WEIRD SENSATION FEELS GOOD - PART 2

I have this feeling too!

I am extremely happy to find others with the same condition...or whatever it is because most people dont believe me or think im weird.

I am 17, Caucasian male.

Im not sure if it has a connection as far as spirituality but I consider myself a truth seeker. i too feel that I am more in-tune with emotions and people's thoughts...maybe a connection im not sure.

Lots of things set it off, doctors visits etc but let me know if this helps, I watch this man's videos all the time because i get the head feeling constantly while watching/listening to them.


BTW he talks about things you may not agree with but just listen to his voice...it works for me EVERYTIME.

Well, I just come from working out and I got the sensation while doing crunches, and remember i had always wanted to look this up.

-I do not participate in religion; everything is alive and has energy type person
-this sensation can happen anytime, place, and at will

Okay, this has happened my whole life. The older I get the more it occurs.

My know triggers are a little different:

-first time really, really noticeable was while eating a banana. Everytime I eat a bananna this sensation happens. It is happening right now, and happened while I was working out this morning at 430am. I was doing side crunches and it was wonderful. I laid there then it stopped. When I came home, I got on here to look it up and from the time I started reading till now it has kept going.
-When I worked in food service, I would get it as I waited on people, and I would almost cry. I thought I could feel their pain. My father is extremely obese, and so was this man I was waiting on. I felt as if he had the same pain from his wieght as my father, and would die from problems from wieght. For some reson the thought he was about to die crossed my mind, and I thought I was crazy. Then, come out of the sensation state. This is what makes me relly feel like a freak!
-movies do not have to be sad, but the best is a sad movie 7 pounds. All I have to do it think about the title am I get it. I think it's b/c of my past S.I. (suicidal ideation)
-memories
-watching a clock
-focusing in on something
-watching someones mouth while they speak
-pot is the best one, next to the movie 7 pounds
-work b/c of kids I can relate to from drug use and S.I.
-A lot when tired
-extreme happiness
-me reading a book i.e. Slumdog millionaire aka Q&m
-mainly if I can relate to someone/something

While I was a pot smoker, I would tell people about this strange sensation. It starts at my head the down my whole entire body, and I would have a very cold sensation. My body would feel as if It could rise. This only happen with pot. While I smoke,d it was as if the whole entire world made sense, and I knew my prupose=trigger.Oh!! Fishing while high did it too. I felt one with nature and the world was so beautiful.Also while high, I thought nothing made sense, and couldn't understand why people made movies that where not realistic=trigger i.e. shaft. W/O pot it is at my head then down my neck and arms, and only slightly cold. With strong emotion, it's my whole body. Ussually it is wonderful, but sometime can be depressing.

Oh, I am still experiencing it. I have never gone this long. It's a numb feeling that can tingle at times. Massage warms the spot up cuz my head is cold in that one spot.

One time I was walking down the hall at work and something caught my attention. I sat there for a good while having the sensation staring at idk what. I've had it talking to people, by myself, eating, crying, think about suicide, and cutting.
I think my concentration on the computer screen is what's causing it, right now.


Overall, I think this has to do with intense deep emotions. This is probably just a head rush . I feel like I can tap into a person's feelings and even my most inner ones. But, I do not know about the bananas. I can also get it from strawberries, orange juice; mainly fruit.
Anyone Else?

I thought I was deficient in some vitamins or lack of oxygen. Maybe this is a seperate feeling, but it feels the same. Hope this understandable cuz I'm come down from the sensation now, aaahhhhhhh. It was mostly on the left side on my head, in the back, close to my ear.

I'm the same guest as the above post...I realized now that the link i sent was removed?

Just go on youtube and Search Yogeesh and you will see videos of an older indian man. Watch them. It always works for me!

Firstly........wow, I'm not the only wierd one!

Secondly, my experiences are pretty much the same as everyone else.........
Watching people concentrate or draw on me/pictures of me makes it happen for me

I'm not sure if it's the same for everyone but I've noticed that with me it only happens when someone is concentrating on doing something for me.

I think i'm pretty empathetic towards others....I don't know if that has anything to do with it.

