Remembering the period where people insisted ASMR was an understudied scientific phenomenon, and it just needed funding to understand what was going on, and within three months tops it just meant a content category

Honestly I wish it had been studied more instead, because I can get it from a bunch of stuff that isn’t audio related, and a lot of the audio doesn’t work for me. I was very surprised when I first heard about it, like “oh shit that’s that thing! I didn’t know other people had that”
Part of that is that the ASMR category subsumed the whisper category, which predated ASMR as a category and included a lot of the not-really-ASMR stuff.
half of it is even labelled "to help you sleep" or "to help with anxiety" and girl no what are you talking about
