i hate being touched, sometimes i can handle it but if i'm already in some kind of stress and someone touches me i start shakin and crying and wanting to rip my skin off
i'm used to blame this on ocd but i dont know
anyone feels something like this?

I can be jumpy and skittish about personal space, myself, not in the reaction you've described, but I can appreciate that it's a real reaction the being touched or having personal space infrindged upon. Have you asked in ptsd? I ask because I'm trying to think where you might find more shared experiences.

Not all the time but I have had times when touch is hard to tolerate and I usually need to prepare myself, my therapist reached out to me last week when I was upset and I jumped right back.
