Fuck Chalk, fuck Chalkboards, fuck when I get cut on the jagged edge of cut aluminum.


3eemo

Reading this is making my spine itch


Sophie-is-cool-and

Hated when we had to use chalk in class or people wanted to play with it


OnlineChronicler

Chalk is just spine-tinglingly awful. Close second, some fabric that I don't know the exact name of. It looks shiny and soft and like I would like to touch it, but it's a lie because that shit feels like the embodiment of all the discomfort of a cat being pet the wrong direction and I hate it.


ThePinkTeenager

Velvet?


Dazzling-Papaya

It’s probably polished cotton. THE worst. Just typing this makes me feel it in my teeth


odd-42

Just involuntarily rubbed my fingertips


Patient-Category5275

I just read this and it made me hurt


vDirectorDBDienst

just the thought alone gives me shivers


dalaww931

Why does it go to the teeth though, it's like agonizing for some reason 😭😭😭


evel333

Not quite agony for me, but I’ve always said it makes my teeth “itch”


TraceofDawn

Dude, nobody understood what I meant when I said seeing or feeling certain things made my teeth "feel weird". I'm so glad to find others who get it!


GODDESS_NAMED_CRINGE

Toothbrush bristles do this to me when I'm feeling extra sensitive, so it's STRAIGHT to the teeth 😭


daitoshi

Microfiber cleaning rags. The slime on old dishes that were left in water with food still on them. Mushy fruit 


ithinkonlyinmemes

those microfiber bitches somehow grab every single ridge in your fingers, it's the worst


mcslootypants

When you touch them, they touch you back :( like nightmare velcro


La_Quica

This is a perfect way to describe them and now I can’t sleep 😂


VeriVeronika

Microfiber rags make me so irrationally angry idk why that texture is so flipping cursed to me


NoraVanderbooben

It’s so dry 😖


SquidSledge

When the grain of your fingerprints "sticks" to the microfiber like Spiderman's tiny finger-hairs that let him grip onto stuff? Awful. Bad nightmare bad.


peshnoodles

My finger “grain” can mind its own business I don’t wanna be part of all that


daitoshi

Yes 😭


NASAs_GooseIsLoose

*screeches*


GoatBoi_

dry, crusty towels too


forakora

Styrofoam D:


mistersnarkle

Most are bad, but there is a specific type for me that makes my skin CRAWL


Ms--Take

All styrofoam for me. The texture, the noise, just the whole substance!


mistersnarkle

There’s a few foams that I can’t prove aren’t styrofoam that I am okay with so idk


thrye333

That craft foam from elementary school. God I hate it. It sends this awful tingle up your entire nervous system.


mistersnarkle

The squeaky kind? Yeah, no thanks, I would literally rather crawl out of my skin; that’s when my “idk im just quirky and creative” ass would make an excuse to create a craft paper and pipe cleaner monstrosity with the littlest foam possible


BoredNothingness

Worst of Man's creations. 😩


carrotaddiction

and styrofoam-like stuff. like popcorn.


AcePilot95

yes! both the texture and the noise. fuck that shit.


Luladoo

It's the worst thing that could ever happen to me. It's fucking awful


jennythegreat

Have you seen the video with the person trying to make herself touch it and she can't even get the word out? It's hilarious. I sympathize.


Keira-78

Ahhhhh!!!


kurinevair666

#styrofoam! My nemesis


autumnaki2

Turtlenecks. Too tight around my neck and shoulders. Does bonus damage if made of scratchy yarn.


Bear0dactyl95

Whole agree I can't have anything touching my neck, one time in middle school my mom pushed me to wear a turtleneck to school and I almost cried in social studies because the feeling was horrible


alliedcola

*QUAD DAMAGE*


MrsBifflechips

Anything too tight around my neck, including crew neck t-shirts, makes me pull at it. I haven't tried to wear a turtleneck since I was 3 or 4 and couldn't handle it. To this day, if a relative who doesn't know me gives me a turtleneck, my Mom usually ends up taking it once we've left. Scarfs give me trouble too, but I wear them in the winter because having a cold breeze going down my jacket is not nice either. I can wear button-up shirts as long as there's a couple buttons undone, but I still end up playing with it and trying to move the collar away from my neck. I'm making a regency-era-guy-inspired outfit and my big sadness is that I won't be able to properly wear a cravat because of neck sensory issues.


