Deep Pressure for Fingers and Toes
does anyone else feel an intense need for deep pressure in the tips of their fingers and toes? i’ve felt it ever since I was small, it’s a kind of numbness or tingling around my nails and the only thing that makes it better is to really dig into something soft like a stress ball with my fingers or scrunch my toes in my shoes. it definitely gets worse with anxiety or tension, and it’s probably why I used to bite my nails so much as well now that I think about it. It’s always been something I had but never really thought about, but today I noticed I was hunched up at my work and digging my fingers into my arms without realizing it Im guessing it’s a kind of proprioceptive seeking sensory issue but I couldn’t find anything online about it, was wondering if anyone else could relate.
