bless you for wanting to help others

I don't want anyone to feel like they're alone when they're upset, and some people who have panics haven't been introduced to asmr yet. Maybe they'll find it soothing when they have no one to call or don't want to talk to anyone just yet.

thank you so much

been alone my whole life, nothing new there.

but its nice to see people stepping in to help others who may not be capable of facing the horrors and suffering that life throws at them, i see communities created by some youtubers who support each other like that, and its quite pleasant to see.

This meant so much to me, thank you.

feel better <3 you're welcome

I hope I'm not bothering you but, I woke up and had a really bad morning and this help me a lot.. So thank you again. ;u;

awww ;u; you're welcome~

This is really wonderful, thank you for doing this~

It's only my second attempt at producing an affirmation recording, so I'm glad it's helping someone ;u;

Thank you so much u.u

Please do post more... I am in the middle of a attack than k you listeing ot it now.

I really didn't expect this to be helpful to someone so soon, but that makes me so happy to help. Feel better, treat yourself right. It's going to be okay~

Came in handy again today, been off my pills for three days because of this cold that makes me throw eveyrthing up

Bless you. Really needed this.

It's going to be alright, you're going to make it through <3

This is really nice of you to do. And pretty interesting the one you found on youtube as well. Thank you<3 Helps me and I'm sure plenty of others as it seems that have anxiety and panic attacks =)

I didn't expect such a sudden reaction <3 I'm glad it helps~
the one I found on youtube was a last-ditch effort to help myself. I searched for asmr for panic attacks and found that, and it helped me through it <3

It does. it definitely does help.
I most of the time(though getting better) I go through an all day daily anxiety/panic attack and end up looking up stuff to help but I actually never thought to look up an asmr stuff on youtube =)
I'm glad that it helped you and you got through your panic attack<3 definitely not fun when they happen.

Yeah... Mine was from a sudden drop in bloodsugar that startled me into a bad train of thought. That's why I really liked her asmr reminding me of food, water, tea and meds. Sometimes we forget these things that actually can help us.

Ah yeah that's definitely how it happens. something triggers it into that bad thought and it sticks.
Yeah that's very true. its the little things. I know something recently for myself and maybe it can help you is just being able to get up and walk or something like that.
I've found that since I graduated and my work is from home I don't get to move around as much. taking a daily 30min to hour walk has been helping so much with anxiety and sleep issues.
maybe that can help you as well if you ever need it and trying to figure something out =)

Your voice is very calming and soothing. <3

thank you so much ;u;
I'm actually pretty self-conscious and I knew my mic wasn't very good, but im glad it's not too distracting with the noise.

It's very nice that you'd want to help peoples like that ^-^

This is gonna help me a lot in the coming months. Thank you so much for making this, Sal, it really is great.

I actually thought about you when I was really nervous about posting it. I remembered your encouragement on my first one... it helped me along a lot...~

Mmmmm, I'm glad I could help ;w; And I'm so proud of you for posting this, even if you were nervous. Its gonna help a lot of people <3

I'm sure this'll be helpful for those in need of someone to help relax then, even if its prerecorded ^..^

Them* not then XP

Haha, you are such a sweet person! XD So very thoughtful~ I've never thought of making one of these kinda things~ but they seem really useful for people with troubles! ovo

Either way, its super thoughtful to do something like this! :D

Good wishes to you forever!

aah this is excellent, thank you so much <3 it's so neat finding other furs who experience asmr, it's definitely soothing no matter how bad you feel

I hesitate to do more abstracty asmr stuff without making a new account for it... but it'd be nice to do something like that ;u;
because of FA's limtations with audio and complete lack of video support, it might be hard...

that'd be so neat !!! i wish you the best of luck on it!! ;;w;;

Very nice :)

