ASMR = Si?

[Sol]

I don't know, my LIE friend has always been into ASMR, but I, an EII, never understood its phenomena. If I were to have anything to do with it, I'd be a creator of such content, I guess.

Probably all the ones which do asmr clips perviously looked that and liked. They do it for fan, mostly.

You need to tune to get the effect. Sometimes same works worse. Different people prefer different stimuls. Check different variants. One of the principles can to be sensory overload which creates trance state. You may try trance techniques, like a meditation or other - this may change your reactions on asmr later.

I don't really see how this is uncomfortable for most people, but then again I never question anything if it makes me feel good. I just like the sensation so I like it, I don't overthink it.

You are supposed to find it boring and weird though if you feel nothing. It's not something you are supposed to enjoy with the 5 senses, its something to enjoy from the subjective sensation it gives some people, and it is a very defineable sensation.

It's like if you were to say"I don't like the taste of vodka but I've never been drunk before" well no one is supposed to enjoy it...or I guess until you get used to it

ASMR creeps me out. I feel like I've been kidnapped.

[aixelsyd]

Doesn't seem anymore Si than music is Si.

[Sol]

ASMR creeps me out, too. I can't watch it without being weirded out.

Relax and concentrate on the voice, imagine you as a child with a father near you who reads a tale for your sleeping, allow the sound to calm you, imagine yourself in a pleasant place which the voice describes.
The task is to switch from the problems and worries on that stuff, to allow you to have a rest.

I like soft sounding cooking shows like this one:



My life is one big hectic mess of always rushing and overthinking so watching/listening to these vids actually helps me relax (if only even for a few min)

I can only do cooking shows tho. don’t rlly care for any other “ASMR” lol

[The Reality Denialist]

I have discovered that it does nothing for me.

it's related to sensing stimuli and probably the most interesting for suggestive Se types which is why sol watches that shit all the time.

[Northstar]

Here's one for @Sol to type.

[Aster]

My 4 year old likes ASMR and will fall asleep to it, so now I’ve watched a few people and am no longer as weirded out by it. But this is really the only one I like https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCmZb4LwQRhEzZX5Uqpcqziw so far

[necrosebud]

I don’t feel anything

[Sol]

Here's one for Sol to type.

mostly associates with P
seems sensory awkward, good in emotionality
mb INFP

Also. There she mentions a psychotherapy. This may mean higher behavior distortions from: 1) symptoms, 2) psychoactive meds, 2) psyche therapy methods. Changes from type's common can be in different and in differing degree.

Her panic attacks would become lesser if she'd added everyday physical load (2h working as easy example). Some monthes mb enough to remove that, without special therapy. We get emotional stress, in some time of the life - much of it. Adrenalin arises and without physical load it's not processed correctly, - develops abnormal regulation of it's quantity or perception. N types who have lesser interest to physical work should get alike more often. FN the most, as they react more emotionally and hence get more expressed fluctuations in adrenalin levels, their regulation mechanism gets higher pressing.
People of today industrial societies live in conditions differing from what were at their ancestors, to what was developed genetical adoption. Something have become better, but something worse. Among what gets problems is psyche work, including hormones processes. We today have lesser friendly communications, deal with more of new people, have lesser of physical activity, get new chronic infections which may influence on psyche and other, have other meal than in past, have toxins in food, meds, drugs and environment which influence on psyche too (check recent problem with plumbum). It influences on kids during developing of their brain and bodies, on people during the life. Then appear some disorders massively and subclinical forms. Brain is most complex organ, it gets noticable problems easier than other.

ASMR - an Si phenomena?

EDIT: example -

I'm Si dom and find ASMR annoying af.

[Finaplex]

Here's one for @Sol to type.

This reminds me of stuff I would do as a kid. Just randomly touch and move things and listen to them. This asmr is like rudimentary lesson in sense perception. Not the ONLY kind that can be done, but you get what I mean.

this is constructive in a general sense.

Yeah same.

How so?

[BrainlessSquid]

Si isn't anywhere, but in yourself. Don't look for it in the distance. Look inside of yourself. Anything can be translated into Si terms if you fix yourself somewhere in time and space. If you wanna know what Si vibe feels like, read the little prince. Better yet, listen to it in asmr version.

[WinnieW]

I don't watch ASMR videos, I find them somewhat between boring to annoying.
Whispered voices have no relaxing effect to me.
