Rank your sense sensitivity

Post Reply New Topic

Hello there!
It will surely take a while before I can get used to the "new" site design of WP...

1. Sound (above average - I don't understand how people can listen to music loudly or easily deal with loud cars or sirens and it's easy to scare me with sudden noises too)

2. Smell (above average - public transportation in summer and I feel the desire to wash my hair twice to get that stinky smell off me)
3. Vision (slightly above average - get blinded by daylight/sunlight easier than other people in my family)
4. Taste (very slightly above average I would say - too much sugar in food nowadays... and squishy food isn't nice)
5. Pain (seems to be on average... I guess?)
6. Touch (I do not exactly like it, tend to notice it quickly and sometimes feel like a cat keeping an equal distance to someone's finger, especially with strangers, but that's all)

That would be my list. It wasn't all that easy to make it, but I think this should be fairly accurate now after spending some time thinking about it.
The difference between 3 and 4 is probably the most notable difference in all though.

1. Vision (Severely sensitive)
2. Sound (Severely sensitive)
3. Touch (Highly sensitive)
4. Smell (More or less average)
5. Taste (same as above)
6. Pain (Suppose it's normal I don't really know)

1.) Taste (hypersensitive)
2.) Sound (very sensitive)
3.) Sight (sensitive to bright lights)
4.) Touch (moderate)
5.) Pain (dulled, I had a root canal done without Novocaine shots before.)
6.) Smell (very dulled)

I have lost some of my sense of smell over the years do to exposure to certain chemicals in the lab. You would think that is a curse, but actually it can be a blessing when dealing with very nauseous compounds.
