hi
I'm struggling right now with something and would like some feedback. I've got a lot of trauma in my background due to CSA and 18 surgeries and multiple hospitalizations. I also have a disability which confines me to a power chair. Due to all this, my perception of touch is distorted. I've come to the conclusion that I am touch-starved for positive, healthy touch....however, I'm so desperate for touch that I am afraid I'll settle for any type of touch I can get, even if it's not healthy. Anyone else know what I'm talking about? Can someone possibly give me some advice or tips on how to get the touch I crave in a safe way? All help is much appreciated........I feel I am slowly dying from lack of touch.......apparently failure-to-thrive due to inadequate touch doesn't just apply to infants. Thanks in advance.
