“ASMR” fucking riles me up, I can’t understand how that stuff is supposed to be nice. The only desire I have listening to it is to smash my fucking speakers / headphones after a short while. Imagine someone holding stuff close to your ear making obnoxious sounds, same thing.
I have fairly severe misophonia. I wish my reaction to ASMR was this mild. I can’t be in the same room or hear it at all because it literally triggers fight or flight for me and I will likely have to restrain myself before I involuntarily sprint away. The best case scenario is covering my ears blocks the sound, the worst case is I scream, beg, and cry for it to stop until it does. I fucking hate how asmr bleeds into things like ads or even movies since it makes my life he’ll for a time.
