What are you supposed to do, work environment-wise, if you have a strong allergy/migraine trigger?

I was talking to a scent-sensitive friend about this last weekend. When she's desperate, she'll put balled up kleenex in her nostrils. She says febreze is one of her biggest triggers.

A lot of people just don't take it seriously, and that's frustrating.

Thanks Jessica and Sue. That's what I'm looking for.

I've actually lost a bit of hearing, thanks to too much loud rock music, and I have this same problem. Sometimes even my gf doesn't take it very seriously, and it's always very frustrating.

ita, have you tried air purifiers? I've never used one, but I've seen them in catalogues.

My mother has no sense of smell. Despite the almost-constant migraine sensitivity, I don't envy her at all.

Oddly, she seems to be able to taste fine. But gas leak, house on fire, random dogshit or bread baking -- she doesn't know about it before it hits one of the other senses. And she has a hard time getting people (including sometimes me) to remember.

Do they work on small bits of large areas? Another good idea...

Hi Everybody! So exciting to post in Natter again. Been so very long.

Bookmarked that Origins link. Very interesting. I'm one of only two women in my building, and the other is even less perfume-y than me. However, there is constantly paint-y or tar-y or some-other-fume-y stuff going on at our facility and the one next door. "Peace of Mind" could come in very handy.

I need some kind of cheap folding screen for our production offices, to section off somebody's desk and give them some privacy for working.

Depending on your definition of "cheap," here are offerings from Cost Plus and Pier One.

Drat, should have meara'd. All I can remember.

My sister and cigarette smoke - same thing.

Ignorance is one thing. If one doesn't even know a condition exists, it's hard to be sensitive to sufferers. But once one has been cluesticked educated, play nice!

A sad day for H.R. Pufinstuff fans.

Totally. I have a hyper-sensitive nose. People are dismissive.
