Yeah I thought I was just being a crybaby and then when i got diagnosed it was like ohhhh #### @cuddly — 2026-01-13T01:27:56.484Z Ewwwwwwwwwww yes! ### @Sweating — 2025-06-16T17:41:04.633Z I don’t know. I see that that sensory processing is a sign of ADHD. As an older female, my skin now is thin, dry, and more sensitive to itchy items: clothing tags. Many synthetic fabrics and hard plastic-type threads are used to sew seams & clothing tags. And my cheaper clothing uses cheaper materials rather than cotton. Cheaper fabrics also seem to melt a bit & form little prickly fibers and bonds that poke the skin and itch. *2 likes* ### @nut.driz7le — 2025-05-04T17:36:45.169Z touching wet shower walls/wet hair, rubbing/scratching denim with hands, sensitive smell *2 likes* ### @Mr Impossible — 2024-12-30T03:02:38.341Z Sunlight makes me sneeze at times. *1 like* #### @bellabear1258 — 2026-02-28T02:09:48.742Z this is actually due to your optic nerve being close to your sneezing nerves and it’s actually quite interesting and it’s a quite rare occurrence but i think it’s more common in neurodivergent people because i’ve met more neurodivergent people who have it than neurotypical people ### @iforgotmyname — 2024-11-03T18:56:28.373Z Screechy loud voices. ### @hopeiwontforget — 2024-10-14T16:00:59.987Z I absolutely cannot stand the feeling of wet clothes. I live in a rainy city, so this is kinda a problem. I sometimes don’t leave the house when it rains a lot and even cancel meetings with friends or stuff because I know, getting there the only thing i think about is my wet jeans, hair, the wet jacket I need to put on later…… at home, when my clothes get wet accidentally, i change immediately 😂 *1 like* ### @KatyMc — 2024-08-30T00:45:41.855Z Just loud noise in general.. kids and animals.. ### @rainbowtoady — 2024-08-29T07:35:24.808Z Ice scraping, trolleys clattering, some music but most of all - the big light 🫠 ### @Callionymus — 2024-08-29T07:10:02.725Z Noises and some music specifically… reggae. I don’t know why but I can react very violently… 🫣 ### @martin777 — 2024-08-27T18:33:14.622Z The sound of skin stroking over fabric drives me up walls 🙈 *1 like* ### @mandyyy — 2024-08-26T08:46:50.538Z A toothbrush that is somehow a little bit dry against the teeth. It makes me want to crawl out of my own skin. 🥶 a daily struggle… ### @Sadie🌷 — 2024-08-25T15:03:30.342Z I cannot physically do dishes like just the feeling of like oh my God no I just can’t sorry so my parents have been very helpful with that because I got diagnosed with ADHD when I was about nine or 10 and I’m 12 now so they let me unload the dishwasher for my chore instead of loading it so I don’t have to touch the dishes which is very helpful. I also have other issues that the main one.

Hate both “warm” and “cold” lightbulbs. I have to search explicitly for those with natural light (those look just like daylight) • I can’t cope with too many people speaking at once. If music is added to it then I’m screwed… • I hate getting my fingers or hands icky… doing the dishes is a real struggle for me 🫠 • Dry microfibre cloths 🤢 they stick to my fingers in the most nerve wrecking way. • Textures of food. Especially dry textures that aren’t crunchy - such as canned tuna, boiled potatoes, dry rise, dry bread, overcooked peas, beans, overcooked fish or meats…. However any of these can be edible with a generous amount of sauce. • Intense smells. Overdosed perfumes. Mold. Cigarette smoke. Strong smell of sweat. Unventilated spaces as warm closed cars, old wood cabins, sometimes bedrooms. *2 likes* ### @Murshid_R — 2024-08-23T17:22:13.428Z I don't know exactly, but I always felt uncomfortable with fluorescent light *1 like* ### @Unknown — 2024-08-23T16:57:58.491Z I hate hearing heavy breathing and snot... 😅 *1 like* ### @Altpeachjelly — 2024-08-23T14:48:43.196Z Fluorescent lights is #1. I only use lamps in my apartment with warm lighting or I start getting agitated. Also food textures like peas and blueberries. I’ve gotten sick from both. *1 like*
