Piercing, scars or any other noticeable thing like that in someone else gives me a sensation on the same spot on my body if I see/recognize/notice it. If someone gets punched, kicked or injured in a movie or such I also can get a similar sensation but to a lower degree if I frame it in my mind that it is fake, if someone visibly breaks a bone or gets injured in a sports game then that has a much more distinct, acute and entirely unpleasant sensation. I don’t watch much sports to keep that from happening.

I believe it is a type of synesthesia called Mirror Touch.

nixon 7 points a year ago

Yeah, I think it is common in some regards.

The current prevailing theory on how synesthesia happens in the human brain says that everyone is born with these connections but in early development the synaptic connections are sheared or closed off. Like how your brain will close off bad memories or certain emotions for trauma victims. It is believed to be a similar mechanism. The connection is still there but it is shut down and inaccessible. When people take hallucinogens and see colors or geometric shapes in their vision that is the drug reopening those closed synaptic connections temporarily.

The degree in which synaptic shearing happens or which synaptic connections get sheared are different for every person. So there could be, like, a bell curve, where some people have more connections throughout their life than others but the majority tend to group towards the middle of the curve. For mirror touch, and several other types of synesthesia, it tends to be a bit of a spectrum of those who don’t experience it to those who experience it acutely. Even then there are those who may experience it internally, like intellectually know there is a sensation and those who have some sort of physical reaction. Synesthesia presents itself in wildly different ways among those with the condition. There are many triggers and many different kinds of responses. If you have one type you are 50% likely to have 2 or 3 different types of synesthesia.

There are two main tranches that people with synesthesia fall into in regards to the affects of synesthesia; people either think everyone has the same thing and so they don’t talk about it or, once they do talk about it, discover not everyone experiences the same thing they do, or not to the degree in which they do. If the synesthetic response is strong, hard to ignore and not something people are used to hearing about then the synesthete (a person with synesthesia) tends to not talk about their condition due to fear of being ostracized or sent to a psychiatrist and etc.

I have Emotion>Color Synesthesia, along with several other types (including mirror touch). So my emotions present as colors projected into my vision. When talking about it as a kid I was sent to a psychiatrist as my parents thought I was making it up or crazy. I was put on anti-depressants which, surprise surprise, dulled my emotions and made the emotional>color synesthesia less pronounced but still there. Emotion wasn’t considered as a “sense” in the traditional meaning so it took a long time for me to figure out that it was synesthesia and how mine worked. Only in the later years of the 2000s did synesthesia start to come back into scientific research circles and with the internet it made it possible for edge cases, like myself, to start making contact with each other.

If you want to learn more about it then the book from 2009 called “Wednesday is Indigo Blue” is a great starting point and kinda spearheaded synesthesia coming back into public discourses. It is not a long book, gives a good overview of the condition and its many variations but is also approachable and not too heady.

Socks are required at all times, especially indoors, unless showering or in bed. No socks in bed. Socks may be taken off if my feet get too hot but the socks must be left nearby to put back on, and also feet cannot touch floor. Socks nearby can only be then used to retrieve new socks as socks should never be put back on once removed unless in an emergency such as getting too hot.

Ideally said socks are then inside slippers to provide additional insulation from evil floor textures, but no slippers without socks. Also socks can never be pure white, that is disgusting, socks must be ideally black, but dark is fine as long as not majority white fabric. Socks must be tight enough to not move, but also not too tight as to cause discomfort. Also that inside seam near the toes must never be noticeable. If it is, those are coming off immediately and getting thrown away.

Boy this sounds insane when I type out all my rules…

People are taking this as an assertion that sock preference should not be pathologized and cannot be related to ADHD.

I only wear socks when I have to, and then they have to match exactly. Otherwise, barefoot and flip flops as much as possible.

I hate socks on my little paws. So I just don't usually wear them unless I have to go into work. I also exclusively wear bearfoot shoes because I hate when the front of my paws are scrunched up.

Team socks, and if I need to be productive: socks, shoes and pants must be tight. Otherwise is couch potato mode and cannot function.

Both, kinda. I want to wear socks all the time but I can't stop myself from picking at them so they get holes within a few days. And I have sweaty feet so I always get lint stick between my toes, never found any sock that doesn't do that. So even though I want to wear them all the time there are enough annoyances from them to make me only wear them when I go to somewhere other than my apartment where I'll take my shoes off, like a friends place.

Used to wear no socks at all, had the stinkiest imaginable shoes, always damaged, lots of foot fungus and other feet-related health problems.

Now I'm wearing a fresh pair of sports-compression-socks every day and it's heaven for my feet.

I took a while to toughen up my feet, did some barefoot hiking and trail running. Now it honestly doesn't bother me. You can just get in the mood that, my feet are cold and that's fine. So I guess I wear socks when I want to.

wool stirup-ankle warmers finger shoes.

socks when no braincells, unless the floor is pretty clean. then warmers or barefoot.

Natural fibers only unless sport material. Too many brands sneaking polyester and acrylic in. Sweatmakers.

It costs so to opt out of plastic...

must have same size/tension. DIY taught me such.

BenVimes 2 points a year ago

Socks are worn for 99% of my waking hours. They only come off in specific circumstances, normally involving water.

The socks must be well-fitting and put on straight, pulled up to their natural height and tightness. I prefer socks that come halfway up my shins, and I only wear ankle socks when working out.

The socks must be a matched pair. No mixing between different colours, cuts, brands, etc.

No holes allowed; if a sock gets a hole of any size, it immediately goes in the garbage. The widowed sock goes on my dresser until an appropriate mate is made by the splitting up of another pair.

On the other hand, I never sleep in socks under any circumstances. I find I get too warm.

For me it's temperature based. I'm wearing socks unless the temperature is above 27 Celsius, at which point I'm comfortable wearing shorts and sandals.

Under 23 C my entire skin needs covering except hands & head. I cannot stand exposed skin at that point.

When it's below 5 C I wear long socks because I lose a lot of heat through they legs.

I wear "toe" shoes that don't need socks most of time. The calluses on the balls of my feet sometimes get too dry and tear holes in my socks, which gets a little frustrating. I usually can't stand the sensation of most socks, but I am good with my injijis or the comfy smart wool socks for boots. I can't wear any socks to bed as they get twisted and cut off circulation. So, unless if I absolutely need them for my footwear, or it gets too cold, I am not wearing them.

I love socks, but nowadays any sock size over 44-45 is 44-45. Buy "large socks" 47? Still 44-45. 52? Believe it or not, still 44-45.

I'm like 45-46 and it sucks. God I'd love a pair of thick beautiful socks.

While they are a US brand and are very likely out of the question for the foreseeable future, Darn Tough does those larger sizes. So, they are out there. Just need to find an non-US brand.

If anyone know a European version I'm all for it, but you see even here they sell 46-49, I mean 46 would be maybe a little tight, 49 I would swim in them!

The "normal" size gets 41-42 though, only 2 "steps".

Thanks though! The search goes on...

I was a "socks at all times" person but then I learned my constant sock wearing was causing some minor foot problems and found love for the feeling of my feet being free of socks so now I'm strictly "socks exactly half of the time" kinda person. My family isn't sure what to make of actually seeing my bare feet from time to time now since neither they nor I ever did see my feet before very recently

Never liked socks much. Wore them sporadically.

Then I got neuropathy. Feels like I am wearing steel wool. Been years now and I will never wear them again.

I have slippers for when I visit which is rarely anyhoo.
