I'm new to ASMR. I'm pretty sure I've been experiencing it all my life. From what I've read, its described as a mild electrical tingle sensation that starts at the top of the head, runs down the spine, and can then radiate out into the extremities. Is that correct?
So I've watched a bunch of the videos to see if anything can randomly trigger it. But it turns out, the only thing that triggers it for me, is me. I can create the sensation at will in an instant. (Usually. Sometimes it takes a couple seconds or a couple tries) I can control it's intensity, and prolong it's duration to several minutes. I can initiate it from any point along my spina and let it radiate out from that point. I can also control it's movement through my body. For example, sometimes I'll start it on the left side of my brain and let it pour down only the left side if my body. Then start it over again only in the right side of my brain this time, and only traveling down the right side of me. Or sometimes I just hold it in a specific point and don't let it radiate outward from that point at all. If I want a more random feeling experience, I can create triggers for it. By that I mean I can basically "allow" whatever I want to trigger it. I can even make the tingle it's self trigger another wave. This creates an infinite feedback loop of waves, each increasing in intensity. Does anyone else experience anything similar to this? I can't seem to find anything like this in any forum or comments in any videos.
