It's a weird uncomfortable mild pain in my vagina when someone describes or I witness someone's sharp pain...like a bone break or hard hit to the body. It sucks. It sounds funny, but it's really not.

I felt completely foolish admitting it and only did so because one other woman mentioned it before me. Here I am 7 years later googling the same thing when I come across my own post! At first I thought OMG how in the world could someone have had the same exact experience I had?!! (counter jump - spread eagle)… BUT… now I understand it wasn’t the accident at all! It’s like a freakin ubiquitous curse or epidemic that nobody ever talks about! Root chakra grounding should be taught in kindergarten because if this many people are experiencing the same thing, just imagine how many more people there are out there walking around unbalanced and not knowing what it is or what to do or who to talk to! Seven years later and this is the only place I have found any info on this issue! I’ve dabbled in chakra work but now I’m going to focus wholeheartedly on my root chakra specifically to see if this is without a doubt, the issue, and hopefully it won’t take me 7 more years to get back here and relay my findings! Good luck out there and thank you to everyone who posted after me! Finally a plan!

I've got the vagina shock thing too, even with cartoons. It's falls or hits, but I also can't bear the image or thought of people running on gravel, for example. <br /><br />It started after a series of deaths and illnesses in my family in 2005. After the dust had settled, I went through a phase of about a year where I wept and wept. Anything beautiful or sad would set it off, especially art. I feel like that time opened me up. I feel like my personality got wiped out during that time, and some parts of me are altered, like this reaction. It makes me wonder what else is open in me, and how or whether to close it. I am so happy to find out that it happens to other people, even non-vagina-havers, and not always in the vagina! That is definitely news I can use.

I thought I was crazy! The sensation ‘mocks’ pleasure in the vaginal area, (specifically in the clitoral area) and it makes me cringe every time. It happens every single time I see someone or something get hurt. Person, animal, insect, it doesn’t matter. It happens every time and I just want to know how to make it STOP! Now that I know I’m not the only one, I can breathe a little easier and stop thinking there’s something wrong with me. But I really just want it to go away, that nasty little twinge!

I am experiencing groin and pelvic pain that’s got me quite uncomfortable 😣. This has happened to me all my life. During The Walking Dead craze, I was the only one in my house who couldn’t bear to watch it. I was embarrassed to ever ask any doctor about it, though. I worried that my oldest son was having schizophrenia symptoms at 5 yrs of age because he would come home from Kindergarten and tell me that during his music class his teacher would play Mozart or Beethoven and he would see the notes and all the beautiful colors dancing overhead! I had a woman stop us in a bookstore and tell me that he had the most beautifully unusual aura she’d ever seen! I thought she was nuts and couldn’t get away fast enough. As it turns out, my son is a gifted musician that plays professionally. He plays 12 different instruments and all by ear!The Hummy Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03991736873781694974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21605329.post-77892528075405682752022-01-04T19:26:32.815-08:002022-01-04T19:26:32.815-08:00OMG.

I experienced often as a kid and teen. I can't believe I found other people just like me! This is something that I have mostly kept to myself, obviously, because who talks about their vagina to others. But a google search of "pain in vagina when seeing others get hurt" has brought me to you! I love the internet... I really do.

It happens if I see real injuries/ falls etc., or on TV, actual injuries and acted out. It also happens when someone I love describes an injury they sustained themselves. <br />It's incredibly distracting and annoying, but yeah, just for a second or two.<br />I've told people and get the blank stare, haha!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21605329.post-20280923699980228352021-05-25T20:52:37.370-07:002021-05-25T20:52:37.370-07:00Wow!

Still don't know what it's called. It doesn't really fit the description of either synaesthesia or empaths. Not mirroring either, it doesn't occur in the same part of the body as the other person's pain. I am just fascinated by the fact that some of you feel it in the arms or legs or torso while many feel it in the groin. Will follow the thread to see if anyone knows what it's actually called.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01903813420152022576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21605329.post-68943728599461543952021-04-29T11:16:04.183-07:002021-04-29T11:16:04.183-07:00I just this website and ive been experiencing some...I just this website and ive been experiencing some very harsh and scary happenings.

I can control it to some degree, by desensitisation (I worked as a vet tech for many years, so I had to learn there). Unlike most of the other people on here, mine originates just below my sternum and above my stomach then radiates out into my chest and arms. It only last a few seconds and it's uncomfortable, sometimes painful for a brief second...kind of like an electric shock. I'm a biologist and I imagine it has to be associated with a surge of adrenaline or similar? It has also happened to me since I was a child and I just thought everyone had it...until I discovered they didn't. I'm glad to find others who experience something similar. I also see numbers vertically and when I picture the year Jan through May are horizontal next to one another and then June to December is vertical underneath April and May (so almost an off centred T shape). I didn't think any of this was similar to the experiences of other synesthesia, like hearing colours or tasting numbers etc. Could you explain how they have a similar cause? Very glad for any information. 24Trillian42noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21605329.post-74016773490564585712021-01-08T19:35:45.450-08:002021-01-08T19:35:45.450-08:00Omg I get this too.
