I know its a weird question, but is there a way to actually not be afraid of tickling? Some of my friends have just no reaction when i tickle them. I wanna know the answer because im always a victim of tickling. LOL.

I don't want to be immune, but from what I hear some people can "turn it on or off" just by concentrating.

I still feel ticklish when i tickle myself in certain spots, so yeah that's not completely true about the not feeling ticklish if you tickle yourself. But it does feel like 15x worse when someone else does it, i wish there was a way to immune yourself, i dont think there is other than just mind over matter!! lol

Grow up with 4 older brothers.
You give up laughing when tickled as a defense mechanism.

Notice how whenever you tickle yourself, you never actually feel ticklish? This is due to your body's knowledge of the act before it takes place, so it anticipates it. Others tickling you is oftentimes unexpected.

if you spend your lifetime searching for the answer to this question, i promise you i will then buy all of your books. I myself was thinking about acupuncture or hypnosis- or perhaps a divorce :-)
