Support Groups
If you have never joined a support group for your particular condition, it’s a good way to meet others who understand and can relate to your struggles. Before I joined my first odor support group back in 2008, I had never met anybody with my condition. I thought I was one of maybe 2 or 3 other people on the entire planet with it. I was shocked that so many others were suffering as I was. I met a lot of good people there. Plus, I finally found out what was wrong with my body and what I could do to treat the problem. Whatever your condition, this is a list of support groups you may be interested in.
For those with my particular rare condition, here is a list of odor support groups. Maybe you’ll want to join more than one.
