Are you ticklish when you’re upset?

[Doriansenigma]

I was never one of those people you could cheer up through tickling. Before I was married, If someone says something to me that spoils the mood in a tickle session my nerves pretty much shut down. If I’m angry, sad, stressed out, overstimulated tickling won’t work on me at all. I’m curious about other peoples experience with this. Are some of you ticklish even when you’re upset and maybe you don’t want to be? Has it ruined a session or even a playful interaction? Have you gotten mad at someone for tickling you when you’re upset? Does it still make you laugh ir are you like me and shut down completely?

If I'm feeling angry or am under a lot of certain types of active stress, it substantially reduces my interest in tickling and my level of ticklishness. Though, if I'm just nervous, or carrying a lot of tension from more latent anxiety or a resolved stressful situation, I'll usually be much more ticklish than normal. Sad type feelings can go either way, depending upon the severity and details. Other than those broad categorizations, it's very complicated and unpredictable. But mood definitely affects my ticklishness.

I think it'll depend on the situation.

Good point. In my adult life I’ve only ever been tickled by a woman that I was attracted to in the moment of a date so that’s all I’ve known thus far. Knowing myself I think if family tried to tickle me while I’m upset I wouldn’t react but if a woman I liked did it with the intention to cheer my up that might soften my mood~

I can allow myself to be ticklish up to a level of like a 1.5 on a scale of 10. If I’m angry or depressed. I’m in the negatives.

Simple answer: no.

I wish I could turn off the old ticklish button when I was mad, but unfortunately I’m just too ticklish.