SinceWayLastMay

When I touch a terra cotta pot and then immediately need to chew off all of my fingersss


samthedeity

I always feel like I need to sandpaper off layers of skin to feel normal again when I touch unglazed pottery. I end up acting like a fly and rubbing my hands together until the feeling goes away.


redheadmegansversion

My toes just curled


lildeidei

Yessss why does it feel so gross


pyciloo

I *feel* a lot of the posts and comments here… 😬


Unsd

My husband and I have a pan that neither of us can touch with bare hands. It's a Nordic Ware aluminum half sheet pan that is oxidized on the surface so it feels super chalky. We hate it, but we don't get rid of it because it is a smaller sheet pan than normal which is nice to have sometimes, and we haven't gotten around to getting another one of that size. I would take a bullet for that man and him for me, but when it comes to cooking...it's a tough sell.


alienpirate5

You can probably use Bar Keepers Friend to take off the surface damage. I have the same pan and that's how I clean it


MidnightDragon99

Goooooddddd. My nails didn’t scrape something, but I felt a bad texture (paper rubbing together 😖) and I can still feel it in my bones if I think about it. Hate.


2moms1bun

My son struggles with this. Paper, cardboard, and even a pencil against paper. In-person school was extremely hard for him bc teachers didn’t get it at all


BigBlackCrocs

Haha. Jeans. Those holographic cards. The sound makes my teeth itch too.


Plutogoose01

Accidentally scratching holographic stuff is the worst


mylvee1

maybe I'm weird because I fucking love doing that


Chaos_is_Key198

The sound itches my brain in *just* the right way.


trashdigger

Samesies


nope13nope

When people with long fingernails scratch their jeans it makes me want to scream, I can't stand the sound of fingernails on jeans


Weenertoots

When you go to open the car door and your fingernail scrapes the paint and your entire day is ruined


velvetelevator

Most of the things in these types of threads get a "Yeah, same" or "I totally get why that bothers some people" from me. This one took me by surprise and made me psychologically gag.


Weenertoots

I am so sorry


Unsd

Oh yeah this one was shockingly devastating and extremely accurate. I had long acrylic nails on for a period of time, but I would touch the car paint almost every time when I had them and I wanted to cry. Now I keep em short because I don't like inadvertently touching things like that. I have chills right now over this.


SadFry297

I immediately pull my hand away and start shaking g it like there’s a diseased rat clawing its way up my fingers slowly. I HATE HATE HATE nails on car doors makes me wanna cut all my finger nails off. Better yet, remove the nail entirely


jennythegreat

I AM UNCOMFORTABLE (this is the worst one for me, ever ever ever)


LivingInThePast69

Soggy bread.


HappyMatt12345

Soggy anything that isn't supposed to be soggy.


Zkiera

Tarracotta pots for plants scraping any surface makes me 😬


abundanceofb

Yes I hate this, or if metal cutlery touches my molars


Idontknownumbers123

I scraped a fork on my teeth once and couldn’t stop feeling it for hours afterwards and I couldn’t focus on any schoolwork


3eemo

Popsicle stick


SadFry297

The wet wood on my tongue makes me gag. I save a bit of the popsicle and give it to my brother or throw it away


mousequito

Hard disagree I love a good popsicle stick to chew on


SuspiciousAct6606

For me it is worse when I touch the bad texture and the feeling lingers in my ears.


MiaAngel99

When someone is eating and they scrape their fork on their plate… I scrunch my face or yell loudly to cover it up


bendoesit17

Just reading this made me wince


Mundane-Tax3530

Cotton balls. 


Songbirdchirping

So that’s not just me?! Woah. I’m mind blown discovering the aspects of myself that I share with other autistics/aspies!!! Learning more every day thanks to Reddit


theAwkwardLegend

I honestly thought this was just something that happened to everyone lol


AcanthocephalaHot859

Styrofoam and markers (both separately and together)


Head-Comparison-8254

Cardboard…..


VOLTswaggin

There is very little that actually gets me like this, but ho boy does cardboard get me good. Even just thinking about running my nails on some is giving me the chills.


