A Germaphobe’s Guide To Public Restrooms
Dealing With The Terrible Odors

Sometimes terrible odors are unavoidable in public restrooms. Consider purchasing a pocket-sized air freshener and keeping it in your bag for when you need to use a public restroom. If you happen to find yourself without air freshener or are worried about breathing in chemicals from the air freshener, try breathing into your sleeve or wrap a light scarf loosely around your face to help mask the odors. Of course, it is better to find a restroom to use that does not smell foul but if you cannot wait; try your best to struggle through the odors using the tips above. Try not thinking about the odor molecules that you are breathing into your body.
