Assuming that there is something wrong with my imumesystem. I know that my imumesystem is already healthy and whole. This has been tested and it is increadable how strong an imumesystem I have. I simply have very sensitive senses. I darn well smell the the difference between flowers and toxic chemicals that try to mimic flowers. As I darn well taste the difference between strawberries, and chemicals that try to taste like strawberries. The latter taste awful to me. Good thing too. Why would I want to eat chemical toxins? As my sophisticated warning system, simply tells me early on that there are chemicals in the air i breath, in the water I drink, the food I eat or the fabrics I touch and I am overwhelmed by a sense of disgust. When I ignore that first warning signal and don't put a distance between me and the toxins, I get sick. Many people do, BTW. It often amazes me of especially working class ppl, how easily they accept that they get ill from the work they do and/or the enviroment they live in. Everybody gets ill there and dies under 60 and it's considered an inescapable fact of life. Well.... to me that is unaceptable. So I make other choises, right away. I think I could bare the acute symptoms of intoxication quite well.... if I were less aware of the long term results of the exposure. It is just that I take these first warning signals VERY seriously and make sure I get the hell out, while I still can. So.... is there something wrong with me? I don't think so. If everybody had a fine tuned perception like me, I think this would be a healthier, cleaner and more quiet. Healthier for people, other creatures, plants, etc. and we would spend more quality time with people we love and in nature, and sharing what realy matters in life, and less time rushing around and persuing things that we do not realy value, just for the money, or for sheer entertainment.. The chemical industry would maybe be a minor bussiness, we would need a lot less medication, be a lot less sick, have a lot less stress and enjoy the present moment a whole lot more. You know, I am just through trying to change myself to learn to cope with unnatural circomstances. I went through school as a kid with burning eyes from te tube light, never understanding why that light was on all day anyway, in broad daylight, with the sun shining outside. I could not work in school, or concentrate on anything, could not read the blackboard or my own paper, cuz I was blinded all day. Does that make me abnormal? Just because daylight happens to be enough for me to be able to see what i'm doing? I think we have tubelight now for 40 years or so? How did ppl read and write before that? For ages even a candle at night was enough. There are a lot of advantages to technonlogy. But I just do not see the nessesity of turning up the volume of everything all the time, just cuz we can. Same now with the painters and construction workers right now and here. Normally this is a quiet place to live. But at the moment there are repairs of windows going on in the whole neighborhood. And I am woken up early by that every morning, which is absolutely unhealthy to me. And they will take at least another month to get finished here, and I cannot leave all the time. What they are doing does not even make THAT much noise, but they seem to be convinced that they need a radio on loud all the time to be able to work. THAT I really do not understand. For the most time that radio is just yelling f"cked up commercials, that only make me nervous and to me it is impossible to understand how that could help ppl working. I've been working in places where collegues insisted on radio. It drives me up the wall! Also most ppl do insist on tubelight during work. And it is realy beyond me! So.... is there something wrong with me for needing LESS noise, LESS artificial light and LESS chemical smells to have a sense of well being and to be able to function? I don't think so. THAT is what I was saying. And I was kind of sharing how things were going and what is on my mind. I was NOT trying to find solutions to problems. On the contrary, I was sharing how I am through being diagnosed with problems, where I might function more naturally than most people. Sensitivity is not a problem. Sensitive people are usually more empathic, more compassionate, more creative and artistic, and more gifted and intelligent than avarage people. So.... is there something wrong with us? I don't think so. and yes, there are ways to help us cope in a crazy, noisy and polluted world like we have now. I also use much of those ways. Like earplugs, relaxation and visualisations etc. But all these coping strategies only help partly and do not change how we essentially are. I think it is high time to stop seeing this as a problem.
