Smokers are really bothering me at the moment. Not just cigarette smoke, the smell of the people themselves.
I have always been very sensitive to cigarette smoke, with it setting off my asthma if I inhale only a little. If I get doused in smoke, the asthma keeps getting worse until I take a shower and change my clothes. (I don't know if I would eventually reach a plateau and then get better - I've never been able to stand it long enough to find out.)
But for maybe a month now, just being near a smoker has caused chest pains, eye-watering and nausea. I had to position myself carefully away from certain people at Conquest as a result.
Honestly, I have no idea what the deal is here.
