Fear of giving off Bad Breath

[james_2012]

Hi,

I have this strange fear that I give off bad breath..Even though I brush my teeth twice a day and go to the dentist, I have this nagging fear that I might still have bad breath. I am 27 now. It seems silly but I was told this when I was 11 or 12 by one of my parents and it is stuck in my head.

Also, I imagine situations where I might go out with a girl and being told that I have bad breath if I get too close to her. I could take mouth fresheners and stuff but the thought pattern is hard to get rid of.

Can you suggest some ways of overcoming this?

Thnks
James

Sure.

1. Maintain good oral hygeine. Add flossing to your regimen.
   
2. Carry some good peppermint gum and keep it handy. When you're around others... chew it. Works wonders.
   
3. Kill your irrational fear and stop worrying about what others think.
   

After looking through the questions you've asked here I would recommend Overcoming Guilt, Shame and Fear until Alpha Male 6.0 comes out.

Thanks Shannon for your tips.

What do you think about EFT? Have you tried it? Or do you believe only in subliminals?

Shannon, can you create a subliminal curing bad breath.