I talked to my mum about it today; she used to learn how to do reiki and is very sensitive to thoughts and energy (sometimes we even have random almost telepathic moments where we both think the same thing at the same time). I thought she would have some sort of idea but she looked at me like I was retarded :-P so i'm veryyyyy curious to see if someone can figure out what this thing is!

oh and im 16, female, greek descent, living in melbourne, australia :-)

Sooooo weird, lol. I've felt this all my life... when I was a kid, I thought it was normal. When I asked other people about it though, they looked at me like I had two heads. Randomly did this search and found this site, so crazy. Lots of things set it off like people mentioned before, certain people's voices (Bob Ross...), repetitive noises (the sound of someone chewing, water running, writing on a chalkboard, etc.), watching people do repetitive tasks, someone doing something repetitive for me like brushing my hair... I'm 25 and male, based on this thread it would seem like gender has nothing to do with it. I do consider myself to be pretty in tune with other people's emotions, and I'm definitely a sympathetic/empathetic person.

hi there friends!
same thing here... whole my life. Until recently I didnt give much attention to it. I ways always like: " cool, i like it very much" but thats it... it would go away and everything is just as it was. But recently those "head orgasms" are comming quite often and are quite intense... Once, it was so intense i had my whole vision distorted and I mean like time/space distorted... Also, i had this special kind which lasted for hours and was so intense i couldnt function at all... i could just lie there. (but it happened as a sideffect of a medicine i needed at that time)

This feeling of pure satisfaction, pure bliss on top and back of my scalp. It is so beautiful that i am not able to do anything else... i just want to enjoy it

my triggers are pretty much same as once described in posts before mine: bob ross painting show (its more about his voice and all the calmess around there)... then, jamie oliver show, but any cooking show would do. Kids playing their games, the ones that make sense only to them and the serious way they get it (specially if a little girl is having tea party LOL). I often get it when i have no interest in something someone is doing but he does it with its full attention and his complete being... so honest and fair... that triggers it big time.
Other than that, i often feel it while in library studying or when a realy dear person is next to me or talkiing to me (it not sexual whatsoever)... when combing somebodys hair (specialy if it is a girl) or when somebody is combing my hair... and many other situation
Also, i get spontaneously every now and then

I was always sure that i could do it on purpose and willingly but had never had real idea to actually do it till tonight. Today i tried it and it was complete succes. I relaxed myself, lying still... And so, i directed all my thoughts on the place of my scalp i want to tingle... i took me about 30 seconds to achieve my head orgasm. AIHO right?

Anyways, i would really like to know, now when I am sure I can induce it willingly, if this state has any good or bad sidefects... Its purpose (pschyologically, phisiologically and energeticly). Can it contribute to my wellbeing??
I talked to this guy once and he told me that its seratonin input in our brain... at the moment i wasnt quite sure that was it.

please, respond to my post, help me. If anybody wants to know details of how to willingly induce it, ask me.

cheers, my friends

I had the very same reaction when a friend of mine started to draw me unprompted. The sound of the charcoal against the paper made the feeling even more intense.

Yes, I get this all the time too! I remember the first time it happened when i was real little, I was in a barber shop waiting to get my hair cut, and I was reading a book. The kid next to me asked if he could see it, and when I gave it to him and he started looking at it, I got the sensation. From that point on, whenever someone looks at or uses something that belongs to me, that's the biggest trigger for me. Another one that gets me all the time these days is when one of my friends uses my laptop. My roomie asked me if she could borrow my computer yesterday, and the whole time she was using it, the sensation went wild. The sound of someone else typing on it just sends me into heaven. I want to know what this is called!

Yes I can turn it on or off but only when watching someone reading and with each turn of the page it intensifies.

god this is crazy. i always wondered if other people got it an when i told my sister about it she thought i was crazy. im only 17 and ive been getting it for the last couple years. i sort of enjoy the sensation but have no control over it. my usual triggers are someone touching me gently or focusing on someone completing a task usually related to me and usually drawing.

im very curious to see what neurologists have to say about this

Hi, I experience this too! It's happened my whole life but only in the last few years have I thought that it might be something unusual. My main triggers are other people borrowing things off me, others drawing, having my hair played with and especially being shown how to do something. The most intense experience recently was when someone was pointing out mistakes in a piece of my work, they had a foreign accent as well which I think helped.
I can bring on an extremely mild sensation by imagining it occuring and find I can prolong the feeling by concentrating on it.
I would love to know more information but it's not an easy thing to google!
I have no significant medical history, 20 year old female from UK, average-high IQ, only child so quite introverted but I would say quite in tune with others emotions.

