I also loved moth crystals smell as a child and got this uncontrollable urge as an adult to seek them out again. Now I can't put them down. I keep them by my bed. I love the smell and the slight nose burn. Omg what's wrong with me? They r a comfort after stressful days. I can't find the toilet deodorizer anymore ...  sad..... need help. Can't stop!!!  Smells sooooo goooood!!!!!

I'm glad I found this forum. I have been searching for answers.  I love the smell of moth crystals gas and lemon pledge and the toilet bowl deoderizers that are crystal like and on bendable metal wire. The crystals take priority.  I was sniffing occasionally now I sniff 1/2 hrs at a time often. I can't Stop. I'm anemic n dialysis.

I am also a mothball addict. I chew up mothballs on a daily basis. I figured as long as I don't swallow them I would be fine. I have been doing this for 11yrs. I also have anemia and that is why we do it. I found out its actually called Pica. Its from being extremely anemic. I have gotten much better with controlling my cravings though.

Rozay,

What you are doing is very dangerous, and I don't know that anyone here can relate or help you. You need to speak with professionals regarding this and I would start with your doctor. You are going to have to get honest with someone and that would be a great place to start. I hope it all works out for you and I wish you the best.

I have been sniffing toilet bowl cleaner for a few years now.. I keep it in a small galdware bowl and eat ice while I sniff it. Im not sure, but i dont feel a high, Im just so obsessed with the smell. I t give me the urge to eat it so insted i eat ice while i sniff it. On an avereage i eat about 15-20 cups of ice a day and i HAVE sniff the toilet bowl cleaner. I know i probably should stop but idk how

I am STUNNED.  I really thought I'd heard of most things!!!!  Here is how SICK I am!  Now, I'm wondering how I missed it!  

Well, stay strong. It's true. An addiction is an addiction.  I read just now, in several posts, this can kill you.  Dead is dead. Doesn't matter "what" made you so.

Stay strong!!!  Please don't give up!  Thanks for bringing your problem here. This is a wonderful site and the people truly care. I've had actual PROOF of that, for sure!!!

God bless!
