Keep getting this feeling, what is it?

@Sorena_
I am sorry this will probably sound corny (if not also stupid), but when this happens next time, you should try to be genuinely happy (with a true happy smile on your face) and why not proud ("cool, I did it")... You'd be surprised how much that may change.

(sometimes happens as well from other emotions, such as love or sadness)

Getting more should not be a goal. You probably will, but it really doesn't matter (yes, you read me right, no joking). Sensing subtleties, sensing more, enjoying more is where the unlimited progresses are possible and what opens the chest of true rewards.

So 'yes' then... 🙂

Only joking! Well the only frustration i feel is when i give in to masturbate traditionally. I am happy when i get these ramp up's, it is a different dimension to the experience. But being happy with them indefinitely will likely be difficult, but i take them as they come, for now, no problem.

I think you take me wrong.

I mean, like when you reach that famous 90%, suddenly be really really happy... Not just fine.

Ok i can do that too, can i ask what you expect to happen?

I agree with just being happy in the moment with what you are feeling. Afterwards it's ok to feel disappointment if your session was a dud, but don't let it affect you while you are in a session and feeling good. What you described sounds exactly like how my super o began and it just kept getting more and more intense. I understand your frustration at the 90% level you are feeling as I'm getting to that level almost every time now. Just have to keep plugging away and refining your technique and I assume eventually we will both get better and it will become easier to drift off into super o territory.

Also, there really isn't an edge. It is more of a steep incline that you just keep climbing.

@orgazmo I never, nor do i ever, feel bad in sessions as i have stated before its only post session do i feel such things and even then only very rarely. My last one was many hours, nearly a day post session.

Maybe I'm weird, but my emotions never went into happiness. My mind was more in a state of mild terror. Apprehension. Cautious curiosity. Like a prey animal frozen in place, watching something across the prarie creep closer.

Yes, you can expect more. More of what, exactly, is left open. More intensity, more frequency, more slime-soaked bedsheets, more wanting more, more of something you might not even want.

In my case, my appetite for being teased has grown enormously. Anticipation of release is no less satisfying than release itself. My hateful, treacherous body perpetually torments me with reminders of my sexual nature, and threatens to reveal my secrets to those around me. My life is transformed into a divine agony.

My two cents- sometimes when I am on the cusp of superOing, I hold my breath or breath non-rhythmically as in deep then shallow hold deep hold shallow. I find that breathing pattern or flat out holding of breath can hinder going over the edge.

I suggest that semi-deep slow rhythmic breaths even when you are about to O your brains out helps the process.

So you feel there is an 'edge' ?

For me there is an edge and I cross over. The resulting O after crossing over has evolved over the past year to be different things but yes... An edge and there is something at the other side.

Read my past posts for examples. They are kind of old but still valid

@JMchemist and @Sorena_ for me there is also a definite edge over which there is a definite state of orgasm. You are either in it or you are not.

Perhaps it is just the conscious experience of it and we are all in a state of orgasm all the time and don't know it. My opinion remains that in practice for most of us it is all or nothing. I just can't understand this 'everything is an orgasm' thing either. I share your frustration.

I had a dud session last night so feeling a bit negative again today.

@Sorena_ how long are your sessions lasting for?

@Sorena_ how long are your sessions lasting for?

If one is going well about 1hr-1:30, however when I'm over excited its usually only 15-30 mins. Hence why i think they need to be longer (without forcing them i mean, i just need to give them more of a chance)

I also didn't want to say this here in case it led to more discussion on the subject but i feel i have made a real faux pa here... when i said "90% of an orgasm" i didn't mean 90% of the feelings of an orgasm, but rather I get all the signposts of such that makes me think it is one about to happen. So for example, a hard erection builds, heart rate goes up etc etc. I realise this was a poor choice of words. It is NOT 90% of an orgasm, my apologies.


I think that smudge fish is right, there is a definite edge, but please don't imagine it to be some cliff top with a huge fall of pleasure on the other side, it is more like a "blockage" and i can clearly identify it with @rumels guide here:

Saying there is an edge can be kind of deceiving as people are looking for that same edge as a traditional orgasm. There is an edge in a sense that you are either in orgasm or not, but nothing like a traditional orgasm. I visualize it as more of a mountain you are climbing and the super o starts at the base. Not incredibly strong feelings at first, but you keep climbing and it gets stronger and stronger until you are in a state of bliss. More experienced and skilled users are able to climb this mountain easier with more frequency, while others (me included) are still trying to scope out the climb and get our footing. Sometimes we can climb it easily, while other times the conditions change and it seems impossible. We just need to become more aware of the conditions of the "Super O Mountain" to make our ascent into bliss easier and more frequent.

I know that was kind of vague and a weird analogy, but I couldn't really think of anything else to use to describe the super o in a visual sense.

Thats a good analogy orgazmo, the part where you mention "climbing and climbing and it getting stronger and stronger until you are in a state of bliss" is very good! the only part i was missing was the bliss part, it was just the 'climb'.

'Edge' is definitely not the right word, but it seems to be the only one I can find that sort of explains it.

From the sound of it, you made it too the base of the mountain (beginning of super o), but you just haven't figured out how to climb yet. I'm in the same boat other than just blind luck last time. I'm thinking one technique may be successful for one session, but may not be successful for the next one ie. the changing conditions. I think this is where the "pleasure trumps all" comes in. We can't get hung up on something just because it worked once. Just have to let the pleasure be our guide to the super o climb. Just my opinion though take it for what it's worth.

I think I may do a session tonight if I'm not tired, and I'm going to try some visualization techniques with that analogy I gave and see if that does anything. Always willing to try new things even if they are unorthodox.

IM going to try a reverse kegel/pushing out feeling. I just want to stress that last time i felt this i wasn't thinking or analysing, i was just passively enjoying. In fact i had a big smile on my face. So it may sound like I'm 'there' I'm enjoying it, don't get me wrong! But there is more, somewhere.

Alternating rectal (pushing out) and anal contractions (pulling in) is what led to my super o. I combined the rectal contractions with breathing in, and anal contractions with breathing out. Eventually I got into a rhythm and the auto fuck got started and I was off. Unfortunately I haven't been able to replicate that for some reason.

Recognizing the signposts can be a bit dodgy sometimes. It's a bit like realizing you're dreaming and that you can do anything you like in your dream. As soon as you start to fly alla superman you wake up thanks to being over excited.

Or in the case of "getting over the edge" with your aneros...your session just fizzles out as soon as you hit "base camp". I get the whole "there is no edge thing" because you just have to just let it happen like there isn't an edge.
