at ease. But don't give up. I have gone to two different doctors, and no definite diagnosis total speculations and their trial and error medicine casualties. I hope we can become friends. Just keep aspiring to do whatever you are doing. I no longer want to work in a professional business environment anymore because of my foul odor. I really don't know what kind of job I can do without being in close proximity of people or interacting with them a lot. Do you have any suggestions. I don't eat real healthy but I don't eat a lot of sweets or red meats. What kind of foods do you eat and is there anything that works for you. There is so much I have to say but I am very friendly, unjudgmental and always willing to listen. Later, Be Strong

You can also email me at KRODON20@yahoo.com anytime day or night I'm up late so please feel free. By the way I am a 21 year old black guy. I know how it is because I'm very clean take showers everyday, well groomed, dress nice, attractive and very intelligent. But people still treat me like dirt if they smell me. It hurts so much because you can't explain it and you know that you aren't nasty, and you're adamantly sure you just took a shower, however it's inevitablely obvious everyone would contest us if they smelled us and we reply I took a bath. Write back talk to you later. DJ
