Touch Triggers, better known as TT is a phenomenon that describes people in Pony Town as people that hate being touched in game. The people with TT claim that its a trigger than can cause serious issues like hesrt attacks, panic attacks, etc. But what is TT? Today I want to take an analytical look at this Pony Town phenomenon and kindly point out the facts of both sides and share some thoughts about it.

On the facts that Danny stated in regards to sexual abuse playing part in a touch trigger it is quite accurate, as someone who has dealt with sexual abuse in my past and am now dealing with PTSD to this day I can say that yes sometimes it can cause anxiety although for me it's really only there in real life or when explicit sexual things are brought up in games regardless of what game (It as a matter of fact happened to me in Minecraft where I had a panic attack as the individual began doing a sort of ERP with me without consent and ignoring that I was very likely a minor) and it's especially prominent with those I knew from when I was incredibly young. Additionally I completely agree with Danny's point in which you have an in game touch trigger where you will have full on panic attacks because of something of the sort I beg you please do get help, because you will suffer a lot, additionally and I'm not trying to be mean but if you have a lot of people going after you for having a potential sensitivity to being touched then you can get a couple friends who you trust and play on the Party Island instead so you are somewhere that people wont be able to upset you. Now of course I still see the reason that many individuals don't believe that it can potentially cause anxiety and or discomfort. But please just don't try to start a fight in regards to it because it's pointless and if they do get anxiety due to being touched in game then it could potentially make the problem worse so just don't.

Practically, tt is just a mock, there's a touch phobia, and tt is considered a mock, why? Because you can't get triggered in a 8bit game, like bro? You're just in a game that has booping, and most of the TT are fake because I see most in a crowded area and touching people

As someone who feels like puking when my dad sits close to me, I probably do have a serious TT. But being in PT is very comforting, it's where I can chase around pretending to beat each other with brooms, cuddle and kiss, with people I met a minute ago. I completely don't understand how a TT can be in a 2D game, but respecting other's wishes is usually not that hard. Unless they yell at me for being closer than 3 horse lengths away or something, if you have time to yell at me you have time to hide me, so stfu.

tbh, if someone has touch trigger then okay fine. but this is just my opinion: i don't understand touch triggers in a pixel horse game, i understand if someone can get uncomfortable when a player is too close but some people gotta learn the difference between an actual trigger and discomfort. when i used to play ponytown more there was nobody with triggers and now ponytown is full of these people who either joke about having TT or who are being serious. it was so hard to play, where ever you go there are people who have TT and then they complain about the people. if someone has actual TT or just discomfort they should sit far away from others and not cry when a place is crowded. i remember when i was playing with a big group of people and we were at that area first, then someone with TT came there and sat with us then they asked us to move..? not everyone knows that some people has tt or td. so if someone has TT then fine, but just stay away from people. i didn't mean to disrespect anyone with this comment, so if you got mad at me get out, i hope that you guys understand my point, i do not want to start a fight with my honest opinion 🙏 edit: if you have an actual TT irl, then i understand that even more than the triggers in a pony game

If that player came to you and touched you then got made for being touched, they are in the wrong. It can't be justified and is an example of a player that might be one of the fakers. I can see why you think the way you do if those are the experiences you have had.

i also have haphephobia due to trauma and mental disorders which just make things more extreme than things actually are... basically i have TT irl. when im in game, it rly isnt bad.. the worst it is is giving me a little anxiety and a few of these full body shivers i get when being touched irl. i dont get triggered and rage at someone if they touch me, i just simply hide them. it isnt that hard. i honestly think the majority of ppl who claim to have TT actually just want ppl not to interact with them, or theyre simply exaggerating the slight discomfort they get if someone repeatedly boops them of something. JUST PUT DNI IN UR NAME!!! editing to add on: it honestly hurts when i see these ppl who claim to have TT sit in the middle of the fucking road or something and then rage when someone walks past them. its pretty much mocking ppl who actually have it. dissapointing

