Signs You’re an ASMR Addict!
5 telltale signs you’ve gone down the ASMR rabbit hole — and there’s no turning back!
Are you one of those people who can’t get enough of ASMR? Do you find yourself spending hours on end watching videos of people tapping, whispering, and crinkling things just to get that tingly sensation? Well, my friend, you might just be an ASMR addict. Don’t worry though, you’re not alone. Here are some signs to help you figure out if you’re one of us:
You have a favorite ASMRtist.
Just like how people have their favorite TV shows or bands, you have your go-to ASMRtist. You know their name by heart, you follow them on all their social media platforms, and you eagerly wait for their next video to drop. You might even have a secret shrine dedicated to them in your room (no judgment here).
You have a playlist solely dedicated to ASMR.
Your playlist isn’t just any ordinary playlist, it’s a carefully curated selection of the best ASMR videos on the internet. You have everything from tapping to scratching to ear-eating (weird, but we won’t judge). You listen to it every night before bed and it’s become an essential part of your routine.
You’ve tried to introduce ASMR to your non-ASMR friends.
You can’t understand why your friends don’t get the same satisfaction from ASMR as you do. You’ve even tried to make them listen to your favorite videos, but they just give you weird looks and tell you to turn it off. You might have even considered ending the friendship because of it (kidding… or am I?).
You’ve fallen asleep in public while listening to ASMR.
We’ve all been there. You’re on the bus or the train, listening to your favorite ASMR video, and before you know it, you’re out like a light. You wake up to find that everyone around you is staring at you like you’re crazy. But hey, at least you got a good nap in.
You’ve spent money on ASMR-related things.
You’ve gone to great lengths to satisfy your ASMR addiction. You’ve bought special headphones, a microphone, and even a special microphone stand. You’ve also bought countless items just for the sole purpose of making ASMR videos (a bag of rice for tapping, anyone?). Your bank account might hate you, but at least you’re happy, right?
If you related to any of the signs above, then congratulations, my friend, you’re an ASMR addict. Embrace it, enjoy it, and keep on tingling!
