because when you are expecting it you sub-conciously deaden the sensation.

I find that I can obtain similar sensations to being tickled by doing it myself. When someone else tickles you, you brain does not know where the next sensation will come from and so the element of surprise is the difference between tickling yourself and someone else doing it.

Being tickled or feeling ticklish is actually a panic response by the body - even though you laugh! As you try tickle yourself, the body is aware of your actions - therefore. is not panicked!

because it tickles because you are surprised. so if you try to tickle yourself, you know its coming and react to it.
the only place you can tickle yourself is the roof of your mouth.
go on, give it a try!

It is practically impossible to tickle yourself but if you put your finger (any) in your mouth you will find a very ticklish spot!I hope that helps you!

I can. Am I weird ? But it has to be the very soft type of tickle not the rough type.

Because you anticipate the move which blocks the reaction.
