WHAT IS ASMR & HOW IT HAS HELPED ME

This is something rather different from me today! One, because I normally focus on travel but, two, because this is all relatively new to me and people don’t seem to get it? But, I thought that if its helping me, it could potentially help others too and even if it was just one person then, my job here is done!

Mental illnesses run in our family and know the feeling of my heart wanting to explode out of my chest, having days when I haven’t been able to eat a morsel of food due to worrying to the extremes of binge eating to try to ease my internal pains.

But, recently I’ve felt even more relaxed than normal and I feel like I owe a lot of that to ASMR.
