some sensory stuff i'm learning i have: i really feel a lot better when i'm clean-shaven, have very short hair, and have recently showered. also remembering i find ties and tight collars unbearable on my neck, and couldn't wear contacts b/c my eyes refused to stay open

it used to be impossible for anyone to touch me anywhere near my stomach or genitals - i used to say i was "extremely ticklish" - but that's gotten a lot better as i've slowly relaxed more tension around there generally over the last 5 years

probably also partly that i didn't know how to have or enforce touch boundaries for a long time 😬 childhood experiences of having to submit to being touched by doctors etc.
I'm pretty good with boundaries, but gosh darn if I ain't waaaayyy more ticklish there than anywhere else
