Craving smells
I am really craving certain smells. Solvent type smells (if that makes sense) like furniture polish, paint, turps that kind of thing. Im dying to polish my entire house and sniff the turps under the sink!!!! What does this mean? So far I have resisted sniffing the turps but I really am finding it hard. I assume it can probably be quite damaging to smell solvents but i really want to. What can I do?

Sorry this has made me giggle!! )
I have no idea what it means-but I'm sure there is a meaning-however my mum had a friend who used to keep a hanky in her bag soaked in Jayes fluid which she woud sniff. Also she would travel round the city centre at lunch time visiting the sites where tarmacing was being done so she could have a sniff!!
Hope you manage to get a new craving soon!!

You can come round to mine and polish it from top to bottom, if you'd like!

I am also obsessed with dettol green apple, i scrub my sink in the kitchen about 10 times a day, i'm addicted! It's nicer mixed with lemon washing up liquid, it makes lots of lovely smelling foam.
A less harsher alternative i've found is fabric conditioner. How weird that we all craving bad stuff?
I'm also addicted to Gaviscon double action heartburn tablets, it's says they are safe to use in pg as the liquid makes me sick, bt recently i've been eating them like sweets. I'm naughty aren't i?
It's strange as my only real craving last time was cake and cornflakes. (not together)