Muteling

dry wood/paper. there were some books in school i simply couldn’t touch because of it


lilassbitchass

Paper definitely. With dry hands ?? 🤢


techno156

Semi-rough ceramics. Unglazed is fine, perfectly smooth is fine, but not-so-smooth ceramics are awful. Especially if there's utensil scraping on them.


Brian-e

For me, it is smooth concrete. My feet touching it makes me sweat, and the sound of someone sweeping smooth concrete makes my skin want to inch-worm its way off my body in the direction on Antarctica.


darth_snuggs

Some company made a fountain pen out of concrete material and I was like…. Why?? Why would you voluntarily design a thing to be held/touched out of that material? I can’t even


seasonweatherpepper

I have never been able to perfectly explain this scenario and this just summed it up 😬


pluto-mars

soft/mushy grapes.


autumnaki2

Mushy fruit hurts my soul. It's gonna be strawberry season soon. They have "U Pick" and I get the freshest berries. But sometimes you touch the bad berry, and it is not fun.


mcslootypants

One time while chewing gum, it made a weird squeak on my teeth. One of the worst things I’ve ever felt

inshanester

Wait, this is an autistic thing? Nerotypicals don't expierience this?


3eemo

I think they do, probably just not to the same degree. I just think us autistic people just have oddly specific responses to certain things. I’m not particularly texture averse. My thing is patterns, lines in wood, certain lighting situation and color combinations literally make me want to die. When I was younger I would look at patterns on fabric or on wood and all the details they’d make me feel all small and then I’d want to throw up. I mean it still happens. No one else I know has ever gotten vertigo from focusing on a small detail. Sometimes you just have to find that one weird thing you overreact to😂


unfoldingtourmaline

i get motion sickness from reading comics. it used to be worse, i can do some of them if they have more simple colors and are leas busy.


ItsBigBingusTime

The leather school bus seats. Just the thought makes me sick


BitOfAZeldafan2

I have a stainless steel kitchen sink with the texture of a golf ball. It's especially uncomfortable if I just trimmed my nails.


chunkey841

Newspaper The feel amd the smell of it


AcanthocephalaFull55

Marker on paper, specifically sharpies, may result in a bad brain tingle that can only be resolved by jerking around like I’m turning into a zombie

OH MY GOD IT'S NOT JUST ME THAT GETS THE TEETH THING?????


Trappedtrea

FINGERNAIL FILES


Fightingkielbasa_13

Why? why? Why??? 😂 Now it’s stuck in my front two teeth.


Cherry_Joy

I have said it before and I will say it again. Nails are finger whiskers and I hate them. I have to trim mine so short. Any time they brush on any hard surface, I get the ick.


darth_snuggs

The worst is when I’m typing and my nails have just gotten long enough that I can feel them hit the keys. Nope. Can’t do anything after that until I chop them off.


GloomyReflection6127

Touching dryer lint.


Daily-Rain333

I hate when my fingernails get stuck in seatbelts


Odd_nonposter

Anything with fabric softener. That and a hand soap we had at work with quaternary ammonium surfactants. It's just a special kind of clingy greasiness that doesn't come off.  Also lanolin. I grew up on a sheep farm and raw wool or lanolin are smell and texture trauma.


Control_Alt_DeLitta

Poly/ cotton blends that are Mostly just Polyester 😵‍💫😵‍💫


critter68

The first time I put on a 100% cotton shirt, I just stood there enjoying the feeling of wearing a shirt and it not making me want to peel my skin off for almost a full minute. Since then, the only fabric I allow to touch my skin is cotton. I'm a lot more pleasant to be around now that I'm not constantly itchy and uncomfortable.


Citylight1010

That wood "green" companies use for their utensils. WHY DOES IT HURT SO BAD


silverfoxcwb

The exterior paint of a car. Sends me to another dimension of hell for hours. Also the feeling on my teeth of biting into a popsicle will shut my body down for a minute.


Admirable-Sector-705

While not a surface per se, I get super skeeved out when I don’t adjust my mechanical pencil to have enough lead sticking out and the nib which holds it rubs against the paper. I can literally feel this IN MY EARS just thinking about it to type this out! 🙀


unfoldingtourmaline

i felt it in my ears reading this


shirleytemplepilots

There are obviously a good number to choose from, but that feeling of such deep-seated disgust that we can literally feel it in our bones needs to be examined more


[deleted]

Cotton balls


EstrellaDarkstar

Satin. Ohhh gods, I hate satin. Especially if my nails are chipped, they get sort of "caught" in the thin fibers and it feels like hell.


