Next up for discussion for all you sensory issues people. The dentist. Reasons why I hate the dentist. 1. I hate the sound for them scratching the teeth. 2. I hate the water it hurts my teeth it's rlly cold. 3. The darned picture thing triggers my gag reflex. 4. You have to keep your mouth open for ten years. 5. The stuff they put on your teeth has awful texture. 6. They poke my gums with stuff that makes then irk cause of sensory stuff. 

Does anyone else deal with this at the dentist? Or am I just crazy?

YES THATS EXACTLY IT

Like, it doesn't hurt when they scrape my teeth, but the sound and feel of it are their own kind of pain

I know. Then they think your hurting physically. Like no. I'm hurting..... sensationally.

I  go kind of dissociated during medical procedures and view them with this odd kind of detached scientific curiousity. Like, the same kind of detached curiousity where I could calmly cut someone's finger off and take notes on their reaction; how fast they bled out and what symptoms occurred during the process and such.
It's such a useful state, even if I can't control when it triggers. I can be the perfect little subject and do everything exactly as I'm supposed to (autism rule-following go YAY) and also view it as if it's happening to someone else and not fly into sensory rage or overload.

So like, no it doesn't 'bother' me, but that's prolly cuz I'm actually a serial killer who goes into a dissociative state to murder everybody. Woo!

...and then after I've left and gone home and relaxed, the different feel of my mouth drives me NUTS and I can't stopping running my tongue over the textured spots and BLAH and I hate it, so I can at least sympathize there.

I mean, I dunno that I'd count myself as "normal", so using me as a data point does not make it not weird lol. But yeah, it's a thing!

I guess I've been an adult since childhood then! That's been my reaction for as long as I remember.

Don't know that one, unfortunately. We watch basically no TV, so I know almost nothing about tv shows. The most recent tv show I've watched is Dr Who, and I'm currently still only in Series 5. Super behind haha.
