Fingernails & Cloth
I have a strange condition that I am unsure of what it is.
It started a couple years back when I cringed at the sound of my, or anyone else's fingernails, on any type of clothing. To explain it in more simple terms-- It's like fingernails on a chalk board for me. Since then it's progressivly gotten worse. Today, I cannot carry a cloth bag on my left shoulder and carry my schoo binder in the same arm for the fear of the two coming in contact.
While walking down the hall I make it a point to not run into anyone for the fear that their binders will touch my clothes and make the sound. In fact, it isn't much of a sound-- it's the feel.
For example-- My friend could PRETEND to stractch her fingernails on her jeans and I would cover my ears and make noises so I couldn't hear it. Even if I CAN'T hear it-- I can imagine it.
I'm completely unsure of what this could be-- it's getting so much worse and the only thing that makes this feel better is if I scratch something smooth-- a desk in school or metal, or my palm.
Any Ideas?

I'm like that too, but not as bad. I cannot stand the feel of my head rubbing against the back of car seats. Not the leather kind, but the carpet kind. It gives me the chills.
Your situation however, is interfering with your life. If you can't take it anymore, go to a psychologist, you could be obsessive (not obsessive compulsive like the person under me said...compulsions are the urge to do something, so you only have the obsessive part).

Sorry to break it to yah, but it sounds like a case of OCD--Obsessive Compulive Disorder. Go see your doctor. It doesnt matter if you're aren't 'obsessed' its still could be OCD, i think i'd know, obviously you needed advice and my dad's a doctor and he told me its OCD, but whatever dont listen to me.