Glad someone made a video about TT on Pony Town. I respect TT/TD, I mean I have a friend with TT and another with KT (Kiss trigger), and if you have TT, heres my advice: 1. Do not sit in crowded areas, such as Spawn, 18+ Docks, ect. Yes, I understand wanting to meet more people in certain areas to make new friends with similar interests, but it could lead to getting touched by a stranger on accident due to where you sit; as an example, FNF/NG area on PG server, (using as a example since I'm most often there.) Don't sit at the wall, bench, or path; sit at let's say on or next to the cliffs, you're less likely to get touched, and it's still quite close to FNF/NG area. 2. If someone wont leave you alone, HIDE THEM. I understand not liking to hide people (I don't like hiding people myself), BUT there comes a point where you NEED to hide someone, so please, don't yell or fight, just hide them, its a feature for a reason. 3. If you just plan on talking to your friends, do it on Party Island, not in Public. No strangers are going to touch you there.

I’m gonna put my opinion here too: TT/TD/CD/ETC. Are there to try and make gameplay more comfortable. Except when people use that knowledge to make you more uncomfortable. I myself do not have a TT/TD normally, but I do have a skin for if I’m disturbed and need a bit of space. I never understood it fully until those small moments. It’s hard to explain, but to me when i am infact using that skin and someone sits next to me, it basically simulates sitting next to someone in a bus in my head. I’m nervous. I don’t know how else to explain it. But even before I had a somewhat idea of what it’s like, I still thought if it as something I should just respect. It may not make sense, but just try to make others comfortable and welcome. Yeah I probably did an awful job at explaining my view and I apologize for that but uh best attempt

The one thing that confuses me with the whole touch trigger/touch discomfort issue (actually this goes for any issue that occurs in PT) is that...why can't they just hide them? Like if you hide them, they can't really mess with you anymore so, I don't see what the issue is. I feel like a lot of people in PT forget that the hiding/muting option is a thing and just sometimes make an issue that can easily be avoided more worse than it needs to be.

Thank you for this!! I personally am uncomfortable with random people touching me (and also interacting with me) because I have pretty severe social anxiety (which I'm diagnosed with, but currently unable to get help for atm but plan to when I'm able to) as well as autism and several other NDs, all of which I'm diagnosed with, but I personally don't put TT in my name (as it's not an actual trigger), I put either TD (touch discomfort) or DNT (do not touch), and depending on how I'm feeling DNI (do not interact). Players walking through me or accidentally touching me doesn't bother me, but intentional touching like booping, kissing, etc does cause me anxiety, especially unexpectedly or without warning me first. I generally avoid crowded areas and I spend a lot of time on party island, although at times I'm feeling more okay I will go and just chill in more crowded areas, mostly to people (pony?) watch/look at people's skins (my anxiety levels fluctuate depending on many factors). This also doesn't apply to just pony town, this applies to other games and real life. I'm totally cool with touching and interactions with friends/family, it's just strangers/people I don't know well. Generally, if I say something, I'm okay with people interacting with me, and if I'm not, I take measures to prevent being touched, and in the event I am touched, I'll either just walk away or explain to them that I'm not comfortable with it. (I would also like to note that even though I'm an adult (18), I'm uncomfortable with seggsual/sensitive topics so I always stay in the safe server, I've never even been in the 18+ server.) I really appreciate your unbiased opinion, and I really hope that the people who genuinely do get triggered by it get better, and that the people just doing it for a trend learn that having a trigger isn't cool at all :) (btw I don't normally talk with this much perfect grammar, I just thought I'd have better grammar here since it's a pretty long comment)

I think you have a very fair opinion on this. I myself suffer from haphephobia in real life and have since Elementary. It used to be so bad that when someone would touch me, I’d pass out. Even friends or family. My haphephobia is gotten much better over the years to where it is more of a discomfort. I’m able to tolerate close friends and family with warning and I’m also able to completely handle my boyfriend. This has been such a struggle my whole life. I recently came back to pony town, which I have been playing since grass art and dark crappy outlines, to suddenly see “TT” plastered everywhere. Once I figured out what it was it felt like a joke to me. People I asked didn’t even know what haphephobia was. I would get yelled at for lagging into players, or simply walking into a player when they were in my path. In my own opinion, triggers are going over board. But, in the end even though I do not understand it, I will still respect people with it and not bother them or purposely touch them. It does make me feel like a joke sometimes but that’s the price I play for playing in the 18+ server. My word of advice for people with TT. Go to the safe servers.

