Weird visceral reactions

Post Reply New Topic

Do you find some people absolutely repulsive? I was having a conversation about actors with a friend and she couldn't understand why I had such a strong negative reaction to a certain actor, well, Olivia Colman. She's pretty normal, but I can't stand her.

The way my friend reacted made me feel like my intense feelings are not normal. It's like sensory issue. I have misophonia. It's similar. I had a book about exercise and one of the models was so revolting to me that I had to get rid of the book.

It's like the feeling I have for fabric covered books. I can't touch them. It turns my stomach. Some people make me feel like that.

I just wanted to share my weird thing.

I’ve never felt that way about a person.

I’ve been grossed out by the scent of some people, though.

I'm sure it's the tone of voices.

Emma Thompson and Phoebe Waller Bridge make me feel like that too. Chris Barrie as well.

I really don't think I'm normal in this regard.

It's why I was always so upset when men rejected me. The only reason I wouldn't give someone a chance is if I found them absolutely repulsive, so I must be repulsive.

It's 3am here. Middle of the night thoughts.
