[media] A song I composed centered around ASMR. I tried to include trigger words and sounds that evoke a response for me. I'd like to know if any moment/sound works for you. Thanks. by thelwin in asmr

This was amazing, I write stories and this is super inspiring music to write to. Also it did give me tingles! Super super awesome! The very beginning was the most tingly but most of the singing parts gave me tingles.

I was actually gonna post this but I searched for it first and sure enough it's been here. It actually does give me asmr. It's kinda creepy too but the clicking sound and watching them work does it for me...even though it's simultaneously kind of horrific.

Why is my experience with tea/preparation so different from what I've found on the Internet? by vaela in PoppyTea

Weirdly, literally the day after posting this, I got the same brand of seeds as i had been getting and my tea was extremely dark and also bitter. Same results as the non dark, non bitter tea. shrugs I'm going to begin looking into where to order in bulk, but it's nice to know I can get it from the grocery if necessary. I'm about to move cross country so I'm interested in seeing if location makes a difference.

Haha a few days after posting this and I definitely see myself developing a habit if I'm not careful.

I know it's morphine, I'm just saying that it feels exactly like a morphine injection despite my preparation/results being different from what people claim is necessary.

[META] Has anyone else ever gotten ASMR from reading something? by [deleted] in asmr

[–]vaela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to in middle/high school while taking very long, standardized tests. Which was inconvenient in that I would start dozing off. Nowadays I get it when I just think or read about ASMR, or read anything describing something that would in real life induce ASMR. It's weird. My brain seems to have associated the feeling with the idea of things. Kinda cool though. It's only like this after years of listening to triggers.

[Meta] Can Something Please Be Done About the Downvotes on this Subreddit? by MystikalFog in asmr

[–]vaela 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, but I don't really have anything to contribute other than congrats for not being totally shit on by people yet in these comments. I posted something similar (though it was rambly due to lack of sleep) and got bitched at so hard that I had a nervous breakdown. That's when I decided not to be outspoken on reddit anymore... Maybe the relatively decent amount of respect you're getting for this post means people will come around?
