"Frisson (French for 'shiver') is a sensation somewhat like shivering, usually caused by stimuli. It is typically expressed as an overwhelming emotional response combined with piloerection (goosebumps)."

Have you ever read something that caused you to experience frisson?

When was the last time you experienced frisson and from what?

Have you ever listened to a song that caused you to experience musical frisson? If so, what song?

I have experienced musical frission when listening to Everlast - What It's Like since I was a little kid, and it still makes me experience musical frisson to this day.

I have also been experiencing frisson more frequently after reading things like text messages that are directed towards me.

What about a tingle of fuzzy stuff all over you that gives you warmth and disappears. Is that the same? I have that.

Yes. What has caused you to experience that feeling?

This may sounds a little creepy, but I like to go out on walks around the time when it's mostly dark outside, so people have lights on inside the homes, but haven't closed the blinds yet. When I walk past and glance inside, I get a sense of the kind of atmosphere in the room there, and occasionally when someone's living room looks really cosy to me, I get that shiver feeling.

Other than that, I occasionally get pee shivers, as do many of us, I imagine.

Listening to disturbs indestructible video, when the women soldier is running in the open blasting an m16, it happened about 3 times at that exact part. When I was in jail I had heavy pressure like fuzziness and it felt very powerful, but it still went away. I could feel this presence that was very addicting. I learned a breathing exercise that if you breath in your nose, hold it, then release it from your mouth you can get this feeling, which eventually gave me 2 seizures. But other times it's comfortable and feels good. Having compassion on yourself while curled up in bed I could release it. One time it went into my brain and gave me a sexually charged fuzzy pleasure. I believe in something else protecting me, and I just give in to its comfort and I usually feel it.

This one gives me shivers.

The last time I had frisson I was... you know what, too much information. Disregard.

I usually get that when I look at good art and listen to music at the same time. It's not common, but it happens.

Have you ever felt like the people inside could see you?

Usually I only do sideways glances to prevent just that, but on rare occasions I've made eye contact with someone, which just makes me feel pretty embarrassed.

Every time this song (a remake) comes on, I experience this. It's happened all four times now. I have the song on repeat. What a wild experience.

Here's a weird ass article about frisson.
