I am putting this up on behalf of someone else (I was asked so nobody would get in trouble for bumping while this thread is pinned). This is going to get thread-gamey. Here is how this works. Each person will comment with a feeling. You can go as intricate as you’d like in terms of details, and see if anyone relates. People who relate must reply “+1” to the initial comment, and maybe detail it even more from their perspective or try to explain the feeling for example. Those who don’t relate must reply with “-1”.
You can look in the replies for examples. There’s another thread on another site that serves as the inspiration to this as well, if that helps to provide a basis for how this works.
You must log in or register to comment.
Paranoia that you will be accused of something you didn’t do, so you arrange your actions around it to avoid being suspicious, only to fear that will make you suspicious anyway.
+1 spending my youth on Tumblr made me exhausting to talk to because I started adding 1000 disclaimers to everything I say so I wouldn’t be accused of random unrelated thought crimes

A strong yearning for a place you can’t quite describe that is full of discoveries and beauty. Like Wanderlust.
The desire of being free of desire.
Riding fast on your bike in a rainstorm while listening to high energy and/or emotional music.

Finding that the kingdoms of heaven and hell are within me. Knowing that working with my “demons” can make them my holy guardian angels and neglecting attention to the guardian angels cause them to become more ferocious demons than they were before.

The dread ~1 hour before a social event you agreed to and wanting to not go even if you know you’ll have fun once you’re there.
+1 I went to an Arcade this week and totally felt that way because I’ve never gone to one and I was nervous about the process
Both +1 and -1 because I used to be bad about this, but now my loneliness has become more agonizing than my introverted behavior.
Not particularly liking a piece of music but being addicted to it anyways.
+1
+1 I usually learn to like it eventually but not always
+1 In general I don’t like pop music, of any era, but sometimes a single song will stick in my head and will find itself on my playlist anyway.
Pacing around aimlessly because you feel like you should be doing something, but you have no idea what.
+1 and you feel that you are forgetting something important, but you can’t remember and the deadline of said something keeps getting closer

Sorry to double post, but are there any other people with hyperthymia here?

Being able to feel and taste other people’s art.
The best way I can describe it is like, if someone has a smooth artstyle with soft highlights and there’s a lot of cyan/turquoise in that art, it’ll tend to have a soft, minty texture. Even JPEG artifacts have a particular “seasoning” to me. I feel weird having to even type this LMAO
-1 I know someone like this though
Too tired to go to bed
A feeling when you have conquered Alexithymia and every feeling feels new and exiting to discover.

-1 but I’m happy for you! I feel like I’ve always been really in touch with my emotions
Writing something before falling asleep midway through it, only to awaken shortly afterwards, and then feeling like you don’t understand how to grasp the rest of what you’re trying to write in order to finish it.
-1 This might have happened once in my life but I can’t remember

Feeling like something you see on TV reminds you of the taste of a food you know of just because of the color of said thing on TV.
