Summary of Sharon Heller's Too Loud, Too Bright, Too Fast, Too Tight

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Each sensory-defensive person has a unique set of sensory foes and comforts. People can show symptoms of tactile, oral, movement, visual, and auditory defensiveness or unusual sensitivities to taste or smell. #2 The skin is the boundary between self and world, and a constant source of information about our environment.
It is studded with about 5 million tiny nerve endings, or touch receptors, which are exquisitely sensitive. #3 The defensive are extremely sensitive to temperature, and will often have poor circulation due to their constantly high anxiety. They will also experience pain, and may even faint from a needle drawing blood. #4 The skin is the most sensitive area of the body, and it is primarily the light touch of hair displacement that causes the defensive response.
The skin is thinnest where there is hair.
