[rl] man, when you remember a thing from childhood and look at it now like "oh... that sure was Nerodivergance in spades huh"

raspberrydrink
for me today that moment remembering how I had a deep irrational revulsion of stickers

raspberrydrink
stickers on paper? fine, that is where they go

raspberrydrink
stickers on mirrors/walls/items? no no no that is not okay

raspberrydrink
sticker on ME, legit freakout

raspberrydrink
STICKY BAD NO STICKY

raspberrydrink
hell I Still cant handle being sticky but it's more sugar/food sticky

raspberrydrink
one if my earliest memories is of a mirror at my nana's house with a cat sticker on it

raspberrydrink
and it was one of those raised ones with fur on it

raspberrydrink
and I liked to touch the fur but I LOATHED it being there

raspberrydrink
but was too scared if getting in trouble to take it off cuz it wasnt mine

raspberrydrink
I must have been like 6

raspberrydrink
and I didnt have words then but it WAS revulsion

lucineblue
OH HEY

raspberrydrink
likening felt physically ill looking at stickers in places stickers dont go and that's so... something??? do much lol

lucineblue
Not so much stickers but omg, little like... pompoms on hats or feather boas still make me shudder in revulsion and I couldn't figure out why

raspberrydrink
YEAH

raspberrydrink
like maybe theres some trauma I dont remember my brain associated with them but I dont THINK do

raspberrydrink
