    hi i'm Reynan from philippines, and i have the same situation, i diagnosed TMAU last 2012, and i really hate TMAU, that is the reason why i stopped studying, there are so many people judging me about my smell, some of them laughing and bullying me, that is why sometimes i can't stop my self to hurt the people who bullying me, because i'm thinking that i have to hurt them to stop them bullying me,,, but now i realized that violence is not the answer to stop them, all i did is ignoring them and just let them judging, laughing, and bullying me, because i realized that i can still do all what i want to do, and i can still enjoy my life with this life breaker 'TMAU' , and also i realized that i can still achieve my goals by helping my self to get up and still frighting for my future and make my dream come true, and i learned how to accept that this is now a part of my life, and i think GOD gave me this because i think GOD want me to be a stronger person,
    i know that no amount of positive thinking can solve TMAU problem, but by helping ourselves and acceptance is the only way to survive TMAU,
    i'm sorry about my english, i'm not good ni english language,,

    I have noticed (and so has family members) that certain times, I have really bad onion, musty odor that can funk up a whole room extremely. My parents used to joke about it with me when I was four (especially my father) for having armpit odor. When puberty hit, it wasn't really a big deal until life started to get stressful and hectic. That was probably around 14/15. I never did anything about the issue, but now I feel that i should definitely change my diet because my diet is horrible. I thank those of you who have documented and made people aware of this or many would think they are alone.

      Hey friends, we are doing wrong. We are letting our problem control our mental power although it cripples us physically. I have been down with this problem since long. There was time when I used to consider taking my own life because of social exclusion. Along the passage of time, I began to empower myself instead of waiting for people to understand my feelings. I know people do prick and pierce me , be it smelly or any other problem. It is pointless to expect anything from them. We can't let them rule us by getting affected from their unfavorable and humiliating reactions. These days, I keep motivating myself by patterning my food plan and feeling positive towards my environment. Why don't we befriend and form a group so that we fight together to overcome it?

    You have TMAU not because you are dirty, you are just lucky.
    : At home or in your personal & private space let the odour out freely, don’t control or block it. And in social situations use deodorants & antiperspirant (commercial/regular ones, if u r not comfortable with chemicals on products, don’t worry occasional use is fine, also try using natural deodorants like soda, apple cider vinegar, alum bar or powder, lime/lemon juice etc whichever is available at your place. For now Take them as solution/cure to the problem provided by God. At this stage it is not yet 100% curable. Just hang on a little longer.
    Also research more about the cause, what’s going on, what’s wrong, what is it etc....it helps when you have more knowledge about it !

    I know this video is old, but I hope someone sees this. I believe I have this, and it has gotten worse the past few years. About a year ago I tried using baking soda and it totally cut out the smell. The only thing is over time my body got used to it, and now it doesn’t work as well. But it helped me very well for almost a year so it’s worth a shot!!!!! I also spray a fresh scent under my arms like freshwater lavender. I’ve found that some deodorant scents like vanilla make it smell so much worse, and that more fresh scents can hide it more