Simple to say-- They likely don't. It's impossible to have a touch TRIGGER in a 2D video game. The people that say this normally are using it as an excuse for other characters not to touch theirs. Normally 3D games (known as VR for the most part) are notorious for people with touch triggers since you yourself are actually playing the character IN the game. As a PT player I can say 70% of the players I've seen on PT have 'TT' or 'TD' in their name. It's just odd

As someone who personally has occasional touch discomfort caused by literally being s.xually h.rassed irl, I can understand both sides. Like mentioned, it's easy to let the person with td/tt be as well as hiding someone who purposely pushes your buttons. Also, there are some quiet places on PT that can easily be found if you just wonder around, I'm sure you'll find someplace you can consider safe outside of party island. Yelling at each other will not only take more effort, but it'll start actual hate and discourse between the two sides and we don't want that. To put it simply; don't give anyone your attention if they seem to be purposely bothering you. Likewise, watch out for fakers who also purposely gets in your space only to blame you for 'triggering' them.

I do not have a touch trigger or anything relating to it. But I have had encounters with people in ponytown that claim to have TT. I haven't had an encounter with someone who seems to be obviously faking it. I also encountered someone who said they were going to go around booping people to prove whether or not they are faking it, which really just rubs me the wrong way. I personally feel like even if you do think they night be faking it, don't go out of your way to prove it just incase. My sister has had an encounter with someone who was very obviously faking it and got angry at her for simply walking past them and their group of friends, but she walked by again later on with a different skin and they didn't say jack squat until she changed into the pony she was before they got mad at her again. I can't stand when someone is faking a disorder, I also can't stand when someone goes out of their way to prove whether or not someone is faking it. It's best to just leave them alone.

Honestly this is a very good video on the subject. I personally don't believe TT as I've always felt like it popped up out of nowhere and spread almost suspiciously quickly, not to mention the lack of any real scientific or psychological studies into the phenomena and it not existing in, really, any other game with the possible exception to VR, and I do sympathize with any haphephobes IRL who feel mocked by TT. That said, I've been successfully ignoring TTs/TDs for the most part, since I don't want to cause any of what I've come to call "Twitter drama". Unfortunately I don't think anyone can be expected to just mouse over a pony while they are wandering around the map to avoid accidentally 'touching' someone who supposedly has TT, as its just not something you think about while exploring since its all done with the keyboard. I wish more of us who didn't believe TT could at least be more respectful and not go out of their way to harass or troll people with it, just as I wish people who claim to have TT would do anything they need to to better understand their condition, as I'm sure there must be something to it that's probably not even directly related to touch, and preferably stay away from known crowded areas in game, and try to give those who don't know the benefit of the doubt. Whew that's a long comment. Honestly I have been pretty opinionated on the topic for the longest time, guess I'm finally confident to make a publicly facing comment about it now instead of just several smaller comments on Discord servers or among close friends.

Yes I agree it spread suspiciously quick but I think part of that is in the large number of people that saw the TT thing and thought either 1)"I'm gonna pretend to have this to feel special!" or 2)"I'm gonna add this to my name so people leave me along because people are annoying" Or something similar to those ideas. Essentially only a small portion of people actually seem to have it from what I've experienced in the 18+ english server. But it doesn't make them all fake

There's a difference between discomfort and triggers and I feel that's what has people more annoyed and confused about. I respect triggers and all, but I feel the touch trigger can only happen in deep world games such as VR, not a pixle game like Pony town. There isn't no physical contact, just pixles. I feel if someone is really bothered by others being near them or touching them then they need to seek help. This is going to sound mean, but its the truth. You can't expect everyone to respect your trigger or understand it. So in order to avoid that you should distance yourself from the game and seek professional help. If games such as Pony Town cause you to have to tell others constantly about your trigger, then I suggest just seeking help and playing a game that doesn't make you feel that way. Simple as that.

