Sensory Icks - Tumblr Posts

A collection of autism creatures with different sensory issues. Some of the “creature discomforts” include “icky light”, “bad noise”, “restless”, and “icky shirt”. They all have a different disgusted facial expression.

These were made to be reaction images, but it was taking too long to format them properly, so I figure I’ll just post them like this and post them again if I ever do get them formatted.

I am… quite closely acquainted with some of these.

An autism creature wearing a blue shirt with a dozen sensory issues going on. The creature is looking at the viewer, seemingly pleading for the suffering to end.

I had to format all the pictures on my last post like this so I could send them to my phone, so behold: me at the public pool

Wearing gloves has been such a game changer for me, I never would have guessed.

We had to wear gloves at the factory I worked in, for security reasons - and I found out that I really liked it. Instead of touching 100 different textures in a single day you only come in contact with one - your gloves !

In retail, it's the same thing- gloves aren't mandatory at all, but I wear them all day just because it feels better to not feel anything. And it protects my fingers from the cold, splinters, or expired food, which is a neat bonus.

Now considering buying some stylish gloves to wear all day, at home. When cleaning, or even cooking (dry wooden spoons are sensory hell and can go die in a fire), idk I just feel like I unlocked a cheat code.

I understand some people might hate the feeling of fabric/security gloves but it's been a nice experience for me, and I encourage you to try it some time :D
