    I smell tv. Like if there's an onion on tv I start to smell onion, or if there's blood on tv I start to smell blood. This happens with realistic drawings too sometimes. I need :help:

    I can imagine that cooking shows must be olfactory wonders for you.

    Well it's not really strong so it's more like "oh! someone's cooking chicken next door!"
    It's really strong with blood though. It's really gross

    Synesthesia! To put it simply, it's the mixing of the senses. There are a lot of different kinds; certain music genres may make you taste something, or numbers might have colors, or you may feel something when you see another person get touched, to name a few examples.
    Sounds like sight-to-smell synesthesia to me!

    Its not uncommon...
    its a mix of being in synchronicity with what is shown, and of memory...

    some people tend to really pick up emotions from shown pictures...

    be happy to have such lively senses :slight_smile:
    You can use that... remembering a beautiful meadow with its smells, if you want to, for example...
    and maybe taste the best potato salad you ate again and again :slight_smile:

    I agree. The mind is powerful. I don't think you have a condition. You just associate the food with a smell and imagine the smell.

    Your argument is invalid raptor person!

    She already stated that she can't smell stuff that she has smelled before. Imagining for a second that you are indeed correct and she has, then there is no real benefit in actually watching the show, since she already knows the smell and can just tell you.

    To answer your question, since you seem so interested.

    Meth in it's raw form smells a bit like chlorine, like that smell you get when near a public pool. Also a mixture of smells resembling that of detergents and paint. It's a very sharp smell that gets you lightheaded quite fast. Depends on how it was made.

    When smoked, meth has no noticeable smell. This however depends on the purity of the product. The more pure the product is, the higher the chance of it not having any residual smell. If it's something really low grade then it smells like burnt rubber/plastic

    Here are some of the "wonderful" aftereffect of doing meth:

    Permanent damage to blood vessels
    high blood pressure leading to heart attacks, strokes and death
    Liver, kidney and lung damage
    Destruction of tissues
    Respiratory problems
    Severe tooth decay
    Disorientation, apathy, confused exhaustion
    Strong psychological dependence
    Psychosis
    Depression
    Damage to the brain, stroke and epilepsy





    Back on topic. Yes it's weird, but then again I think this because I can't do it and I find it more unique and peculiar, than straight out weird. Can you do this in real life, with stuff in the distance?