At this point in time, I honestly feel like the TT/TD thing is like tik tok and DID, there’s a sudden rise in it; for no reason really, many people faking. Except pony town is different, I have actual trauma from physical abuse when I was little and *hate* touch, no matter what; my therapist has said td/tt in the likes of ponytown literally does not exist, an exception is vr games.

I feel quite relieved that you did make a video about this, you have a fair amount of following and its good that it will help both sides of the arguement understand, considering most of the people who claim they have tt are possibly kids, since minors who dont know any better tend to go on 18+ as well. I agree that possibly those people who go to crowded areas are faking it, because i saw someone complain about a regiment occupying the docks to roleplay saying things like "illegal parking, thats the TT area you are occupying it" wtf? There wont entirely be a TT area. And this whole thing happened a few weeks when everyone argued that no one owns the ponytown game and there will always be changes, and that you dont own a spot on the map. Overlapping ppl and being near them Unknowingly abt their discomforts, i just move further away and give people space and apologise, i respect if you claim to have TT just please dont yell at people who genuinely arent aware. I fear the humiliation of having people say bad sht and rumours about you just because you did something they didnt like, it will end really bad and suck so hard when you no longer feel safe with a skin you love Hosting school rps tend to get hard as well because people get upset whenever someone with TT joins in, I admit that i get annoyed but not because they have TT or claim they do, I get annoyed at the chaos and arguments that will insue. Having people argue and push each other with their disagreements. Just leave each other alone. Be patient with one another and just dont be an asshole, it doesnt cost you anything to be kind

Honestly, In my personal opinion, TT in Pony Town is honestly stupid. 1: How do you even get uncomfortable by someone booping you or going through you in a pixel pony game? I don't think that's how that works. Sure if its IRL or VR, That's completely fine. But a pony game? 2: It makes Pony Town so hard to play when there's so many people with TT, Yes i know you can still talk to them and stuff, but sometimes they will literally complain if your even 2 blocks away from them. It just doesn't make sense. 3: Their not touching you in general, booping or kissing or sneezing and stuff like that is not actual touch. I know i said this in number 1, but dude. 4: Most of the time I just see people with TT, just going near people in general. 5: Every little thing that you do around them, they always have something to complain about. Even if your not 'touching' them, they'll find a way to complain since your talking to them. I don't see a 'DNI' in your name? 6: It's mocking people with a actual phobia, Haphephobia, which stated in the video, its a actual fear of being touched. And people are now using it in virtual games as a 'quirk' or 'trend' or stuff like that. That shits not funny man. It's just disgusting. REMINDER: If you have TT, Sure, Whatever, but seriously. If your faking to have TT, That's absolutely disgusting at the fact that you even would have the BALLS to do that. But please, if you actually do have TT, Keep in mind to stay away from them, and hide them. Don't waste your time arguing with them. It'll just make the problem worse. Thank you.

Hello, i hope its fine that i talk about my experience with people who have TT/TD and things related to it. so i play ponytown less and less just because of this. I had told people with the TT/TD tags to take breaks or hide the people who touch them when they are getting triggered. most of which said No.. in the past i even used to protect people with the TT/TD tags. i protected my friends. but nowerdays i just really get tired when seeing anyone with the tags near spawn or crowded areas. I try to avoid them. i try to avoid them, avoiding to trigger them. i look at spawn for the farest place away from them. i have gotten death threats, gotten told that they're is gonna do my mom. got called many bad names.. and even seen my friends and people i talked with got the same treatment. i been on ponytown since 2019. and until now i have only seen people with TT or TD in 2021. i only say that if you get triggered over booping, please step away from the game for atleast an day or hour. and then come back. i personally have a very bad experience with these people. but i still try to please them by staying away. i avoid hiding them if they dont do anything. but i am considering hiding them all just so i can play in peace and not worry so much and not live in fear because i hate getting yelled at... also i respect your opinions on this and i hope what i talked about makes sense! :D

