The feeling of clothes rubbing causing anxiety
i have the same issue with tight clothes. I end up wearing over-sized clothes because I feel constrained by them otherwise. As far as gloves go, I have found that gloves with a soft feel are alright, but regular workgloves drive me around the bend. I also can't stand stiff fabric or anything in my pockets when I work.

When everyone is losing their heads except you, maybe you don't understand the situation.
When i find clothing that does not lead to sensory overload by wrong texture, shape or strange feeling on skin I wear it for years.
But sometimes my sensivity changes and clothes that I have tolarated before all of sudden feel "weird".
For a couple days or so.
But another sensivity I have and that is really strong: I cannot watch people touching their clothes, I need to cover my ears and my eyes and I am close to start hitting myself or screaming, but I do not do it as I cover my ears and eyes, sensory wise it is unbearble.
Writing about it is causing distress.
