Terpines making me nauseous

anyone else feel nausea when trimming? I have been trimming my outdoor crop a couple hours everyday lately. I’m down to my Durban Poison and it’s very lemony scent makes me feel puky. My wife came into the room and said it was over powering. I’m in a 10 x 10 room with dehumidifier. I started to wear a respirator and it helps a ton. Enyone else?

Lemon terpenes are the reason I can't smoke Super Lemon Haze. I remember when it was the strain that was winning all kinds of awards....I had to try it....Got ahold of an award-winning cut of hit...It didn't smell like fresh lemons (which I love the smell of)...It smelled like lemon Pledge furniture polish. It gave me a nasty headache and just all-around rotten feeling. And I noticed this on other really lemony strains, too. I avoid them now, obviously. But heck yeah, trimming for hours and smelling those terps can be the same effect as smelling paint all day...headache central!

And this is also a reason I avoid those "reintroduced" terpenes or "terpene-enhanced" products.
