  • In this spiritual successor to the original 2017 video (here: • ASMR for Anxious, Worr... ), I try ease your mind of any anxiety and stress through personal interaction, exploring the aural minutiae of various objects, and by sharing some of my own life experiences and knowledge. Hopefully this will help you relax, sleep, experience ASMR, and most importantly get you back to a better state of mind.

    My younger brother passed on in 2018 when he was 16. You were his favorite ASMR channel. He just adored your videos and creativity. Tonight is the first time I’ve been able to watch one of your vids since his passing. Cool to know you are still helping relax people

      Then go to Jesus my friend. I met him on 09/16/22 and he changed everything. I struggled with panic attacks, anxiety, fear, and many other emotions. Those still persist but they don’t control me anymore. If I could have you do a single thing: Open a Bible, preferably physical but a phone works, and read the Gospel of John. That’s it. If you truly seek the Lord you will find him, I know this because I was searching and I did find him. The shift in mentality is drastic, and it’s nothing I could even attempt to fake. The warmth of the Holy Spirit is real :D

    Over 2 years watching your channel. I’m transitioning into an adult. You’ve lived longer than me. I’m worried about letting go of the past. I’m deleting twitter and Instagram accounts for what ever reason just because I am filled with unnecessary hate towards some things. My mom always sends me inspirational videos on Instagram everyday, which is the only good part about the app so far. It’s just that the things on those accounts are some people I’ve met in the past. I will keep TH-cam so I can listen to you. School is difficult, i now have trust issues. Everything I do on this rock sphere, nobody will know my name in future generations. When I’m dead and forgotten, what will be the point of it all? Will getting good grades so I can get a good job, only for money which helps my future family satisfy me? I go to a Catholic School. I just, am lost. It’s late I need sleep. That’s why I’m here thank you Ephemeral Rift.

      I don't know if you are looking for advice or want any. But I will say you have to find your own meaning in life. Who cares if anyone remembers you? If that is what you want you can always strive for fame. But all that really matters is what YOU want from this life you are given. Look for things, explore things, venture into the deepest parts of the internet finding that which you care about and grasp onto it and enjoy it! Life does suck. But it seems like fewer people acknowledge that life is actually really fun too! I relate to you a lot from what you said. And I feel you. And I also know that it's okay to be lost. I hope you find something that reignites that spark in your soul to find your own meaning in life. There is so much out there in the world.

      is being remembered really that important? Just live in a way you can be proud of. How do you do that? Work hard. It doesn't matter what it is that you work hard at, (although something like training your mind/body would be the most beneficial) because in the end you'll be proud of yourself . Why? because that's how humans work. Also, whats the point of worrying about your future family when your kids will be doing just as much worrying as you, hah. Hope you had an incredible sleep, one month ago.
      Also, if you go to a catholic school, and you're a believer, wouldn't living for God be enough?

    This videos predecessor is my favorite video of yours, and has helped me relax more times that I can tell you. Was beyond excited to see the title, and the familiar background.

    i remember finding your channel when i was 15, i’m 20 now and you have pulled me out of a few overwhelming scary anxiety attacks that cause my heart to quite literally beat rapidly out of my chest. mad respect for what you do, you’ve created such a safe space filled with comfort. sending a big virtual hug🫶

    I thought "ASMR for anxious worrying and ruminating minds" was the best video to help me calm down, but I think ER is doing even better. thank you for helping me.

    I am so grateful that you made this. I rewatch the first version of this quite often and actually was going to watch it last night, but instead I fell asleep to another one of your videos. Now I'm laying here with insomnia, woke up and can't get back to sleep, so it's really nice to have your company so my mind doesn't start winding up and overthinking 💖💖

    this is why I appreciate Paul so much since he's creativity is like on another level but just as simple as a video for anxiety or to help sleep is still the best!(all I'm missing is more ear to ear whispering videos with a mic that you can hear kinda hear white noise.)

    This is going to sound odd, especially since I'm commenting this late after you'd posted this, but watching through this felt like a conversation with my father. I don't see him often at all anymore, and listening to you talk me through my problems felt like I was sitting down with him as a kid again and talking away my worries. You helped me a lot, thank you.

Thank you, I had tears because I feel such a difference, I’ll still have anxiety here and there but overall this helps me.

    I haven’t been a subscriber for a huge amount of time but I think I found your videos probably two years ago (my mind is a bit fuzzy when it comes to remembering things) however I just wanted to say that this video has become one of my absolute favorites in the past few months. I constantly fret and worry over the tiniest things and I tend to let them consume me, whether I mean to or not. Life has also had its fair share of issues lately and it doesn’t help to have such bad anxiety and fear, dread that makes my chest too tight. This last spell of anxiety had been coming and going for about an hour or so, to a point that I didn’t even want to leave my room today. I can’t thank you enough for taking the time to make a video like this, your words are so reassuring and encouraging. I don’t have many people in my life who manage to make me feel so at ease, even if it’s just a voice on the screen, pre recorded.. I didn’t mean to ramble and I’m not even sure if you’ll take the time to read this silly comment, but thank you. ❤

I love her, and I want to do the best I can to make sure that she knows I'm safe but sometimes I can't do anything at all.
