I absolutely loathe shoes and boots because it causes my feet to overheat and then my whole body feels uncomfortable. I am a dedicated sandal wearing unless there's literally snow outside.
One of my teeth is sort of in the middle of my mouth - I had an issue with it not coming in straight so an ortho pulled it down through the roof of my mouth and it was never really worth it to pull it into place. It's fun to fidget with with my tongue.
For the teeth i have something similar. My last baby tooth was just removed last year even tho i am +18, turns out my adult tooth was growing below it all this time and now its behind my row of teeths and i can't stop rubbing it with my tongue and its damn sharp that its driving me insane
I am gonna remove it too but unfortunately we dont have the money for that now
I had two of those as a kid. They put little chains around them and pulled them down into place.
That was the plan with mine but I was a terrible patient.
I can feel when lights are turned on or shine at me. Taking photos with a flash for example feels like a hot wave to me. I think that is a side effect of my ASD, the poor stimulus filtering to be exact
Also I can hear most electric devices because of that. Charging them for example has a loud high frequency noise. Not just cheap chargers, almost all electronic devices
I don't get fevers. My immune system is above average, I don't have any diseases which affect my immune system, and nobody's sure why I don't get fevers.
I have hyperphantasia, so when I imagine things, they look as real as real life, or like I'm watching a movie scene.
I also have hyperthymia, which means I'm in a near continual state of mild mania (and I enjoy it!)
I sneeze when the temperature changes significantly. I have no idea why.
I too get the hot ears. I always worry it's a tell in poker.
so its visible to other ppl too for u. Can other ppl feel ur ear being hot? Do you have dust allergies or allergies in general?
I think it's pretty wild that the body will just accept exogenous cross-sex hormones and start using them without issue.
EDIT: well, a caveat would be that cross-sex hormones would cause gender dysphoria for cis populations, and their brains don't function as well on them, but I meant more like even a cis person's body will grow boobs on estrogen or grow thick dark hair and develop stronger body odor on testosterone. It's just wild the body is so adaptable, though maybe it shouldn't be surprising since most people have all the hormones, just in varying amounts.
Sneezing when I eat too much, typically 3 times.
I can pop my ears whenever I want, like someone else mentioned. Handy on flights, but I haven't been able to teach my kids how. If I forget to blink for a bit and then blink involuntarily when my eyes itch, my jaw snaps shut also involuntarily, causing my teeth to snap together. I can roll my tongue, which is apparently a genetic thing. I can hear high frequency sounds, like bats, and rodent repellents. It can be painfully loud when noone else around me can hear them, so they have a degree of disbelief if I mention it.
I sneeze when I walk outside on a sunny day
Ah, the Autosomal-dominant Compelling Helio-Ophthalmic Outburst. AKA ACHOO Syndrome
lol, that backronym is a bit of a stretch. Saying “I have a photic sneeze reflex” explains what I have. Saying “I have Autosomal-dominant Compelling Helio-Ophthalmic Outburst” makes me sound I’m having a stroke and saying “I have ACHOO” makes me sound stupid 😅
When I eat a few dill pickles, my scalp tingles. It's mostly a pleasant sensation.
Chilly does the same thing for me, but it is never pleasant. Now that i think about it its more like an inch under my scalp than a tingles
Also chilly makes me produce thicker and more saliva for almost 24hrs that i have to spit in a bin regularly
I can feel pain in my back and knees when I'm tired. That may be a tell that I'm getting old
I often have weird shakes when falling asleep, something like with epileptic seizure but only for a second
Sometimes I have this weird fucked up perception of scale or distance, laying in bed and it feels like the ceiling is like going far away. Also sometimes had this very anxious feeling of something like sheet of paper being crushed or something. Don't remember when these last happened but was really common when I was a kid
