Your opinion on ASMR?

[CristianOff]

ASMR or Autonomous sensory meridian response is an euphoric feeling you get when you listen to certain sounds. It gives you "tingles"
and makes you relax. Some people get tingles, some people don't.

It's a new phenomenon and it's still taboo. People who watch ASMR are seen as weird and I will give you examples why.
ASMR videos are usually watched before going to sleep.


NOTICE: To experience ASMR you must use earphones / headphones

Examples One

ASMR videos without voice, usually following one pattern repeated all over the video. This ice cream ASMR for example

Examples Two

ASMR videos without voice, using multiple objects and may include tapping, scratching, etc.

Example Three

ASMR videos with voice, usually giving you personal attention or make sounds with the mouth, whispering, etc.

Example four

Weird ASMR videos that make everyone feel shame for watching ASMR. Include stupid stuff such as sucking microphones with passion, etc.

I've tried a real live ASMR session, and the tingles are incredible. A true meaning of braingasm.
However, when i tried the exact same thing on YT (so, same patterns, same sounds), nothing. And mind you, i'm rocking quite expensive headphones, so it's not bad audio issue

REAL LIVE ASMR? Never heard about it but I imagine it is on another level. Maybe that made you immune to YT.
By the way, I forgot to mention that sometimes a lower volume is better for YT videos and helps to achieve tingles.



Somehow I don't get tingles & I constantly get mad when I hear someone scratching, munching, etc however I use ASMR for learning on how to control
my anger.

It's like any old massage (no happy ending tho), where you're in a room, relaxing, and then they use some head massagers to massage you, make those noises in front of you, whisper in your ear, etc...

I tried to listen to the ASMR video a couple of times. It was a rather unusual experience. My head really felt better, I began to feel more relaxed. A good option to fall asleep soon.

Things like this should be properly researched before using them. The side effects could range from addiction, personality change, possession(if you know what I mean), etc
I usually listen to sounds that are totally harmless, and gentle... especially those that praises our CREATOR.
I remember falling into trance while watching a movie, and I saw something I wouldn't want to post here... I have been suspicious of worldly songs/movie since them. Though believe there are some that are safe for human consumption, most likely those produced by truely good people
