I've actually lost a bit of hearing, thanks to too much loud rock music, and I have this same problem.
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 lot of people just don't take it seriously, and that's frustrating.
Totally. I have a hyper-sensitive nose. People are dismissive.
FWIW, I've been able to deal with the occasional incense burning in my yoga classes by liberal doses of PH-neutral saline nasal spray. It helps move the odor-bearing molecules right along.
Yet another fancy alarm clock.
This one makes you put together a puzzle in order to shut it off. But I bet chucking it against the wall would work too.
I grew up in a family where 3 out of 5 are very sensative to scents. It is hard to remember even when you grow up with it.
In one of my last jobs the co president/founder was anti popcorn. he said it reminded him of lazy government workers. Scince over half the staff were ex government works , working on products that would help members of thier former proffessions - it was terribly tacky. and no one told you until after you made popcorn.
Unfortunately, the woman in my office who is perfume-sensitive is also a total pain in the ass about nearly everything else, so it always makes me suspicious that she's just being a pain in the ass about the perfume, too.
I actually really dislike this woman, which makes me feel bad. It's come on gradually. She's not a raging bitch - which I would actually have less of a problem with. She's whiny and passive-agressive and I'd better stop because I don't like hating on people; I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt.

OMG, that would not last a day before I had to kill it.
Alias scheduled!!
It's coming back April 19th at 8 pm Eastern with a two hour special.
(There are spoilers in the article I linked to.)
I hate-on people all the time, flea. Just drop your hate-on in my inbox and I'll process for you after lunch.
