Temperature Sensitivity

Is anyone else super sensitive to temperatures, in particular the cold? Even though today is a mild day I'm in a jumper and sitting in front of the fan heater shivering and painfully cold (not ideal with the prices of gas and electric) and just can't warm up. Could this be autism related or something else entirely? 

Sorry - only newly diagnosed so still so still learning what is and isn't related?

  • Yes I'm sensitive to temperature but to the heat. I'm absolutely fine with the cold, I wish it was cold all year round personally. The last couple of years the summers have been very hot and each time 3 years in a row I've been hospitalised because of the heat. Thin layers and drinking water aren't enough to cool me and I overheat and get sick.
