What is Veeky Forums's opinion on ASMR?

reddit.com/r/nsfwasmr

you're welcome.

I'm on noporn but thought some of you might appreciate it.

I think I'm nearing the point of being completely desensitised to it now. I remember back in 2011 or so when I think the most viewed videos by some of the channels that are big now were still in the tens of thousands of views range. I used to feel the sensation really strong in my head and back and I think I must have spent 2 years where I was falling asleep to ASMR videos almost every night.

Most videos are just rehashing the same sorts of triggers on top of each other now. And the roleplays are on the verge of being short films with the amount of work that goes into them. Seems pointless to me though as the more outlandish and unconventional the roleplay becomes the less effective it gets, usually it just gets cringy.

There's also so many people in it for the money now. I feel like with the amount of monetisation involved there is a fine line between it coming across as a job for someone(even if they are good at it like asmr requests) and it still being hobby and being 'authentic'(heather feather), and if it lacks that authenticity then it just doesn't work for me.

It's totally legit for relaxing and basically as a form of meditation. But girlfriend roleplays are the fucking worst and should be purged. Probably doesn't help that there are literally porn stars who have started up ASMR channels on the side.

I'd completely forgotten about reply girls. You're definitely right. I've had conversations with normies I work with about ASMR who know about it from a related videos. You get the odd media article here and there. It is all bad news.

This is all trash.

I'm waiting for some actual scientific evidence. I experience ASMR personally so I'm waiting for some kind of research that will eventually prove that it's an autonomous response similar to frission. From there I expect that ASMR therapy will become a thing and it will get more mainstream.

>popular amongst those who lack any kind of intimacy in their lives (romantic or otherwise).
That would be me. Never had a gf, no woman execpt my mom or aunts hugged me and it was still just friendly family hug not close hug that you give to a person you love.

I'm pretty sure it is just a remnant of a time when we needed to groom one another as apes. The only times I get it 'in real life' is at the barbers, and the best ASMR videos I've experienced are ones where that sort of space between you and another person is recreated, having somebody behind you and around you.

I agree it'll definitely go mainstream, but I can't see anybody ever paying money for it long term in the same way they'd pay for a massage or whatever. I think it'll always be virtual. If VR ever kicks off it might find a second home there but youtube seems to have done fine for the past 5 year or however long.

I've always experienced asmr for as long as I can remember. I get tingles if I think about certain comfy memories or hear music, speeches, or poems I can really relate to on a personal level. I've been watching asmr videos daily since I was 14 and i'm 20 now. I still get tingles every day.
Ephemeral Rift and Dr. Dmitri are my go to's.

Fucking autistic bullshit for autistic wastes of space that deserve to be shot in the head.

>noporn
>uses what is quite literally just porn

listen to it pretty much every night
only stuff like ear touching though, roleplays are fucking gay as shit

Easy roid rage, it's just website

I use the whispering stuff as a sleeping aid.

I think I'd go crazy if I didn't have ASMR videos to trick my brain into believing that people talk to me

STANDING HERE

It's for desperate men, hungry to hear the gentle soothing voice of a woman, like calming music spoken by a woman who would run from you irl.

If you fuck up your cut, or said "you too" when the girl at the theater told you to enjoy your movie, or just really like Warhammer 40,000, Fairy Char will never reject me.

Are there any ASMR peoples where they don't whisper and just have pleasant voices or is the whispering the point of the whole thing?
Someone told me I had a nice enough voice for it, but when I listened to some on youtube, I found it unnerving and a bit aggravating how unnatural it all seemed. I didn't find it relaxing that you could hear every click of their tongue, every smack of their lips and their breathing into the mic.

Hope you niggas got some vr headsets

I agree with you, I prefer when they talk in more of a normal voice since it's more natural and what you would experience in real life.

I think whispering is the default. I've seen some stuff that's called "soft spoken" as opposed to whisper.

I like some of it. More the stuff that is like white noise, the touching and random noise stuff. Sometimes I fall asleep with my headphones on and wake up in the middle of the night to anime girls making wet blowjob sounds in my ear because thanks youtube.

I like this girl's stuff.

>reading comprehension

I really like it.

that gf roleplay stuff is cringey as fuck.

ASMR is dumb as fuck.
M-MUH BRAIN TINGLY

It has the opposite of intended effect on me, it drives me into an indescribable rage.

Exactly the same rage lipsmacking and chewing sounds produce incidentally. Can't explain it, just makes me want to smash things with hammers.

I know exactly what you mean. Idk why but that shit makes me homicidal. My sister always chewed with her mouth open growing up and I wanted to choke the fuck out of her when she did it. That being said I enjoy non-trigger ASMR like when they're just talking or reading something quietly.

jokes on you I listen to men doing ASMR

Gril is qt3.14 one of the few ASMR channels I'm subscribe to

I subscribed to this girl youtube.com/user/pigsbum53/videos a few years ago when I was really into that but it has been some time since I checked. It seems like most ASMR these days is roleplay stuff

Yeah, it helps me sleep (knocks me out in >20 minutes every time) but I haven't gotten the tingles in a long time.

I don't care at all what the girls look like (because I have my headphones in as I'm lying down, I don't even look at the screen) but yeah it's getting pretty ridiculous. I often end up deleting ASMR vids from my YouTube history so I don't end up with ten thousand " Let me sleep beside you! loving friend roleplay" videos in my suggestion bar so people think I'm a sex weirdo

the only one worth watching lads

MAGA youtube.com/watch?v=EFiimhMT2ls

kek, as soon as I read MAGA I knew it was Marg

>EpicAsmr
Half of his stuff is barely asmr but his podcasts are at least motivational

Also ephemeral rift goat

I like heather feather and sensor adi
Heathers sk sk sounds made me feel pretty euphoric and had a soothing feeling going down the right side of my spine.

This is a good one, the mouth sounds arent really that gross. I always hated when people chewed with their mouth open but i started listening to shit like this at work and now i dont care.

My ear crackles at sounds close to my ear or too loud, especially ny right ear. Its really soothing to listen to some asmr videos because they dont make.my ears crackle.