I'm autistic and an SA survivor so the combination has me pretty fucked up when it comes to being touched. I have worked on my issues enough that I can have contact with people that I trust but there are limits and I struggle with intimacy which has been the downfall of many past relationships sadly. Sometimes if someone is constantly prodding at me or trying to nuzzle or cuddle up it can be extremely uncomfortable as I do struggle with paranoia as well. My brain goes to the worst-case scenario, and I assume they want to hurt me. But you will never see me run around with TT in my name. I feel like this entire TT issue has only made asking for space worse as people might assume and berate you just for asking for space anymore these days. I agree that kindness needs to be shown on both sides. These days I simply hide players if they are bothering me, but I miss being able to establish a boundary and people simply respecting it.

It's just like, this is a 2-d game don't act like this, and I usually find out the people who do this just want more interaction by acting out when being touched in a pony game made out of the most visible pixels which should very, and I mean VERY easily to serperate life from game. It's always fun, avatar, roleplaying games that this happens and it makes me so angry.

I'll respect TT any time and apologize whenever I accidentally touch them CD for me just makes me confused on where I am, I want either both my characters eyes showing or my character completely covered, it's not severe and it's only under certain situations like stress or exhaustion and such. Zooming out can make me dizzy if I lose track of my character as well so I prefer to have my fov fairly close to my character

I don't have TT so i told them no and they said oh. a few minutes later after following the TT hate group i asked them why they were picking on a person with TT. they asked me if i had TT i said no and they said well why don't you join us. I answer them with the words because you guys pick on people with TT people with TT are still people behind that screen. Then i hid them and became friends with the person who had TT after finding them again. Long story short, don't pick on people with TT.

Some minor corrections, I also get panic attacks from being touched, I have PTSD, it has to do with sexual abuse but also other abuse related experiences, and I think I speak for some others too, saying that it is rather trust based, and it does not have to be the phobia, the symptom can exist on its own, I've eventually started to be able to be touched by the people I'm very close to like my husband and my best friend, I can even hug my best friend now, but if a stranger were to touch me or even get too close or look at me too long I would start to panic, it's pretty severe and occasionally in games which either look very realistic or require a lot of attention I can get uncomfortable seeing characters close to mine, especially in a game like Ponytown where I make a character that is a representation of myself even if it's not like real me it's still something my brain made and I associate it with me, I can deal with it but it can make me feel uncomfortable, that all said though I think this is a trend, the way these people talk about it makes me think they just want to create a divide between fandoms or what, and they're taking away attention from people that actually have TT.

JUST PUT DNI IN UR NAME!!! editing to add on: it honestly hurts when i see these ppl who claim to have TT sit in the middle of the fucking road or something and then rage when someone walks past them. its pretty much mocking ppl who actually have it. dissapointing

I can understand TT, not the touch phobia, but why some people would be touch triggered on a game. I get panic attacks on any game my character can die in. I’ve never experienced panic attacks with very slow going, easy games like Pony.Town🐴, but I get it. I have PTSD and could also see that if I was approached in a video game and didn’t give consent, and then got a traumatic memory from it, I probably wouldn’t want to be touched in any game because it would trigger that trauma. The difference is, if the person has access to help, then they shouldn’t need to put they are TT. They should be able to relieve the trauma and get better. Those who don’t know they have trauma and are figuring it out make sense to put they have TT.

But either way everyone please respect TT/TD you might not believe it but I'm pretty sure Youven been taught to respect others no matter what. Anyway, great video and good opinion!

