      Exactly. My wife and I both have sensory issues, and while they overlap, there are significant differences. Which is fortunate, because her texture issues mean she can’t fold laundry but I can, for example. My texture issues are more extended contact-related, so I can fold wool socks, but I can’t wear them. And there are limited materials I can wear.

      We both have similar auditory sensitivities, so our house is quite quiet, and we had to check neighbourhoods at multiple times when we were house shopping to make sure there were no deal-breaker environmental sounds.

      She has olfactory sensitivities, but I don’t.

      What are your sensitivities?
