When did you notice you might have ASMR?

First time ASMR

Looking back, one of the first moments where I believe I had a relaxing feeling from watching an action which could be related to ASMR would have been when I was in high school.

I remember watching the person next to me write with their pen or draw something and I would instantly start to feel really relaxed!

However back then, I had no idea what ASMR was, so I could never put the two together, however I knew that watching this would relax me.

Years later I found myself watching videos of calligraphy on YouTube and found I also found extremely relaxing to watch.

From there, I began to watch massage videos which also helped me relax and I somehow stumbled upon “ASMR” videos which then gave me a name for which to describe the feelings I have been getting all those years.

Since then I have never looked back!
