autonomous sensory meridian response

July 25, 2010

Okay, in the list of other strange things I never realized other people

experienced is something apparently called ASMR. I was wondering if other 4S

people get this too. The best way to describe it is a very pleasurable (but not

sexual or romantic...at all) experience when someone else touches you/pays

attention to you. Like having your hair brushed, or having a teacher help you

with something, or having someone with a certain voice talk to you...it starts

as a tingly feeling in the head that spreads throughout the body, it feels like

your heart is slowing down, almost a trance state. Like a weird head/heart

orgasm, if that makes any sense.

I was reading some guy's blog about it, and he listed off some " triggers " for

this experience that included what I would call 4s triggers (certain noises)

which seemed so strange because 4S is about the antithesis of ASMR to me.

Okay, I'm not sure if this link will work:

Very strange! So..have any of you experienced this?
