Do any other aspies have an over sensitive gag reflex?
Both me and my AS son do. A visit to the dentist is a nightmare! I'm interested to know if it's an aspie thing, possibly connected to the fact we both have over sesitive to touch, or just a genetic co-incidence.
You will get a self-selecting group of Aspies that answers your post, and that will probably be skewed towards people that have noticed the same thing in themselves. Thats not gonna answer whether its an Aspie thing or not.
Surely everybody gags if you brush your tongue. I'm gagging thinking about it. Thats not a thing thats made it into UK dental health yet in my experience. But im sure its coming cos you can then sell tongue cleaners and god forbid there was a part of the planet that didn't yet have tongue cleaners. Your tongue cleans itself dont it?
