to think ASMR is a load of rubbish.

[Latentprint]

It doesn't do anything for me.
All that silly whispering, from left to right. I don't get it.
Am I being an old grump?

Or is it simply a case of finding the right one?

ASMR?? Wtf is it?

What Janet said. ..

Not everybody gets tingles from it. If you don't get tingles from gentlewhispering on YouTube it's safe to say you're impervious.

It's still great just to relax with though. Personally I do get tingles but I hate the ear to ear stuff and tapping noises.

Gives me tingles

What is it?

Google it.

Never heard of though OP. Until I googled it obviously.

I think it's meant to be quite subjective, works for some people and not for others so if popular videos haven't worked on you then it's likely it just wouldn't work for you at all. I used to get it when I was a child but don't now.

No definition yet? I call bullshit!!!

I'm jealous. I'm not getting the tingles

its very subjective.. i can't STAND it, its like nails on a chalk board to me.

I have friends who love it though, but they know not to send me the videos!

I get ASMR but also have misophonia, so am really picky about which videos I listen Some give me the full-on intense head tingles, some knock me out into proper deep sleep, and some trigger my misophonic rage. So maybe it is a case of finding the 'right one'

Just googled it. It is bullshit!

ought to add, i have Misophonia, so it's hardly surprising i want to smack the ASMR people

If it involves whispering i know for sure i'll hate it.

It works for me. Well, some of it does, other elements don't do much for me.

I find lots of it super relaxing and it helps me get to sleep.

It's not bullshit, it's something that some people like and others don't. Like lots of things. What's your problem?

Jane, its not bullshit, its supposed to work along the same lines as white noise, there's certain noises and tones that give people pleasant sensation.

What does asmr strange for please?

I've no problem. If ppl think it works for them, ok. But it is still bullshit!

Huh? It works for me. Sometimes it's the only way I can manage to fall asleep at night.

ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and it refers to a phenomenon which is very difficult to explain to those that do not experience it. It is usually experienced through a relaxing tingling in the scalp and the back of the neck and can extend into the rest of the body.

There are about a million ASMR examples on Youtube.

I only heard about it the other day.
Apparently it's been a 'thing' for a while

Autonomous sensory meridian response

A bit woo-woo, if you're into that!

Wow just thinking about this make me think that I have experienced this.
Can you get it from certain peoples voices.
Sometimes I find a certain persons voice relaxing and I want them to carry on talking.

I'm assuming like most things, there are really good ones and not so good ones.
Which ones are good?

Which ones are 100% guaranteed to give me the 'tingles'?

Or am I better of using something else for that?
