A full-body feeling, almost like weed high

Are you on your way to an SO? Yes, you're on your way to a super orgasm. Also, that's the wrong question. You may never cross a definite line between super orgasm and not super orgasm. Instead there will be highs and lows in your sexual journey. One week you will have great experience after great experience. Another week you will again not get any sensation. At some point your lows will not be so low and your highs will be so high that you may label your experience as a super orgasm.

It is pointless to think of trying to repeat an experience. For all experiences you have, think of them as a one-off. I've never had the same awesome experience twice, I've only had unique awesome experiences... I wish I could repeat some experiences, don't get be wrong! lol

Also, don't think you are not getting any sensation. Just having something in your butt comes with sensation. It may not be anything special, it may not be pleasurable or orgasmic, but there is something. When you have "no sensation" as you call it, focus on the sensation of just having something inside you. Appreciate that you can even feel that. Explore in your mind the sensation, try to think of all the spots your toy is hitting, break them up into as tiny of pieces tiny pieces as you want, then put it back together.

Sphincter, anal canal
Top sphincter vs bottom sphincter, shallow vs deep anal canal
left/right/top/bottom sphincter, top/bottom/shallow/deep canal

You can break it up as much as you want.
Put it back together and think of the entire feeling at once.
Then do a light kegel and think of the all the sensations of the small movement and small pressure that causes.

When you feel nothing, feel this. Then you will not complain about not feeling something. And that positivity will keep your sexual journey progressing. Edit: Make it your goal to feel just the simple presence of the toy. If you've done that, you have succeeded. You will succeed every time.

Ok.. one thing I would try if this was me,when things get good,don’t flex harder,just keep the same pace/power and ride that wave,and every so often relax the contractions to see if they continue involuntarily. It can and will amplify by itself,hence the ‘not forcing it’ advice. Just try not to get too distracted by it. Although ppl say focus on it,you can focus too much on contractions,breathing etc.
Also,play around a bit with it,I discovered in the early days bouncing my bum on the bed a little,like a gyrate or thrust,not much,but it did yield new sensations. Try pushing as well as pulling in your contractions.
When you say,you’d implode,that’s arousal amplifying in a good way,In time,you’ll hopefully discover you don’t need someone’s fingers to make the implosion happen.
In regards to your last point.. Yes I think you should have a session tonight,have one every night if your single. Practice makes perfect,it worked for me.
On top of an active sex life,I have a couple of Aneros session per week,plus I a-less everyday now,maybe at work,maybe in the shower. I discovered on my journey,the prostates capabilities are virtually limitless,I’ve had super-o the same days as sex,mmo a-less pretty much everyday. Kaygo,you just have to believe.

P.s If your using external stimuli such as sound hypno,Porn,beats etc.
skip em for a while,try using nothing but you and see if you can move forward.

It is pointless to think of trying to repeat an experience. For all experiences you have, think of them as a one-off. I've never had the same awesome experience twice, I've only had unique awesome experiences... I wish I could repeat some experiences, don't get be wrong! lol

Funny you should mention that, right after I talk about a weed high. I spent forever trying to get that same really good high I got the first time. I've accepted now that I can't ever get there again, so I'm just trying to keep a balance between feeling good and not building a tolerance.

Also funny you should mention that. One of the things I'm working on in therapy is the fact that a lot of the things that used to bring me joy, well they don't, not since I started thinking about how it's pointless to enjoy these things on my own and without someone to share them with on a personal, heartfelt level. Kinda like Adam, "I got all this neat stuff, but no one to share with". Doc says it's a "desire for codependency", whatever that means.

Back on topic, notes taken: Visualise the Aneros and which tissues it's making contact with, the smooth muscles moving around it, etc.; Try to get in a session every night. I'm assuming that means take a break after an hour or two if it doesn't go anywhere.

I've used marijuana countless times over two years, yet my most amazing marijuana experience was just yesterday. I'm using marijuana to amplify my already high arousal state rather than using it to be a "singular source for my high". There's something to be said about your brain learning to utilize drugs so that lower doses give powerful experiences, which helps tolerance issues and having to "chase the high".

Here's my journal entry for my Aneros + marijuana experience:

At the beginning of the night I went to bed with aneros, which allowed the aneros to stimulate me before I fell asleep and for hours while I slept, causing my arousal to skyrocket.

Another interesting thing that happened is that I entered a half-sleep daze in the morning for a minute, felt like my brain was being electrocuted, couldn't move or open my eyes, and felt like my whole body was vibrating (from electrocution). It was intensely pleasurable, but scary. I had to actively let go of the fear that I needed medical attention. Turns out I was completely fine and just experiencing that spot halfway between dreaming and being awake.

p.s. I only use Aneros at night and just try to sleep with it in, with plenty of petroleum jelly as lube. It solves the issues of relaxation (sleeping puts you in a relaxed state), time (we have hours of time!), trying to make something happen (your only concern is sleep), yeah it works for me. Some nights nothing interesting happens. Other nights wild.

I mean I haven't had any pot in years, but I don't think I ever had an experience like that. I've been using Albolene instead of petrojel, it gets pretty darn slippy.

Then I started feeling something I never felt before. It was a full body feeling, almost like a weed buzz, just like the title says. It was also kind of a ticklish feeling. Not quite "pins and needles my leg has fallen asleep and is waking up" feeling, but definitely a feeling of being sensitive to touch. Like if I weren't doing this solo and someone were to run his fingers down my chest, I'd probably implode.

Does this sound familiar to anyone? Am I making any headway to a SO? I want to try again immediately tonight, but from everything I read, that kind of enthusiasm is exactly the wrong approach to take.

