What perfectly normal thing can't you be around anymore due to something you experienced? - eviltoast

Mine is a pretty tame example: I never minded the smell of garlic was fine around it… but I took a job for DHL and they had these large tubs of garlic for horses that had to go out to people. There were about 10 of them coming down the belt.

Now I can’t stand it. I’m just reminded of how strong that smell was I was actually gagging. The tubs were heavy, the handles were feedble. Some of the tubs were damaged so I got a bit on me.

I stunk of it for the rest of the shift. It wasn’t even a normal garlic smell it was just so powerful and nauseating.

    I’m sorry to hear that, that’s strong of you to share that. Christmas is already hard enough for a lot of people who lose their family. I can’t begin to imagine your situation, I wish you the best