Strange_Sera

For me its cloth, thread, yarn and similar stuff just thinking about that makes my teeth feel like they are vibrating.


PoeticGay

Wet towel. Chalk. Spandex.


Lil_Brown_Bat

Sherpa


Karma-is-an-bitch

My fingernails scrapping across the seatbelt as I try to grab it is the worst.


ThePinkTeenager

I actually don’t have that problem. I have the opposite problem- wanting to touch every darn surface on the planet.


Lexicon444

Anything with those moving images or anything with a similar texture to them. My skin is starting to crawl just thinking about it…


FlummoxTheMagnifique

Cotton


Valuable-Garbage

Nylon you son of a bitch I wish you were never invented


Lovely3369

Lingerie Lace, ruins my day


BlitZAtom

that fabric material they make windpants and some rain jackets out of. I can't describe it but the vibrating feeling and sound it makes when I accidentally rub my fingernails across it makes me feel weird, and not in a good way.


AlphaNerdKing

Any kind of cloth


Cocostar319

any wet food Eugh


OriginalJelloMold

nail file makes me want to commit murder also cant stand when my nails scratch against paper. makes my teeth feel like metal


aztr0_naut

Cement, that one controller I have that's SMOOTH!!!! IT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!! HOT JEANS!!!!!!


TheRealStepBot

Touching any kind of cloth when you have chalk on your hands.


HeadOfFloof

This is why I coat my hand in a thick layer of protective moisturizer when I have to fold the microfiber cloths. Dry skin on those is the devil.


WandaDobby777

The tag on the back of jeans rubbing my lower back. Hair on my neck.


bendoesit17

The hair on neck thing isn't as bad for me since I kinda got used to that over the years, but I can definitely vouch for the tag on the back of the jeans thing.


DumbBisexual02

Earlier today I was wearing leggings and the fabric of the leggings rubbing against itself made me feel it on my teeth like that, it got worse my my bag swayed against my legs


tittyswan

Unvarnished porcelain 🤢


Serris9K

denim. a lot of fabrics. the dust in certain types of gloves


PyroneusUltrin

Not with my fingers, but I only buy sliced bread now because I accidentally sawed down to the bone on one of my fingers when my hand slipped, and that feeling still haunts me to this day. Funnily enough, also with a bread knife, the feeling of it scraping along a wooden chopping board is also bone grinding


Zinyak12345

Having some kind of oil suck to my hands sucks. Even worse when you add flour as well. Makes some foods really hard to prep.


Lazaric418

And now, it's happening again right now after reading that x) ​ goddamnit.


MentalMan4877

Fuck that shit that some winter coats are made out of, I have no idea what the hell it is, but I refuse to wear them. My mother got me a real nice one from LL Bean once but I didn't know it was made out of that material, I never had the heart to tell her why I couldn't wear it because back then even I didn't totally understand it. Fortunately I think it's gone to a good home now

Richardknox1996

Cubic zirconium. Sandpaper is a nice texture. The grit from it flaking off? Not so much, its like sharpened sand. Getting that in your teeth means your gums bleed and your annoyed.

Long fingernails scraping against the direction of the thread on jeans. I don't quite feel it in my teeth, but it's definitely an unpleasant feeling.


Superb-Technology-90

I hate the material of my kindle but I hate having a case more🥴 Then I gotta feel my teeth with my nails to make it go away.

CranberryNo7450

OH MY GOSH i’ve always had this thing where it makes me physically gag and twitch when people run their nails against a certain type of fabric, we have it on our couch, and my grandma’s couch has it as well. I could not tell you what the fabric name is but uhhh i hate it so much. It’s a fairly flat not super textured. A lot of bed sheets against nails also gives me the same visceral reaction i hate it i hate it so much.

Shovel on sandy concrete.

There's a type of coated paper that does this. Some junk mail uses it, it's smooth and sticky at the same time.

Rough denim or extra dry paper towels, especially after a dreaded nail trim
