It's actually something I only very rarely experience in so strong a way but I assumed that kind of feeling was one that EVERY human being got in certain situations like that. ![]() Like watching that video and seeing him shine the light around and talk in that ultra-soothing voice and the fact he just has a soothing-looking face, it gives me those sensations very strongly, and in fact I do get it in similar situations (like going to the doctor or even the dentist depending on what's being done that visit) etc. ![]() they kinda come and go at whims throughout my life) are very strongly tied to this "ASMR" sensation, this kind of 'need' to satisfy these weird, bizarre, very specific things does elicit a feeling very much like described, though briefly.īut other than that, I absolutely have this kind of thing in the exact way described as well, separately. I do very strongly feel that these tics (and many others besides the ones described. If any of you have ever watched the TV show "The Middle", the youngest family member Brick has a lot of these same exact tics like I always had (and interestingly enough I was considered a genius as a kid like he is, so maybe it's ind of a 'thing' that's known about enough for a character in a sitcom like that to exhibit such symptoms and be so similar in so many ways to me as a kid?). I used to have stuff like "I need to get light shined in specific parts of my eye to feel satisfied!' which i'd achieve with a window or TV or whatever, and these days I often feel like "I need to hear a specific sound or repeat specific things kinda to myself to feel satisfied!" a lot. I've had it all my life, though I've always thought it was just some weird bizarre "I'm probably the only person in the universe who has this" thing that's intrinsically tied to my various other 'nerve-related things' like tics and various OCD habits. The sounds that I prefer are soft whispers accompanied by brushstroke sounds. Both types of triggers vary between individuals, but many are common to a large portion of ASMR enjoyers.Īnyone here have em? Share your experiences! Tell us what made you have Brain Tingles! What triggers it? What do you feel?Īs for me, I enjoy it. Type B episodes are triggered involuntarily by an external trigger, via one or more senses, and may also involve specific thought patterns associated with the triggering event. Type A episodes are elicited by the experiencer using no external stimuli, and are typically achieved by specific thought patterns unique to the individual. Most ASMR episodes begin by an external or internal trigger, and are so divided for classification. So I’m like a modern-day Beethoven, except I suck at composing music.Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) is a physical sensation characterized by a pleasurable tingling that typically begins in the head and scalp, and often moves down the spine and through the limbs. Oh, and I was diagnosed in 2010 with having an Acoustic Neuroma in my left ear which led to permanent hearing loss and tinnitus in that ear. I’m also an ex-Roman Catholic turned non-believer, critical thinker, freethinker, cynical optimist, skeptic, artist, actor, comedian, unpublished amateur writer/lyricist/poet, photographer, videographer, director, producer, video editor, sound designer, Foley artist, audio engineer, costume designer, set designer, prop designer, makeup artist, foodie, gamer, and even a hybrid stoic-nihilist-humanist-naturalist-anarchist who belongs to no group nor ideology. ![]() I am in independent, D.I.Y., jack-of-all-trades master-of-none with a variety of interests just like anyone else. Except the podcast is currently on hiatus so the channel is now mainly ASMR. I enjoy creating a wide variety of videos ranging from whisper-quiet, relaxing, traditional & avant-garde ASMR videos to unfiltered, freeform podcasts covering every topic under the sun and beyond. My YouTube channel and channel name were created in September 2011 prior to the whole ASMR thing. That’s when I realized the thing I experienced all my life had a name, and the rest is history. My name is Paul McNelis and this is my 3rd home, the 2nd being my YouTube channel (where I dump the majority of my creative energy), and the 1st being the actual house where I live with my wife and son in Southeastern Pennsylvania where we were all born, raised, and still reside.Īfter spending most of my 20’s, 30’s and 40’s trying to figure out what I wanted to do with my life creatively, beyond simply being a husband and father, I stumbled onto the ASMR niche on YouTube in the spring of 2012. Good Now! I hope you’re doing splentastic!