I'm a 30 year old female. No known cause of the described, eh, condition (one of the best 'conditions' I've ever had, personally). The sensation is typically voluntary - I can cause it when I choose, unless under significant distress, distraction, or under the influence of something (though I do not drink or do drugs, but have taken pain meds for injuries that impair my control). However, in some cases, the sensation can be involuntary, and is often, when triggered this way, very intense. I believe the triggers are typically something I am interested, intrigued, or otherwise touched by (non-physically, that is). I can, however, often quicken the sensation by touching the top of my head - this helps me to focus, and allows me to quickly begin the sensation/process.

The sensation itself, for anyone who does no experience it, is similar to the tingling and euphoric feeling of an orgasm, but slightly different, and very much decentralized from the genitals or other points. For me, it typically starts at the top of my head, and will travel down my spine and limbs. Occasionally, it will 'jump' over spots. I've even experienced a localized version in just one limb or area (again, I must reiterate this is not stemming from the genitals :) I'm talking arms, legs, maybe the middle of my torso). The feeling often alleviates agitation, frustration, or other negative, physically manifested symptoms of stress, and I use it for just that when I feel the need to 'flush' out my system. When the sensation is especially strong, I find myself fairly incapacitated, and I do not want to move or speak or interact in any fashion until the sensation is complete.

In short, it feels damn good. Really damn good. :D

As for other possible links mentioned, I have a higher than average IQ, I often feel I am empathetic but not controlled by my emotions or my emotional response to others, I have no religious or spiritual affiliation other than my own self, I am technologically and artistically inclined, I dislike causing pain in other living things, and I manage a fairly reasonable level of social interaction. I do, however, have one other oddity - I can, if I choose, see glowing colors around things. I do not suffer from other symptoms that would suggest serious trauma or stigma to the brain, but I'm considering requesting an MRI or CAT scan for my own sake. I realize all this sounds very esoterically motivated, but I am strongly inclined towards logic, and insist on maintaining integrity in my own personal beliefs. I cannot assume things in good conscience. Therefore, I'm at a loss for an explanation I would pass on to others, but I'm absolutely delighted, and feeling just a little less alone for once, having found all these entries. :)

Oh, and it's not piloerection. Thanks anyway. No goosebumps. Very internal. However, I have noticed when I'm touching something significant, the portion of my body touching (perhaps lying on a couch, leaning on a wall, etc. - anything of fair size, and not just clothing or item in hand) will be effectively 'grounded'. The sensation does not occur in those areas fully in contact. The exception is during extremely intense sessions.

So, also, to those experiencing this under their control - try this when you *are* orgasming ;) Completely paralyzed with the stimuli. Very agreeable.

Cant belive there are no explanations for this. Been googling all day. I experience this mostly when watching someone write/fill out forms, it feels like prickles all over head

I think about it alot, but my efforts to find similarity in all triggers people mention are fruitless.
I have found that the term "act of unconscious dedication" cant describe many of them. But there are these examples which dont make any sense like: foreign accents, speech defects, loud breathing and such...
I also think people who expirience this are empathic and sympathetic, lets say, the very opposite of psychopats. Intelligence also makes no difference from what Ive read... My opinion is that it has to do something with spiritual characteristic of a person (but thats completley unscientific...). The position of sensation corresponds to the position of crown chakra which (in many spiritual traditions) stands for (among other things) the universal consciousness and unity. That makes sense if what I said above, about people who get this sensation being sympathetic and empathic, is true.

for the 30 yearold lady above: I really think you know what you are saying and I would like to learn to spread this sensation on other parts of my body as you can. I have tried but failed. I can make it happen at will but only in a period that is not stresfull to me

WOW! I'm not alone. I've had this for as long as i can remember. AIHO is the best term that could describe it.

I get it when people draw me (I am an artist so I have been drawn a lot in classes and by artist friends...) . When people read me stories. And recently a friend sent me a story that was loosely based on me and even that set it off! (it was the thing that lead me to search for it FINALLY).

It seems like whenever care is focused toward me is when it happens the most, but there are times when it happens in other ways. Someone said Bob Ross above... yup.

I'm so freaking happy to have found you guys.
