I just got into university and people have been talking about how I smell and have body odour. I’m really self-conscious so I can’t just get over it. They’ve insulted me behind my back and acted like we were friends. I hate it. I’m also really conscious and insecure about my body.

I’m sorry to hear that you’re going through a tough time dealing with these comments about body odor and your self-consciousness. Make sure you’re showering regularly, using soap, shampoo, and deodorant. Clean clothes are also essential; try to use lime or alum on your armpits too. It helps to reduce body odor.
Reducing or avoiding foods that contribute to body odor, such as garlic and onions, might be helpful. Make sure your clothes are clean and don’t have lingering odors. Use a good detergent and consider adding scent boosters to wash your clothes.
Do not let negative comments or gossip get to you. Focus on personal growth and building your self-esteem. Surround yourself with supportive friends and seek professional help if needed. You deserve to feel confident and comfortable in your own skin.