In game, I'm perfectly fine with touching and beyond that, cuz ig I'm able to detach myself from reality (ie. my own body). In real life tho, ya I do pay attention to where my back in facing, like if I'm in a restaurant my back needs to be facing the wall or away from the main open area. When entering a building with a group of people, I'd usually prefer to be the last to enter, at the very back of the group. Don't take hugs from strangers or even most acquaintances. Like, you'll KNOW if you're on good terms with me and a good friend of mine if I accept hugs from you. Ya gotta earn it. XD

I can understand where these people are coming from, since it's awkward or uncomfortable having someone random go up to you and boop you, or talk to you, so I assumed *some* people were saying they had TT to simply avoid those interactions. Though, doing such would damage actual people with disorders in the process. PT has plenty of areas that are hardly touched (being the far left and lower areas of the map), so it's easy to go there if you want to avoid crowds. If not, being on a party island with only you and select friends should also work fine. (this bit might get me cancelled /hj) The reason I assumed it "wasn't entirely real" was because so many people claim to have it. Unless PT attracts people with disorders, I felt it's unlikely so many people would genuinely have the disorders people claim to have. (I understand this doesn't mean ALL people claiming to have it are fake, it's just a bit too easy to find people with disorders on PT.) Not to mention, it felt like people being more open with the disorders they have came up around the same time people on tiktok claimed to have disorders, and made them seem cute and funny.

If someone puts themself into a situation where you are guranteed to be touched then I am going to assume they are faking it because TT is so horrible to experience, why ever purposely cause yourself to be triggered? Logically if they do that then they are one of the fakers doing it to give TT a bad name or to get attention. People with actual TT will avoid other players and often stand in the distance.

People stay at spawn and claim to have PT TT then expect others not to touch them, even if it's on accident.

my perspective as someone who has a TT: i have dealt with past trauma involving touch. i wont get into that cuz it is triggering but i will say is was sexual trauma. anyways, being touched in game reminds me of that past trauma which causes flashbacks and can cause a panic attack if the person wont listen to me when i tell them to stop. i do have a TT irl and have asked all my family and friends to refrain from touching me, as again it causes discomfort and or panic attacks. about the getting help thing, it is not easy to get a therapist or any type of help. what i do when i encounter touch in game is move away, if they follow and continue with touching i will tell them to stop. from there they will either stop or continue. depending on if its a troll or not i will then hide them. hiding ppl doesn't always solve the problem tho and here is why: the thought and idea that that person is still there and is possibly touching me is very uncomfy. the other reason is if it is a troll, hiding them is exactly what they want. fueling their ego can cause them to go on and harass other ppl which is not what id like. a good way to solve both of those issues is to distract myself to forget i hid someone in the first place, and or hide behind a close friend or a void pony and then tab out until the troll gives up. i hope this helped ppl to understand. not everyone is the same and things might be different for others but this is how things are for me

no. i dont agree with it at all. its turning something that ruins alot of people's lives into a quirky little trend on a pixel pony game. "touch triggers" can only exist on virtual reality games and im guessing fps games? not sure, im not an expert on the subject but i did certainly have an interesting read about the whole matter on a google document i found. this touch trigger trend really reminds me of the people on tiktok faking mental illness. these people on pony town who have touch triggers and make exceptions for certain people are the actual worst, people with real and genuine haphephobia cannot pick and choose who they can or cannot touch. they cant even physically interact with people they love, such as family, friends and partners, and i imagine its horribly mentally painful to have to live like that. to see people take this and turn it into a cute quirk on a horse game is so utterly and genuinely disrespectful to people who actually have to live like this in the real world. i guarantee you almost all of these people with a touch trigger is fine in real life, just like those fakers on tiktok. people with haphephobia have spoken up on the matter MULTIPLE times on how they find touch triggers disrespectful, which provides genuineness to all of my points. whats more is that the touch trigger community is so fucking toxic, people being called slurs and receiving death threats if they voice their opinion against it. it shouldnt have to be a matter of "just leave the people with touch triggers alone" it should just be "have some common fucking decency and dont turn an actual problem into a cute quirky trend on a pony chatroom game" my main source is this document: docs.google.com/document/d/1iU61v33NwdEuWsUpjO6W4_1VCardpVIncSe796kREAA/edit i do not know who wrote it, but i stand by the people actually suffering from haphephobia in that this just needs to stop

