      OP has sensory issues related to neurodivergence. It’s not uncommon, I have an undiagnosed family member in denial who can’t stand touching anything plastic.

        Or they have dry hands that catch on stuff like microfiber cloths. I hate touching them when my hands are dry and rough from doing yard work or woodworking, but no issue when they aren’t.

      There are people who indiscriminately crosspost things between ADHD and autism communities as if they aren’t two different conditions.

          Maybe not, but people with adhd are definitely more likely to talk about something that bothers them

          There are no single symptoms that mean you have adhd. But texture sensitivity is sometimes one of them.
