I'm out of control!

[Aicila]

A while ago I wasn't able to get a med refilled and felt like emotionally I was going to die. I will never ever let that happen again. I have since then levelled out. After things have levelled out I have felt a little like I have been on a roller coaster. I can sometimes catch myself but other times I will have a little bit of an outburst before I realize what happened. I get irritated and only when dealing with smells. Afterwards I realize what has happened and can calm myself but I will get a huge migraine and get tired and that will last all day until I go to bed. It just feels like I can't control myself when I smell certain things. I hate that I can't control my emotions. It doesn't even have to stink, it can be a cologne, or purfume, it can be some sort of food, like cheese or a strong wine or beer. Yesterday it was just how a house smelled.

People don't seem to understand. I don't think I even understand. How can so many smells bother me to the point I get irritated and can't control myself. I mean, If I don't like something that is fine, but it shouldn't be to the point I feel like I want to jump out of my skin and feel the need to scream!

Are you by any change taking B-12? I'm asking this because when I was taking B-12 shot, I would get so anxious over the smalls things. and like you I tried my best to keep a lid on it, but it was as if I could not controll myself. I know how horrible this makes you feel, I've been there.
When my neur. had me stop the B-12 shots my outburst stopped.

I did not have the bad headaches to deal with. I hope you get to feeling better.

I started taking fish oil, 4 to 5 tablets a day 1200mg, but be prepared, you will be going to the bathroom. The fish oil is the only thing that help me.

I wish I could be more helpful...I am new to this tho...My son being the one who is having seizures, he is 3. I can think of a few times in the past 4 months that certain smells have had the same effect that you are describing, on him...Interested to hear what others might have to say. He is not taking B-12.
