#skinhunger — Public Fediverse posts

The skin hunger is hitting hard lately. -- not as bad as it can be at its worst, but still worse than usual. It's been 5 years and 8.5 months without human touch for me, plus it's cold and dark, plus stress levels are a bit high, so I feel like that's fair.

It's too late at night for a bath, so I'll curl up in a ball under a weighted blanket and breathe through it. There's not much else I can do.

Solidarity to those who know.

I have a latex body pillow (long sausage-style) that I cling to like a traumatized baby koala at night.

In terms of solo isolation and skin hunger, I'm wondering if I should upgrade to one of the U-shaped body pillows marketed to pregnant women.

Questions for people who are NOT pregnant who've tried U-shaped body pillows: How do you like it? How does it affect your sleep?

Do Not Want replies about pregnancy, other styles of pillow, or no XP conjecture. 1/n

Heute schon gekuschelt? Körperliche Nähe steigert unser Wohlbefinden, weil in unserem Körper Glückshormone freigesetzt werden. Wird uns das über lange Zeit entzogen, tut uns das nicht gut. Das Phänomen nennt sich „Skin Hunger“. Catrin spricht mit Stefan, der von „Skin Hunger“ betroffen ist und erfährt, wie er gelernt hat, damit umzugehen.
