If you could have one heightened sense, what would it be?

I have a warped sense of smell and taste from chronic non food allergies since birth. So I choose to heighten my sense of smell/taste.

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

      I fully, 100 percent agree with you on thos one.

      Unless you got like a serious issue with any of your senses, more sexual pleasure is always gonna be the top pick.

    I would like a heightened sense of sight, as well as heightened psychic senses.

    I have a pretty poor sense of taste/smell, so I guess I’d heighten it to normal levels if I had to, not to superhuman or even strong/above average. But, I’d rather keep things the way they are, suddenly being given a boost seems like it’d be jarring and overstimulating.

    Heightened senses have downsides I image. Hypersensitivity to environmental input for example, it kinda sucks. I’m autistic and already visual and auditory stimuli like flashing or bright lights and too many noises occurring at once are just... ugh I can’t describe it properly, it’s awful. Like being attacked outside and in, fingers tearing behind your face trying to escape, you concurrently feel exhausted and energized to the point of exploding. Occasionally I feel physically sick with nausea, fever, or a headache from it.

    Sound would backfire really fast. So would smell. Sight would be hard to get used but possibly nice. Touch could go wrong fast. Taste is also pretty useless. All of them come with problems I wouldn't want to deal with

    • Trust me, i have a lack of smell, and sometimes all I smell are the most foul things. I already deal with that, so extra smell power on the good things would be nice

        My mom has been experiencing something similar. I wonder what causes it?

    Vision too
    Eagle mooooode
    with hearing and the other things I already have problems, when you’re with people the whole day and they make sounds and their smells and ugh I just can’t take it
    It’s like everything at all
    Seeing is not like that, it doesn’t annoy you mentally and just think how cool it would be
    All of the other senses would really make you crazy, I’m kinda hypersensitive to everything and even the touching of my clothes on my skin sometimes makes my angry as shit and wind too
    When you’re not more sensitive to light then too
    The other things would be fine, if it lets u cold emotionally
