When I Get Sad/upset It Gets Like Achey And Itchy(???) I Cant Really Explain It - Blog Posts

for me its mostly my neck/upper shoulders and middle bottom of my rib cage like where it splits in the center when i get sad/upset it gets like achey and itchy(???) i cant really explain it for my neck/upper shoulders i just hold a lot of tension there and sometimes ill like involantarily shake/shiver or my head will jerk to the side when i get to anxious its kinda a tic i guess? also im almost certainly autistic also (tw for sh) the achey/itchy feeling in my lower chest when im upset is where my urge to stab myself comes from bc its very unpleasent and my brain went 'you know what would relieve this feeling? being stabbed in that spot' which... no i dont think it would but ok
