This pretty much sums it upDon't touch me, bitch!
Sometimes I draw on my hands and people grab my hands to look at it, every muscle in my body freezes up and my body goes into fight or flee mode.

Don't touch me. That means no hugs, kisses, handshakes, high fives, fist bumps, pokes, prods, slaps, jabs, pats on the back, tapping my shoulder or any other kind of physical contact from anyone at anytime. Whatever your intent be it friendly, in jest or with malice: DO NOT TOUCH ME. You have been warned.

Have you always been like this? Anything to bring this aversion on?
I never liked to be touched, but there were a few incidences that intensified my aversion. I was bullied frequently in school, my father hit me occasionally and a few years ago 4 people tried to mug me.
(I did bloody the muggers up pretty good though, maybe even cracked a few ribs! Protip: Don't try to mug someone older and stronger than you that took 7 years of martial arts training! )
Oh I see, I know someone who doesn't like to be touched but he was like that pretty much the day he was born. I'd love to beef up my muscles, I know that brains beat brawns but I'd like to think that physical power goes towards making one feel safer socially.