I was on the verge of having one tonight..
I tried calling some friends who knows I have them real bad, and talking to family is hard. They try to tell me to "calm down" or say that's enough and get over it. It just makes things worse.. I don't like loud tones of voices when I am panicking..because it just makes me freak out more, makes me think they are yelling at me.
I love your whispering soft voice.. Even with tears down down my cheeks..I was able to listen to this with headphones on and managed to keep calm..thank you ever so much.. <3

I understand what that's like... so glad that I could help...~

Thank you so much for this <3

By all means, keep it up. I'll be squirreling them away for a bad day.

what is ASMR? My sister listens to it all the time. something about heather feather or something

It stands for autonomous sensory meridian response, it's a pleasant tingling sensation which supposedly happens in response to certain stimuli, in videos it's usually soft whispering. The evidence it's actually related to any specific stimulus isn't that good (it's regarded as pseudoscience) but even if it's entirely in your head that isn't the same as it not being real. After all, the entire rest of your mind is also something that only exists in your head.

heatherfeather is a lovely ASMR artist~ there's a lot of work that goes into being a part of the community. I've been watching for about four years. Never really thought I'd do any, mostly because of self-consciousness.

But yes, as stated earlier, ASMR is a tingly reaction that some people get to personal attention, whispering, 'triggers' that make them feel nice and warm and safe. We're not entirely certain what causes ASMR because triggers are different for everyone and it cannot always be repeated, but those who do experience it will tell you that it's an intense feeling of well-being and comfort.

Oh, and not everyone experiences it! In fact, it's estimated that only one in five people experience ASMR at any point in their life. Others simply might not be susceptible. We're still unsure why.

I have a few theories about dopamine/seratonin release and correlation to early childhood experiences and empathy, but they're too vague to pursue just yet! What I'd love to see is MRI scans while someone is experiencing ASMR, though the two are pretty difficult to do at the same time because MRI's are loud and scary, which would suppress the reaction.

Such a nice thing to do! :3 i've got quite a few friends who experience panic attacks. I think if you'd like to do more of these go for it!~
The more help out there the better.

Thank you for this. I'm gonna stash it in my faves just in case I need it in the future. ;w;/

yaaay~
for your sake, I hope you don't need it anytime soon ;u;

Well, even if I don't have panic attack, I think it helps getting more peaceful and such, calming, thanks =).

Thank you for sending this out Sal. I have a few friends that suffer from panic attacks on a reglar basis so i know what it's like o help someone when they are in that state. I for one have also suffered from a few in my life and I was so relieved to those that helped me during that time. So thank you Sal. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and for all those you are helping with this post. <3

You're so welcome~
This sounds bad, but... watching that video made me realize that it was what I needed to hear, but also made me a little sad because it's not really what I hear from a lot of the people I confide in. then again, I try to keep it to myself more, which I wouldn't suggest doing.

Even without having a panic attack, just listening made me feel quite a bit better. Thank you ~

Wait, you are softlygaloshes :O Awesome!

a fan of softlygaloshes* 3 am brain

Wow, this was so soothing. I'll have to remember it the next time I'm feeling anxious. Thank you so much for sharing this! ^_^

This is really nice. Also tech thing: even with the mic you have, you could probably pull out the background hiss with an audio program with noise removal like Audacity (which is free), there's a guide to doing it on their wiki.

wanna hear the awful truth? ;u; I had already done noise removal three times on this track. Any more and the required audio would go wonky. -lesigh-
It's a really crappy headphone mic from who knows when. I've been meaning to get a nicer one!

Hnn<3 The sound of rain on windows and tents really helps me when I'm stressed.

mmm, I love it too...~

Thank you for posting this, I've been going through some tense feelings of anxiety lately, to the point where it was affecting my college work. Listening to it, really helped to ease my mind, please, if you get any spare time, post more of these. With all the negativity I'm experiencing right now, a little positivity goes a long way.

I'm glad it helped!
I'm actually considering getting a better mic to be able to do more of these... I don't know if I'll ever be truly comfortable enough to make videos, but maybe?

