Is It Normal?
What do you think?
One of the most weird things keeps happening to me
Well how do i say this ? its kinda hard to explain but ill do my best, i started noticing this about 5 years ago, i dont know if it happened before, i am 17 .
So here's whats going on :
Whenever i enter an old place , something like an old church , castle , manor whatever old with the smell of dust , wood or generally aged , rock built buildings , most of the times nearly abandoned i.. (right now i am thinking a bit on how to explain it as accurate as possible) , whenever i smell the air and the odors , or when its also cold and gloomy like (you know no sunlights and movie like places from horror movies :P ) i get dizzied , the air its like its making me get dizzy in every breath(most of the times i lose most of my senses and the sense of whats going on), once it got dangerous when i got on a trip with my family and we got into an old picturesque like church, i mean i got so dizzy that everything whent black and i nearly fell onto the floor (thankfully that didnt happen because i got back to my senses and put my hands to my head protecting it from the floor) i have never said my parents or anyone about it because i think its really .. unusual in a bad way, and no i dont watch too much tv . i tried to explain as well as i could can any1 plz tell me if its common or if its weird .,ty , also i dont believe in those meta phisical stuff and like that for those of you that say i do :D

You can just be an alergic reaction of some sorts, or you could have had some traumatic experience in a similar place, old church/building, and your brain just relates to that, who knows.



peace JAH bless
He did. It was in a chrch. They threw water over him and called him names when he was an infant. RAFLMFAO.
Didge Daz has a point.

The buildings you describe as "old, stone & wood" are probably harboring various molds and fungus and you may be having an allergic reaction.

Mine started out similarly many years ago. I would get sinus pressure and I would begin to feel "spacey". I was later diagnosed with allergic sinusitis. It always happens in the fall when certain pollens come out as well as many mold spores due to cool, moist conditions.

Mention it to your doc the next time you see him/her.


OR...maybe you had better see A PRIEST! MWAAAHHH! HA! HA! HA! (just kidding)

Don't stress out too much over this.
yeah i do that too,not to your extreme but I still get a weird dizzy feeling going into an old strange place.or sometimes looking thru old dusty books can also make my head swim.nothing supernatural just hard to explain .
I'm sending you a link from the Social Issues Research Center regarding the perception of smell and how odors can be associated with experiences and sensations.

However, you should also take Sprinkles' advice and get checked for any allergies to molds or pollens. Some of those allergies can actually be life threatening.

Hope you're able to get this figured out!
lol...there are like 14908 explantations, but yes its "wierd" but not abnormal. It could be either supernatural, past experiences, past life experiences, u could be a demon (lol jk), dust allergies, certain mold allergies, any type of physical disorder. I'd suggest asking your doctor on your next check-up, and if u believe in this stuff and you know a good one a physcic, but the last only if you want and your doctor has no explanation, hope i helped, peace
