People don't sit next to me, I lose my friends, I eat alone, I'm probably going to live alone, they say I am beautiful, but once they smell me they try to destroy me with words. They think that I don't keep good hygiene. Life is unbearable. People tease me alot, even adults complain about my presence. i don't blame them. My doctors don't have knowlegde about these things so they think I'm mental. There is no way OUT. For 25 years of my life.

Trimethylamine causes an offensive body odor that resembles rotting eggs and is released in the person's sweat, urine and breath, giving off a strong fishy odor. People affected with TMAU may produce more sex cells like sperm, and will have diarrhea. There also may be additional metabolic problems such as mood swings associated with TMAU.

"People think this disease is a laughing matter, but for the people who have it, it is not. This syndrome can be highly destructive to a person's personal and social life and to their work and career,"

The only way the system would think that they are helping me or getting rid of me is to put me in a mental institution, lock me up, put a sign, a label on me that says something like “Bipolar”, “Boderline Personality”, “Dangerous”, “Crazy.” The fact is that the system, other human beings who have not experienced the same thing, the same emotions can not possibly understand. If they did understand the emotions that are unbearable to the soul, they would be in the same situation as I am. I am sure about this and I still keep an open mind. If people understood me and how I felt, no drug, no psychiatrist, no psychologist could help them get out of the situation. When I lose the memory, I can live my life happily and live in the present. When there is something that reminds me of that memory or it happens again, then I will easily go from what society and the English dictionary calls the sane mind to the insane mind. Others, who have experienced this, can no longer understand me, because time makes you forget. They think they understand and have held on to that experience but it is impossible.

It’s too much to take when people don’t want to sit next to you, be seen around you, have you in their memory because it disgusts them. You experience total loneliness. You want to die, but you can’t because there are people who love you and don’t understand. If they ever did understand my situation they would want to kill themselves in an instant. I don’t know how I’ve made it this far.

A genetic defect prohibits the body from producing enzyme FMO3 which is needed by the liver to process the protein TMA. Unprocessed TMA causes offensive body odor known as the fish-odor syndrome.

Up tp the age of 30 or beyond, poetry of many kinds.. gave me great pleasure, and even as a schoolboy I took great delight in SHakespeare
Formerly pictures gave me considerable, and music very great delight. But now for many years I cannot endure to read a line of poetry. I have tried to read Shakespeare, and found it to be so intolerably dull that it nauseated me. I have also lost any taste for pictures or for music... I retain some taste for fine scenery, but it does not cause me exquisite delight which it formerly did... My mind seems to have become a machine for grinding general laws out of large collections of facts. but why this should have cause that atrophy of that part of the brain alone, on which the higher tastes depend I cannot concieve... the loss of these tastes, is a loss of happiness, and may possibly be injurious to the intellect, and more probably to the moral character, by enfeebleing the emotional part of our nature..

Should the more affluent help the less affluent? Do you believe in what Peter Singer does..that we should spend that $500 on charitable causes instead of a new Apple Iphone? Or would a better solution...be something like microlending? What is your position on the moral responsibility of each of us to end world poverty?
