Anosmia sufferers have been shown to be susceptible to dangerous situations such as gas leaks, fires, hazardous chemical vapors, and ingesting spoiled food. Additionally, people with smell loss can also experience difficulty with eating due to the close relationship between smell and taste. Studies also indicate that some individuals develop #depression in response to #feelings of social isolation, fears regarding #safety and personal odor management, and a diminished connection to #pleasure, #emotion, and #memory.
Anosmia Awareness Day was first launched by Daniel Schein, an American man with #olfactory #dysfunction, on February 27, 2012.
Fifth Sense, a UK-based charity that provides support and information to people with smell and taste disorders, has connected Anosmia Awareness Day to its international online awareness and fundraising campaign called #LongLostSmell.
