The tactile empathy is insane. I've had experiences where it actually HURTS.

I am autism and I have trouble worrying about myself because I keep on worrying and getting angry about what's going on in Europe and
the USA as well as my own country Australia..
there's so much injustice I keep hearing about

this is why I can never go to stand up comedy shows. I will feel embarrassed like it's happening to me if the audience doesn't laugh.

Peace 🇦🇺 :
I have ADHD and I used to not be able to watch tv shows with a lot of embarrassing or violent scenes, as I would literally feel it in my body and it was really distressing! Then in my late 20’s that mostly stopped for some reason and I can’t watch all that stuff now.

If I'm not mistaken, the Tactile Empathy you mentioned is a form of synesthesia.

its why I hate awkward moments especially in comedy shows or movies. Little Miss Sunshine makes me physically recoil and scratch at my skin.

I am occasionally capable of mimicry. Where I can imitate a complex or skilled movement after seeing it, but only once.
