Up until I was about 10, I slept in a double bed with my older sister -12.... about at 8 years old, i became frantic is the word - crying, and such... (we worn nighties made by our Grandma)

"I didn't want any piece or part of her skin touching mine"
This nightly battle went on for a couple of years.. My sister did not abuse me...

I would wake up sometimes on the thread of the stairs... I felt safe in the stairwell...

T said "perhaps it was because there was no clear cut boundaries in my home"

I just want to know if I was the only person to have a weird skin adversion....there weren't hugs or anything at my house so ...I don't know... I just remember the nightly crying....