Do please consider expanding it, videos or even a better mic. It would help all the more. I'm usually quite guarded with my emotions, so it really says something you were able to breach through that and lower my guard a bit. It was nice to not feel so distressed today.

God bless you and your loved ones :)

Awwwh this is great. Thank you so so much for making these ASMR has been an amazing lifesaver for me this past year, and I'm glad to see the community growing with more wonderful people like you wanting to help others.

I cannot fall asleep at night without watching/listening to an ASMR video. I just can't.
This will be my drug tonight, sense trying to listen now is making me drowsy XD
Thanks for this, I loooove your voice, so sweet and relaxing!

Very cool! :D

OMG!! You made an asmr !! Gosh these are the most helpful things ever and your voice is very nice ;v; Thank you for this, these are... very nice. <3

This is pretty awesome Sal. Have you gone to the ASMR subreddit?

This is so going on my mp3 player for whenever I need it! You have a very nice voice too! Thanks for making this!

awww thank you ;u;

This is amazing. I have anxiety attacks 3-4 times a day, it's very Nice to take your time to help.others!

Thank you. Just hearing that it was going to be alright and breathing with you helped me. I hope your doing alright.

i was actually honestly expecting this to be corny but it was in all reality very sweet and affirming, i'd never heard of asmr before and this was a nice stepping stone into that subject matter. very soothing, positive work, favoriting this because it is worthwhile to know where it's at in case of emergency.

thank you for giving it a chance~

leigh introduced me to asmr a few months ago and I was pretty much like "well, this makes my life make a little more sense"...I've been trying to commit to making short videos when I can because I've found that I really enjoy making them (making the videos themselves has become a super comfy stress relief) so it made me super happy to see you posting this here along with all of the positive feedback that you've received. keep up the awesome job (you have an awesomely calm/soothing voice by the way. :D)

Nice! Feel free to join our group. If you want, we can host your content to get you more exposure on FA for your ASMR

I love ASMR. E=3
Listening Point from YouTube has some really cool ASMR, btw. E;3

You are super sweet and I'm sure this will help many!

aw thank you!

This is totally going to help me out in the future..thank you!

you're so welcome!

This is beyond sweet for someone to even think of doing this for people. The thought of this alone just calms me...it makes me happy to know that there are still wonderul, caring people like you still in this world...thank you! I can't say it enough...

this actualy works. it works so well. thankyou so much. I went and share dit with some other friends of mine who also suffer panic attacks.

the hardest thing to hear is that I'm capable. that actually makes me uncomfortable. I cried. but it's also something that I think needed to be said.... it's an important part of this, because I know I beat myself up to much over it and make my panic attacks worse when I do. also, the continual reminders to breathe were super good. I think that made some of the most difference. maybe not the biggest difference, but a pretty damn big difference.

on that note, I'm going to nibble on some breakfast and sip some water.

you can do it ;u; enjoy your breakfast and remember to breathe!

I kind of wanna hug you right now. you are wonderful, thankyou so much.

I'm really glad that I randomly look through your gallery. This is a wonderful thing to happen upon. Thanks, Sal. <3

thank yooooooooooooooooooou! this is great.. >^<

Your voice is so soft and sweet, perfect for ASMR. Thank you for making this. <3 It's really helping me relax and help my Anxiety.

thank you so much! <3

this is great- thank you for saving my life..

hang in there, it's going to be okay ;u;

The fade out at the end was great for not being an abrupt stop. The whole thing was calming

This is amazing you have such a sweet and comforting voice <3 if only I found this during my junior year of high school I had a teacher mr tarbox who'd sometimes give me a really hard time

;u; -hug-

i can’t thank you enough for this- i’ve used it to relax for the last few years and i always find myself soothed by your voice. you’re such a lovely person for this and it’s great of you to want to help! <3

<3 thank you! I've been contemplating trying to make another, but I wasn't sure what else I could do ;u;

congratulations it works probably a bit to well cant get more then 30 second in before i have to stop
love it
