Sneeze patterns?!

[CLR1313]

So I may be totally on my own here, and just bear in mind that I am autistic, but I find sneezing completely fascinating! How everyone has a different sounding sneeze, how some people always sneeze a certain amount of times, how some people “hold their sneeze in (I think it’s called stifling), some people have loud sneezes, some quiet. It just blows my mind. I find myself paying attention to the way people sneeze and there is just something that sparks my curiosity.

so all that being said - tell me about your sneezes please? Are you a one and done? Do you have one of those “dad” sneezes? Do you do quiet sneezes? Are you loud and proud? Is it always a certain amount? Do you find sneezing satisfying (I do!) or do you find it an inconvenience?

let me know!!

Me, personally, I usually always do three at a time! Quite loud (I can’t make them quieter), and very satisfying!!

@CLR1313 a few sneezes, maybe 3-4, like a pressure release valve, and comically loud!

The sun makes me sneeze. One of my sons is the same. So did my maternal grandfather, so I assume it is hereditary (although my other children don't and nor does my mum).

I used to do little stifled ones then when I had my tonsils out I lost the ability to sneeze like that and now sneeze loudly. A very strange side effect of surgery but I just can't do little ones anymore!

I very rarely sneeze. And if I do it's mostly an almost sneeze that I have to coax out.

Unless I'm driving. Sneezing while I'm driving scares the shit out of me.

My best friend growing up used to do tiny little squeaky sneezes whenever she was in direct sunlight. I always thought it was adorably odd. Now one of my DC sneezes at the sun too! It still amuses me.

I'm another multiple sneezer - I often do 12-16 in a row. It got me told off a few times at school. I also have quite an easily irritated nose so it can happen quite often!

I sneeze in threes. Always unless I'm about to get ill.

The sneezing in 3s may just be the 3 or another with a small breathing break in between sets.

If I sneeze less than three times, I'm guaranteed to be coming down with something.

I HATE sneezing. I'm not iverly loud or in your face (ew) about it. Just really dislike how my nose feels after and if ha ingredients multiple sneezes can get a bit light headed after

I sneeze exactly like someone writing the sound of a sneeze "achoo" quite short and sharp but high pitch. I would say moderate volume but DD has described it as a mouse sneeze. I also make the sound "hiccup" when I hiccup.

I usually sneeze more than once but less than five times. I often pinch my nose slightly even though I know you aren't really supposed to.

My sneezes only ever arrive in pairs.

Youngest son always sneezes three times.

My cats sneeze much more quietly than humans do. There's no accompanying "achoo" sound.

Classic sneeze - love that!

seven - wow!!

Oh wow! Love a loud, satisfying sneeze!

I had a friend who would always sneeze as soon as she went outside!

That is a strange side effect!! Why did you used to stifle them before?

Oh goodness, that’s quite a few!! Is it a daily occurrence? Do you find them satisfying or annoying?

My sneezes are pretty dull. I wish they were explosive when I have a head cold so I could blast all the snot out.

I have a friend who has a really squeaky type sneeze, and it does my head in.

I love it when my dog sneezes. She usually does about 3 in a row, and her nose bends at a funny angle just before she sneezes.

Three loud sneezes for random sneezing. I know I'm getting poorly if I do more than three.

I always do only one but it's massive and loud, husband always does 4 in a row but smaller! I love hearing the squeaky ones

I rarely sneeze. I find it irritating and performative when people sneeze multiple times in a row.

I don't think they can help it.

I'm a two. But I never get any warning and they always surprise me. I have also been told I have a cute sneeze as I make a 'choo' noise

A friend has this and apparently her whole family sneeze three times if they come out of a tunnel into bright sunlight.

Reckon l have sneezed 20 times tonight if not more- gone through a box of tissues. Am recently finding eating crisps makes me sneeze which is bizarre.

My mum sneezes 9 times. Every single time. It goes on forever as there are quite long gaps between the first 3 and the rest. I stop saying bless you after the first 2. I agree it's fascinating

Never sneeze just the once, often 2 in a row, but I then know if there is another one coming. Loud - have been asked to sneeze quietly?! My DD sneezes gently, DH sneezes a lot (hay fever) whereas DS does the exact same sneeze as his grandfather.
I find tiny quiet sneezes fascinating 🤓

If I sneeze once or twice it's just a sneeze. 3 times and I'm getting ill!

I sneeze a lot, they are small delicate sneezes and I sneeze at least 6 times in a row, like a cat apparently! If I pluck my eyebrows or scratch my head a certain way I sneeze!
I too find sneezing very satisfying. Someone once told me a sneeze is equivalent to one eighth of an orgasm! Made the mistake of sharing that with work colleagues who now count my sneezes and I get a loud cheer if I do 8 🤣
