It's not all the time. I will feel really really sensitive to touch, sound and taste. Feels like there is dirt or something in my mouth. Touching stuff feels so uncomfortable. Sounds are extra loud. Laying my head on the head rest of my car seat is like laying on tinfoil and its krinkling. Same with my mouth, it's like there is tinfoil in there. It reminds me of OCD and not feeling clean but it never happens at home so it makes me think it's an anxiety thing of some sort. Idk. Anyone experience this ever?

I get hypersensitive to sounds sometimes. It's overwhelming and frustrating. It tends to occur in mixed episodes for me.

When hypo yes, sometimes touch is painful, my skin actually burns, lights are blinding,sound is deafening, it's all very overwhelming. Thank God I don't always experience it all at once, and it doesn't happen in every cycle.


Probably just the really intense ones, idk, I don't really study them.

I have experienced sensitivity to sound and touch as well every now and then. I've never payed attention as to what was going on with me at the time?

I get this quite a bit. Especially sensitivity to sounds and touch. It gets to the point where I can't even have my wife hug me or touch me in any way. The sensitivity to sound becomes so overwhelming I have to leave or have a breakdown.

I feel like sound is very disturbing and like Christina I use headphones and choose what I want to hear which is difficult at times because everything can bother me sometimes I just put on people talking to each other that's usually not very invasive to me.
Sometimes I feel weird I call it uncomfortable in my own skin because nothing feels right, I usually don't eat in those situations even my favorite foods taste and smell foreign.