As someone that has tt I’m comfortable with my friends touching me, irl and in game or when it goes to strangers I don’t like speaking to them it makes me feel uncomfortable same goes to strangers and I can’t tell them it bothers me to touch me because I’m afraid of speaking publicly I like to vent to my friends when it goes to people touching me and asking if they can speak for me. And even in restaurants I can’t speak, I ask for family members to speak for me. And when any member, even like some new family member I see, I get uncomfortable when they speak to me or touch me I get panic attacks, I have someone who comforts me and makes me feel safe but I do need help with this issue

if I see someone with TT or TD in their name I won’t touch them, because they could be actually uncomfortable with someone doing that, but I don’t like to interact with them much because they could be using it in a problematic way

I think TD people are kinda annoying. They always sittin in public places and saying "DON'T TOUCH ME". Also its really ruins the rp. If TT/TD people doing rp,they always like "NUUU DON'T TOUCH ME CUZ TT"

They shouldn't be roleplaying or doing things that would lead to getting touched or surroubded by many people. In my opinion if they are doing that, then crying that they are getting touched, they're probably faking it because no real person with TT or TD will put themselves in situations like that

Thing is people usually don't respect triggers, and that usually causes arguments in both sides. If people are EXTREMELY bothered by a person who has TT, there's a button called "Hide players for 24 hours/permanent" Same goes to the other side too, if there's a person going off about it, hide them

this video was uploaded a while ago and while i don't understand touch /triggers/ in the game, i understand touch /discomforts/. i have one myself, and while it makes me uncomfortable to have someone so close to me or boop me i'm not going to have a panic attack or anxiety attack over it; i can recognise that it's not real.

Do people need attention this bad? If you get triggered over being touched in a 2d pony game you should probably just go outside for once.

@@ellyhaerim i actually relate to this situation, i myself hate alcohol and anyone who drinks it, but do i go into a bar and scream at them for nothing? no, i don't because really its their decision, i may not agree with it but i'm really not entitled to scream or shout at them i'll just quietly respect their decision and move on from it kinda the same with tt/td, i don't really care, its whatever, but if you're faking it for attention then you're an ass because all you want is people to give you attention and you want to be the centre of it all when in reality you are an ass for faking it why is everything about attention nowadays? why do people seek validation in the most fucked up ways?

There wasn't a lot about TD in this video, so I have to ask, is TD basically the same thing as TT or is it like social anxiety as mentioned earlier in this video? Like, I have TD in my name because I feel uncomfortable being touched, but I don't have TT because it's not a trigger. Idk. Just curiosity I suppose. Feel free to correct me if I'm being dumb and don't know it or if I'm wrong

TD is touch discomfort so its basically the same thing except its more discomforting than it is a panic attack waiting to happen. Also you shouldn't put TT or TD in your name if you don't know what it means

I have TD in my name. [Touch Discomfort] Not to mock people, but because I get intense anxiety when people get too close. I am autistic. And I see my character in games as me, as me in that game. And I dislike being touched by people who I don’t know. I will not yell and scream at people. They can walk past or even through me, I dont get upset. What makes me extremely uncomfortable is when people come and sit right next to me, and boop me. I do not experience phantom touch as it is not possible to as explained in the video. I don’t like being touched, and experience video games as imagining myself inside the game. In PT I sit off to the side, and behind trees, with my friend who experiences ‘TT’. They get genuinely panicked, I’ve seen their panic attacks when stuff like that happens. Some people target people with ‘TT or TD’ which hurts. It is not a trigger for me, but a discomfort, as stated at the start - “TD” [Touch Discomfort] Edit: if someone tries to sit next to me or touch me, I usually move or say something along the lines of ‘please stop’. If they don’t, I move, if they follow, I tell them again to stop, and hide them if they continue.

I have TD but Ik when I go to the main inland I’ll be touched by others by accident so i go by fences, but I also do cuddle with friends ( if I have one with me ) for when I’m in a party or on the main inland, but most of the time I don’t so I go by places where not many people are like fences or in a space where there’s not that many people ( if you have a opinion on what I’m saying I’ll gladly read it :D )
