    Feeling sick because of certain smells
    Im 16 and was wondering is there any reason certain smells make me feel sick?

    Allergies, pregnancy, something that made you sick in the past.

    Its not allergies as the smell making me feel sick is something that never seemed to bother me before

    Well- poisonous smells, obviously. But also, if you have mentally built up a negative association with a specific smell(E.g. In most cases, it is the last thing you ate) from when you previously got ill, and you are encountered later with that specific smell; it can cause you to become sick as well.

    Allergies can come on you after many years if the allergin is comulative - by that I mean maybe a little bit of the smell over a period caused you to be sensitive.

    Could you be pregnant? I always knew when I was pregnant because the smell of coffee (and I'm a heavy coffee drinker) would suddenly make me nauseous.

    Pregnancy has been mentioned twice now, and yet you haven't said whether you have been sexually active.
