Have you ever felt like if one more person grabs you, leans on you, or even breathes near you, you might explode? Congratulations, friend—you may be experiencing what we lovingly (or not-so-lovingly) call being “touched out.”

What Does It Mean to Be "Touched Out"?

Being “touched out” happens when your sensory system is overloaded, usually from constant physical contact. It's especially common for parents of young children—little ones who need your arms, lap, and presence all day long. But it’s not just about the kids. It could be the dog stepping on your foot, the clingy shirt, the partner reaching for a cuddle when you’ve got nothing left to give.

This week's blog will give you strategies to regulate yourself and still spend time with your family and partner — without physical touch.

We often find ourselves looking to our husband for more help—whether it’s with the kids, chores, or just being supportive with all of the things going on in our life—but we feel like it spirals into an argument when we bring it up. This is something many wives share with me, and I’m here to tell you that you’re not alone. But it doesn’t have to end in an argument when you’re trying to work together as a team. As moms, we juggle so much. Sometimes this leads to us holding in our frustrations until we bubble over. By holding in how we feel, we hit a breaking point that blows up into World War III just because there are dishes in the sink. Click the link to learn how to prevent spiraling into an argument and still share the household duties.
