It's kind of like losing a limb. It sucks. Trust me, I know from experience, I have lost my right arm to whaling and my sense of smell due to sniffing my cousins armpit too much. Life without a sense is really tough and you never want to experience it. I now have a smelling aid surgically inserted into my nose, it hurts a lot, but it's worth the miracle of smell.

Do people really lose their sense of smell when they are asleep?

No. That doesn't make any sense, does it? While we sleep a lot of our sensory information goes to our dreams, it takes a strong jolt to wake us up, whether it be a smell, bright flash, loud sound, etc. If that were the case, then smelling salts wouldn't wake people up, either.

When using cocaine do you lose your sense of judgment?

Yes and no. When I was younger I tried cocaine and didn't feel like I lost any sense in judgment, just felt a sense of euphoria. However, it is addictive, so in a sense, you can lose your sense in judgment because you can throw your life away on it. Losing your sense in judgment that way should be enough to keep you away from cocaine.
