    ASMR Experiences (Grab your headphones)

    Ok I personally love ASMR, Autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR), but I know w some get confused as to what it is so I thought I’d share one.

    Now you need a headset for this, you have my word this is no trick to blow your ear drums. Just set the volume so you can hear clearly that’s it. Start the video at 2:25 it’s probably very long if you don’t enjoy this or get anything thing out of it, but give it a chance. Close your eyes if it helps about a minute should do.



    How did it make you feel and did you experience anything in terms of tingling or relaxation?

    Did you use a head set?

    Yeah there are many different kinds of triggers but this is a very basic kind I think. Ignore the esoteric stuff just start at 2:25 clear your mind.

    Meditation is far less cringeworthy.

    It’s roughly the same thing you clear your mind and try to relax.

    You never watched Bob Ross?

    I didn't believe some of this crap until a 30 minute one actually got me off on sound alone.

    The difference is Bob Ross was amazing artist and his comments while working made the show even better.

    But this whole ASMR looks pathetic, another cashgrab especially when done by girls with tits on whole screen trying to gets as much donations as they can.

    I (probably) know the tingling sensation that's supposed to happen, but these kinds of stimuli don't invoke them in me AT ALL.
    I tried like 10 or so very different things. Brushes, clicking, breathing, stroking, tones, ... to no avail. There is just nothing there besides eventual boredom or sore nerves.
    Fair enough thanks for trying, I honestly thought this might be an easier one. As for looking mostly it’s just about listening and trying to cut yourself off from everything else which is why I said start at 2:25.

    For me it really is more about the sound and the over all focal point and the ability to cut off all else. The vibration I think has a calming effect but if that didn’t happen It really might be a hit or miss. Kind of thing. Thanks for trying.

    Maybe it’s the visual stimulation along with audio that does it for you. For me it’s either or. For example some ASMR they used brushes on the microphone some love it. I hate it

    As for it being a cash grab lol non of the ones I follow.

    This one does nothing for me but it’s for sure the same kind of thing.

    It was not really annoying. The soundscape didn't contain any of the typical sounds you hear in ASMR (e.g. smacking). But these really do nothing for me other than annoy, as if I'm sitting next to someone eating with their mouth open.

    It's interesting how some people react though.

    Yeah the lip smacking I guess as are many other types. I am more drawn to sounds of nature or bob Ross or this minus the esoteric thing lol.

    Many a night have been spent scouring Japanese online stores for high quality voice works, and the haul never disappoints.

    I really hate these and this was no different. Rather have my toes stepped on than hear this stuff.

    yeah, I remember my friend tried to get me onto ASMR stuff, none of the...unique things did anything for me.

    But give my the constant sound of heavy rain or thunderstorm, and i'll meditate the shit out of an hour lol. Apparently that isn't the same thing tho.

    Didn't just open an ̶a̶̶d̶̶h̶̶d̶ ASMR thread some time ago? What are you looking for this time that you didn't get out of the other thread?

    I guess enjoy listening to a woman smacking with a mouth full of marbles if that's your thing

    I mainly watch frivolousfox asmr. She does really good work. Here's two of my favorites of her videos
