My BIG problem

[Jen]

Seriously, thanks you everyone for the warm messages and the suggestions. I really appretiate it. I am looking in a therapist right now but money is kinda holding me back.

But I have gone out of my way to try to start making changes in my life. I even made it a point to walk by a person smoking everyday. I figure I gotta face my fears. I havent thrown any clothes away. But it's it bugging me like crazy. I hope to god I can someday get over something like this because it is parylyzing when you go out in public. It just gets in the way of EVERYTHING.

Oh , and another thing. Out of the all other forums I posted this same message on, you guys were the only ones who didnt have negative comment to say to me. And that makes me proud to be a member here. So thanks so much.

It's nice to know that this forum was sincere and helpful.

It sounds like you are taking some positive steps and facing your fear/anxiety. That's always the biggest step. I hope it all works out for you.

Well here is something people might think i am ____ed for but, i used to date a girl that smoked a lot and even in her place.I think i just stayed with her because she was fun to have sex with so, anyway..every time i would leave her place and just before i got home, i would clean my car seat and the passenger(where she was) because i would reak of smoke pretty bad, even wash my hair twice in the shower and scrub myself down with extra body wash.

Years ago when I was broke and having problems with depression, I saw a "therapist" that was actually a psychology student. I think seeing clients at a reduced rate was part of her schooling. It only cost me $20 a visit. You could try and find something like that.

Might not be the ideal, but it would help I'm sure.

Haha!, oh i did and two shots of Listerine.

I tend to wash my hands excessively as well.

You know samhain, you could always start smoking. You'd never even notice the smell. Might even start to like it...

I think you should smoke some weed...you may just view your old self as being silly...seriously.

My mum smokes a lot and my brother is even worse. And then I had to go and get a g/f who smokes, talk about a glutton for punishment. The funny part of it is I worry more about the state of my collectibles from it all than I do my own health. The smell disgusts me, it gets everywhere on your skin and clothes and its not my f___ing bad habit. But its certainly not a phobia of mine.

My phobias would include talking on phones to strangers and doing anything different in my life, changing my routine. The latter is going to be a major problem for me very soon I expect.

For your collectibles, just rub some of this on them...

Funny, she was doing the same thing after you left.

I also dislike encountering smokers, I usually try to avoid them on the street so I don't breathe that stuff in.

You ____ed Valfar?

But really though, man don't worry about smoke. You do laundry and once that is done the smoke smell/chemicals should be gone, not to mention all the pollutants that are on your clothes just from the air we breathe on a daily basis, that stuff is on your skin too so, don't worry about it. Shower before bed and its all good.
