      Yeah it’s not for fun, or to intentionally annoy others in public spaces. Those loud sneezes are just the default for how it comes out for some people. Personally I always try to sneeze directly into my elbow, both for sanitary reasons, and also to be less loud in public.

      I generally get zero warning for sneezes, and they are always powerful; I’m usually dazed for a good 5-10 seconds after, and trying to hold it back can cause full body aching and pain (or it might hurt even if i don’t, sometimes). 😕

      Id love it if my entire head wasn’t dysfunctional. Deviated septum, tinnitus, photosensitivity + astigmatism, severe year round allergies/excessive mucus production, giant head too big for most hats. At least my teeth aren’t bad i guess?