@kaygo That sounds very familiar. Buzz, tingle, whatever you like to call it. The key phrase was "I started feeling something I never felt before". I still remember how surprised and amazed I was more than a decade ago, after some 6 to 12 months of practice and experimentation when that first little something happened. Little could I imagine back then what an amazing journey it would be. And still is!

I often find myself wishing I could delete words like Super-O, mini-O, dry-O etc from this forum. They all contribute to creating expectations, and expectations can be a real deal breaker. My preferred term is pleasurable sensation. If you feel som kind of sensation that is pleasurable, enjoy it! Go with it! Don't overanalyze it.

Patience is one of the keys to success. Letting go of expectations another. As strange as it may sound initially, it's not so much about making things happen as it is about allowing them to happen.

@neros wrote a fantastic post once titled The Myth of Super Orgasm. I suggest you read it.

@kaygo That is the exact same type of sensations I get. I've had 2 awesome orgasms where the tingling was exactly like when a limb falls asleep and starts to wake up with a vengeance, starting localized to my groin area than expanding out encompassing my entire body, even my teeth tingled. I sank into the do nothing and just kept relaxing trying to maintain a steady breathing pattern allowing those feelings to take over, and boy did they. On one of them I felt almost paralyzed and didn't dare try to move (not that I wanted to) possibly making the sensation go away. I didn't ask if it was a SO and I don't really care to know but I will tell you I hope to get back there again.

3 more quick pieces of advice:

1. The "do nothing" technique is the best technique IMO, because my understanding of orgasmic energy is that it wants to pleasure you like a masseur, just wants you to relax and enjoy the ride. And sometimes there won't be an exciting sensation, that's part of the journey, part of learning not to reach for something.

2. For the feeling exercise the main point is to have gratitude for whatever sensation you feel.

3. Orgasmic energy is loving and forgiving. If you make a mistake like pushing for an outcome or moving when you shouldn't have and suddenly a sensation disappears, whatever your mistake, know that you are forgiven. Love your mistakes, love the learning process, know that mistakes are not mistakes but happy accidents (thanks Bob Ross), the orgasmic energy is there to lead you by the hand with love and playfulness.

When I make a so-called "mistake" I might laugh it off "oops, sorry! Let me try again. Ok relaxing, relaxing". And the energy laughs with me and then I continue to feel sensation.

I wonder do newbies ever get tired of the ‘dont have expectations’ line..how can someone say they went out,bought a prostate massager,after hearing about prostate pleasure and handsfree orgasms,put it in their ass,but wasn’t expecting anything to happen?..:p So they just did it for nothing?

Don't have expectations... because it's impossible to know your mind and body works. It's not that you should expect nothing to happen, it's that you're looking, feeling, paying attention to whatever is actually happening or whatever sensations arise instead of having preconceptions that will cause you to miss the very subtle hints that direct you to the path of orgasm. It takes time to realize that thing that feels like nothing is actually something, or that thing that doesn't feel like pleasure is a precursor to pleasure, or that emotion you feel is not just your mood, but part of the process of awakening.

The first time I felt non-penile pleasure I thought it was just my imagination, that's how subtle it was. Noobs should pay attention when they question whether something is just your imagination.

Well it happened again. I was out hiking on the beach, and around mile six, I felt a twinge or a pinch in my butt, like someone thumped my prostate with his finger. I thought it was just a muscle spasm at first, but then I felt that same buzz spreading out from there. I remember what you guys said, and focused on relaxing into that sensation. I slowed down my walk, and pictured my glutes rolling my prostate around like two hands rolling around a crystal ball, left to right and back with each step. I'm not sure how long I managed to keep it going, but it was long enough.

I'm aware I'm not a master by any means, but getting this to happen twice in three days, once without an Aneros in, and being able to let go just that little bit, well that's going to make the next several sessions a lot less frustrating. It's nothing like those fullbody, convulsive orgasms I see vids of, but every one of the little ones is another shackle unlocked.

Well there you go,you see progress happening,it may go up in stages and plateaus like a lot of guys,it did for me,just keep going,one of the tricks is to remain positive..And you should find it gets easier and quicker to get back to any milestones,at least that was the case for me.

I mean that's really all I wanted, was validation. A payoff. Now I know I'm not wasting my time, and that makes everything better.

Prostate thumps. I like that term. I recently recognized a few prostate thumps for myself.

@Korkelz I agree with you that every experience is a one-off, in that one can not have the same expectations twice in a row, even with the same means, whether it be the same toy/position/technique or same drug/situation. However one can always employ the same means to try to get to a similar (or higher) state. That is experience and technique. Just like with anything, and as is repeated over and over here, high expectations can lead to disappointment.

@kaygo I experiment (for scientific purposes) with all sorts of interesting drugs (expect marijuana, which I makes me paranoid) and I find that many of my most incredible highs with aneros have shared aspects of certain drug highs. It sounds like you are making progress in the time of these last couple posts... maybe soon you’ll graduate to class-A drug sensations 🙂

Prostate thumps. I like that term. I recently recognized a few prostate thumps for myself.

Yeah, it was just a sharp ache real quick. I thought it was a spasm or maybe just gas at first.

maybe soon you’ll graduate to class-A drug sensations 🙂

Careful, we don't want Aneros to become a Schedule 1 drug.

@Korkelz ahah honestly given the possibility of addiction and the euphoric highs, seems like that is the next logical step. It could even make it more popular, and more sexy, if it were forbidden. I’m gonna jump on a plane now and fly internationally smuggling 4 aneros toys into the shengen zone. I know just the place to hide them, too. Wish me luck 😉
