What is acute senses?

Answer 1

Acute senses apply mainly to the heightened perception and receptivity of the five senses + , sometimes can manifest as Multiple Chemical Sensitivity. A person who is acute in senses at strongest point also may experience extra sensory perception phenomenom. The senses are hyperactive resulting from arguable causes. One is the effects of chronic stress, and post traumatic stress which can create a loop of fight/flight survival response relating to many different scenarios and thus the human has senses of an animal in the wild relying on what most humans do not need to survive. Unfortunately for the most part it is intolerable for a human to develop acute senses as their systems are not used to it and the smell of solvents or even the chemicals found in perfumes and laundry products can trigger off a whole myriad of physical and neurological symptoms earning todays becoming popular label of MCS - Multiple Chemical Sensitivity. Lights can appear to bright and other visuals intolerable, certain foods are intolerable too depending on the individual response and gluten is usually a culprit found in the digestive and immune response. Pain too can be present physically as the brains pain receptors are also in hyper arousal. The sensitivity applies throughout the system and the human brain is very complex and not fully understood just as extra sensory perception isn't.
