Strange habits

We all have them. What's yours?

Here's something really weird…

For those that don't know, there's a sensation known as "ASMR". Basically, any time you hear certain quiet sounds, whispering, or watch someone perform a specific task, you get weird tingly feelings all throughout your head and neck. It's almost intoxicating. Not everyone experiences it, but if I'm, say, at the doctor's office and the doctor asks me a question and then makes a bunch of notes, I get the sensation. No explanation for this. Just feels really interesting.

DUDE. I've been trying to figure out what this was all my life but never knew how to describe it. I get this ALL THE TIME when listening to music that I love. It's like a mini-orgasm in my head.

So glad I found the name for this now, thanks!

Lmao no problem, I actually spent the longest time trying to figure it out too. I realized, there's actually a cult community surrounding this sensation lol. If you look up ASMR videos on youtube, there are actually a lot of people who make videos for "tickle-heads" that purposely trigger this feeling. It's one of my favorite feelings honestly lol
