I wanted to provide an update on what's going on. Most of this is anerosless/KSMO related but I thought it would be interesting to some. Also, the KSMO forum is not nearly as active as this one. In fact, most of the responses I've gotten from people there are from people who frequency this forum.
First, an aneros update. I tried my helix again a week or so ago after not having used it for a few weeks. The session was fairly unremarkable. I thought that perhaps my other experiences would have opened up some new doors with the aneros, but apparently not.
I am having incredible anerosless experiences these days. The key sound is working quite well. However, of late, I am able to generate very intense feelings by just doing the breathing that accompanies the making of the sound. I do find that as arousal increases, making the sound (sometimes very loudly) really amplifies things. I also seem to be able to very easily get things going without any sound or special breathing. I just think and feelings immediately rush in. I can go from nothing to very intense feelings in, literally, 30 seconds. In fact, sometimes these rushes of feelings are most intense at the start of a session. In other words, I get this massive rush, followed by 5 minutes of lower intensity. If I stop for 10 minutes or so, the cycle often repeats. It's almost like my body stores up some energy and releases it in a burst right at the start.
Over the last couple of weeks, I've had many incredible sessions that have left me groaning and tingling all over. Having said that, I'd describe most of the feelings as very very intense p-waves (very very) in that they build up and hang out at an intense level. I can hold them there for quite a long time. I don't think of these as orgasms because there's no build up and "explosion". However, my session last night was a little different. I spent about a 1/2 hour and felt things that I'd probably call dry-o's. There was a build up and a feeling of release. No ejaculation (of course), no muscle contractions, no erection. But, they took my breath away and had me grunting and panting. Soon after, I decided I needed to go to bed. As I relaxed in bed, I felt 2 or 3 very intense dry-o's. All through the night, I mostly dozed and was under a semi-constant feeling of arousal with regular mini-o's mixed in. This morning, I woke up aroused and had mini-o's while walking around getting ready for work, in the shower, even just standing around. Even now (4 hours later), I'm feeling constant low grade p-waves. If I focus on the feelings and think sexually, I can intensify the feeling very easily. I think if I had some privacy, I'm sure I could ramp things up quickly. Truly amazing…
A few more notes:
I still am finding that looking at porn really helps crank things up. I can do without, but I do enjoy including porn.
Also, I have been ending most of my sessions with an ejaculation even though the KSMO advice is not to. The recent exception is last night. This probably explains why I didn't sleep much and am having this extended session (more than 12 hours at this point).
I'm even more convinced that my path to ecstasy is not Aneros, but what I'm doing now. Of course, I will always credit my aneros use with opening the door. For this, I will be forever grateful.
