If life has you a little stressed out and THEN your kid has a dirty diaper it’s always the WORST SMELLING ONE EVER! Well it’s probably less the strained peas they had for lunch and more your anxiety. According to the Journal of Neuroscience your emotions can have an impact on your sense of smell and anxiety can make you much more sensitive to stuff that wreaks. Even things that smell neutral can still smell bad when you’re worked up about being late or paying bills. Try to remember that before you tear your husband a new one for using his original one to light up the car. 😉
