AS and Touching

Post Reply New Topic

I don't let anyone touch my unless it's my mom giving me a hug.

I don't like shaking hands or even giving a fist bump to people.

I have never been able to tolerate touch much or even at all, even with years of my mum forcing hugs on me (and not even the really tight hugs that I found even slightly helpful when panicking).

If people touch me, I react badly (I can't help it), even violently at times. I often tell people when I meet them that I don't like to be touched so can they please not touch me.
