Textures you love/hate

[justme6565]

I thought this would be a helpful thread- list textures you either love, hate, or use to calm you down.

One that always calms me down if I'm in Sensory Overload or just stressed out is gum in my mouth. There's just something about the full feeling in my mouth combined with the chewing motion that just delights me.

I hate the feeling of lathery/sticky things, such as the liquid that you use to blow bubbles. I was helping my little cousin blow bubbles today, and he spilled the bottle on to my hands by accident... ... It was not very comfortable...

Love: velvet, silk, fake fur
Hate: denim, lace, wool, things with loads of seams, skirts/dresses: can feel them 'flapping' against legs, plus can feel it restricting movement, wetness..eugh!

[Remus]

I love things like bubble wrap and sand.

What I hate though is ice lolly sticks on your teeth *shudders* and wooden rolling pins in water!

Love:
Soft stuff: Some clothes, blankets my teddy bear etc.

Hate:
Eating sticky food (eg chocolate with caramel)
Being sticky/dirty: I wash my hands like 30 times a day BUT

I cut the label out too, but normaly because I keep rubbing the label. Apparently this is normal behaviour for babies .

I'm starting to realise why so few pepole take me seriously
