Huge things
Huge things in my life that this helps explain / tie together:
- hypersensitive (recoil from)
- the fact that I can't stand to be touched, hugged, receive massages, etc
- the fact that I can't stand to wear clothes, shoes, or socks — if I don't have a roommate, I'm always mostly naked at home. Even if I do have a roommate, at the very least, my socks and shoes ALWAYS have to come off ASAP.
- hyposensitive (attracted towards)
- my complete obsession with all kinds of vehicles, vehicle racing, stunts on bicycles, etc
- the fact that I'm a masochist, and find pain enjoyable
- the fact that I LOVE spicy food, far spicier than nearly anyone I know
- the fact that I have a very hard time waking up in the morning, without an alarm that's designed for hearing-disabled people
(at the same time, strangely, when I'm awake, I have no such hearing problems)
- the fact that I fidget constantly
- the fact that I was diagnosed as having ADHD — this diagnosis may now be in doubt (or it may be strengthened, because they DO co-occur)
Small things, but very unique things
