Losing my mind with bad smells
I’m losing my goddamn mind.
Been living in my van for several months now and there has been this horrible sometimes subtle and sometimes more obvious musty sweet nutty smell in a specific area of the van, but I cannot for the life of me track it down. Every time I try to localize where it’s coming from, the smell just goes away and all I can smell is what I’m actively smelling (cushions, trash bin, bathroom, etc.). I’m losing my mind, it makes me feel so horrible. I feel so hopeless about finding and eliminating it because I CANT FIND IT. WHAT THE FUCK IS IT.
I am hopeful it is not a dead rodent because I have a dog and I think she would be interested in a rodent? I fear it’s mold. I have spent a good amount of time in the PNW and humidity levels have been higher than they should have been, though I always have a window open and roof fan running.
I can’t afford the time or money of a van tear down, but I also can’t keep living like this. I don’t have a home to go back to to do a deep clean or minor tear down, this van is what I have for now.
I just really needed to vent. Maybe someone else is struggling with this or has struggled? It’s making me go crazy.
