OMG I remembered, THANK YOU GOD! YES!
So this blonde chick I posted above said she started hallucinating smells... olfactory hallucinations.
My point was essentially to ask if anyone has ever dreamed of smells?
I have dreamed about flavors... but I do not recall if I've ever dreamed about smells.
Seems like such senses in dreams are related to what's actually going on in your environment... like if your breath is rank and you dream about a bad taste. Or maybe if something's cooking and you dream about the smell because of it.
OMG, that seems vaguely familiar... maybe I've dreamed about a smell based on something that was cooking while I was asleep. I can't remember specifically but it seems familiar.
The point is, dreaming about a smell when no smell was actually present... is that a thing?? Has that ever happened to anyone??
As you all know, my theory about schizophrenia (principally) is that it's due to a malfunction of a gland that secretes chemicals in waking life that should only be excreted during sleep state, if the body was working properly/had no malfunction.
So if anyone remembers dreaming about smells, when there were no smells in the environment to account for such a dream... please post here.
