Is it normal to feel sick after rubbing my fingers over napkins

Every time Im at a resturaunt I always feel the napkins and they're really dry and they make me feel weird andi shudder, also when people bite down on ice or anything with chalkboards scraping.

Is It Normal?

  • Finally a kindred spirit!! I have had this issue for years and years, especially with cheap napkins. I use paper towels as napkins with dinner and whatnot because if I were wiping my mouth and a napkin were to tear, or worse yet shred, I get the willies big time.

    Thank you so much for posting this IIN, I would've never thought to myself, but it was so funny to run across it and know that I'm not alone....lol

  • I had a friend who couldn't touch suede. After I thought about it, I realized I didn't like to touch it either!

  • I get the same but with everything thats made of wood paper included it just makes my skin all dry and its nasty. Napkins and tissues make me feel a bit sick especially when they have all the dotts on them.. gross!

  • Like when people rub silverware on the bottom of pans? I totally get it. Can't explain it, but I know what you're going through.
