Sensitivity To Touch

[LUH 3417]

what causes a person to be sensitive to touch?
Some days I notice touch can be electrifying while other days I don’t feel anything. Similar with feeling things in my body in general. Have you ever spoken to someone and felt like their words were making your organs vibrate, like the energy radiating from a person was being perceived and processed not just by your brain but by your entire body?
I know I took a lot of magnesium yesterday but I would like to know more about this. Low serotonin? Less in your head and more in your body?

Yes low serotonin probably (if you mean it in a good way and not due to endotoxin). Lots of aspirin, coffee, sugar, whole milk makes me feel this way (and pregnenolone back when I took it). Whereas starch, phosphate, alcohol, being mean to people (so I guess this releases serotonin...?) does the opposite.

It sounds similar to frission, which apparently women are more likely feel than men. And women tend to have lower serotonin.

That article is focusing on taste but it can be extrapolated to general sensoria. I notice the feeling you describe when I've been regularly exercising, getting abundant macronutrients, during meditation, and when I used to use marijuana. Just taking a deep breath would trigger a body-wide tickle of euphoria. I can still do that now to a lesser extent.

I experience this due to thyroid issues and inflammation
