@SirLionelNigelConrad:
incredible. And here I haven't even gotten so much as a call back from most places. Or, if i do find something, it's only temporary.

@Uncledaddy:
yeah, my situation was kinda similar. my doctor suggested i take a break for mental health purposes cause things were getting to be unmanageable. But shit, I almost wish I hadn't.
but yeah, i'm not volunteering at the moment, but that was definitely something I wanted to do.

I wish you luck on your job search! Hope it goes a hell of a lot better than mine.

@Unicorn:
i wish that were here lol

@Fellowsheep:
Ah yes, monhun.
I have a few friends who play. Unfortunately, no console and there's no way my laptop could run that game. Looks fun tho. My friend streams it from time to time so i like to watch.

@Uncledaddy:
yes, the asmr and ambiance stuff is heavenly!
also, i can totally understand not enjoying mouth sounds and the like. I have a friend who also has misophonia.

there's this one channel dedicated to ambiance videos, but i found their spooky ambiance videos and i instantly fell in love.
Tapping and crinkly noises are among my favorite things to listen to when it comes to asmr, and you can hear a fair bit of it the spooky stuff.


@Ixora:
crinkles and tapping then? yes yes? crinkles are my favorite. I can also get asmr from visual stuff, and there's this one girl on youtube called TingtingASMR and she does this silent tea ceremony and holeeeey shiet. one of my favs.

@Kira:
yeah, but that one's spooky for a different reason.

Gross. Unfortunately, pushy sales tactics happen because they know someone will give in at some point.
I hate it.

We get this super popular midway that comes every year around here, and I HATE walking through the games area during the quiet hours.
The people working at those stands are relentless. They're hooked up to mics and shit so you can hear them over the, ordinarily large crowds, and they will literally call you out as long as you're in sight. We had one guy get very aggressive to my friend and I, and I fuckin' caved at that instead of continuing to walk away like I should have but, the way he addressed us really kicked me in the anxiety and childhood traumas so, what can you do. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I wasted five dollars and ten minutes of my time on a game I didn't like and guy I wanted to murder.

@Bioshock:
That is strange that it only happens on one side.

I discovered asmr videos back in like 2011 and they were a godsend because i was struggling with anxiety and ocd at the time. They were a great distraction. It also put a name to the tinglies i would experience as a kid watching certain movies or doing certain activities.

I admit, i think i've burned thru so many asmr vidoes up to this point thst im starting to build up a tolerance. So while i dont always get tingles, they can still be relaxing.

@Shark:
there are definitely just as many asmr parodies out there as there are actual asmr videos.
i get a kick out of the asmr videos that use scenerios that are the exact opposite of relaxing. like these. I enjoy wyatt kane.

but it's totally understandable not to care for them! I know they're not everyone's cup of tea, and that's a-ok.

Posted in tell me something Posted 5 years ago

asmr, do you enjoy? or do you think it's weird? or are you indifferent?

I think it's nice. i particularly like anything involving rain/water sounds and also white noise.
:static-celebrate:

also here, a gift!
