AIBU to turn into a tortoise

I need a shell. Since I started menopause early I can't keep with being touched or breathed on. My son is very average qnd is five years old qnd very wriggly. He likes to put his feet on me and hug but I can't stand his little scratch toe nails or having anything on me. It gives me a hot flash. He is also very hugely. My poor husband tried to snuggle up at night qnd I can't stand breath on me. I'm going mad and think I HRT. I don't feel down or anything but every sense just get jarred by close proximity....anyone relate?

Sorry he is very huggy!
I give him lots of affection putting my own tactile defensiveness aside.Smile

Thought the average comment was a bit harsh 😏. I generally really dislike anyone invading my space these days, I'm too hot to be hugged or breathed on. You're not going mad.

By average I mean no additional or sensory needs or behavioural needs. God that does sound like I don't love him doesn't it a very poor choice of words. I love him more than anything!
