I've never been a big fan of this but id love to understand the mindset.

I understand being tied and tickled helplessly, but going a step further. Blindfold, gag and potentially hours of tickling till you pass out.

What exactly is it about pushing yourself past your limit that is so rewarding? From my own personal experience things like this tend to just scar me so if you are into hard-core tickling. What is it that you love about it?
 
I'll take a stab at answering this! I'm a male lee and I love/hate being tickle tortured. I write hardcore tickling fics with male victims because I like to see myself in that place.

I think it's masochism. I'm extremely ticklish. When I'm tickled, it pings a part of the brain that says "DANGER" and "ESCAPE!" But if I'm tied up, I can't. It's exciting. It's the same thing that makes people love skydiving or riding roller coasters, I think. I like that completely helpless feeling, being at someone else's mercy. It's awful, but it's fun at the same time.

Being pushed past the point of tolerance adds to that excitement. It's also very physically stimulating and combines well with sexual experiences, if you know what I mean.
 
Sensory deprivation and humiliation. It goes beyond just plain tickling and more into BDSM territory. Some people get turned on by complete submission and loss of control.

Whether you pass out from it or not, I guess that depends on the person. Some can take a lot of torture. But that's where respecting one's boundaries comes in. :)
 
I like all kinds of tickling, but there's something about a more intense session that amps up a lot of the aspects of tickling I like. It also kind of serves as a way to release suppressed emotions and tension or stress, at least for me.
 
For me it is the feeling i get while being tickled and after too. The endorphin release it gives me feels so good.
 
I'll echo what most have said here. It's cathartic. It's putting your trust into the hands of someone who will take you to the limits, and over them, and stopping only when it is time.
 
Yeah i agree with the masochism point. Intense tickle torture is a subset of BDSM and you see the same physiological response seen when someone is whipped or burnt or otherwise put in physical distress. I can tell you from experience as an extremely ticklish sub that it is indeed physical distress. When I am tied up and tickled for hours, it is literal torture. But going through that panic and pain, that is where the fun happens. As the power exchange and sadomasochistic acts continue, the sub's brain releases large amounts of endorphins and cortisol. The cortisol can put the sub into a state where their mind and body are somewhat disconnected and they can experience subspace which includes feelings of floating, peacefulness, time distortion, and living in the here and now. Adrenaline is also released so I know for me at least, I get really hyper and giddy during points in a session. Now endorphins are the jimmy jam in my book. They are chemically very closely related to morphine. So you get enough of those babies floating around your brain and you are gonna feel a high more euphoric and intense than any drug will give you. Ride the dragon, my friend! Hope this helps answer your question. Stay weird!
 
The release is definitely a huuuuge piece. For me, I’d compare it to taking a leisurely walk with the dog vs. doing an hour of targeted cardio and a whole body workout. Is taking a walk nice? Sure. But when you really push your body and mind you are completely wrecked at the end (in a good way) and your stress is relieved in a way that you can’t compare with anything else.

The BDSM portion factors in as well, as sonnymadler/Tickledpinknola mentioned. I think there is plenty of folks here who like maybe a little bondage, but just light tickling and teasing to get turned on. Whereas myself and many others enjoy it as part of a larger urge to push our limits and see how much we can take. All the elements that were mentioned: sensory deprivation, tickling until we literally can’t take it anymore (and then continuing in some cases), etc. just increase the endorphin and adrenaline rush, and take you outside of yourself in a way that playful tickling doesn’t.

There is definitely a level of escapism in there, too. When I am pushed to my absolute limits there is nothing else I can even FATHOM thinking about other than the sensations and stress I am being put through that very moment. It’s lovely, and is like a mini vacation from my own brain (if that makes sense).
 
I LOVE intense tickling. But HATE blindfolds, ball gags, intense bondage, awkward weird bondage, vibrators, mixing tickling with pain. I hate all that bullshit. Tickling is ENOUGH goddammit.

It makes a lot of sense Sharkiegirl. I love when I am pushed to my breaking point, the endorphin release and stress relief really help. I feel so good after that I still want more ;) Like you said it really is like a vacation from my brain makes me forget the other things running around in it for a while :)

I hear you there too Shining Ice. I suggest some bondage for me due to my reactions and not wanting to hurt the ler, but all the other stuff I also don't like. Would rather just have a nice intense tickling without all the extra stuff too.
 
I really like your response. Intense tickling of a lee has always been a turn on for me.
 
We did intense tickling because our lees were not sensitive only a bit
We prefer sensitive lee and light tickles it can be so intense too

yes the light tickles are what really drives me mad, and gets very intense as the tickling goes on longer
 
Wow, some great responses to this thread.
A few years ago I joined the local BDSM community to explore tickling including the more hardcore aspect. Not only did I make some great friends, but I learned a lot as well. The psychological aspect of being pushed to your limit, and the bodies responses to that are quite incredible. It's personal preference of course, but hardcore tickling can be an incredible journey of endorphins, energy, and subsequent subspace for those willing to strap in for the ride. ;)

I'm with you on that.
Tickling is a universe itself.
Intense tickling is a wonderful part in it.

I'd be happy if we had at least one Tickling Forum somewhere, not mixed with sex, pain, vibrators. So we could share and discuss pure tickling interest, and won't be considered some part of porno
 
I will admit (as I am sure it is with others here) that my love for tickling and my desire for it is layered and a bit complicated. I will also admit that in the 38 (WOW) years that I have been aware of my love for tickling, it has certainly evolved.

Besides just the warmth, intensity, and excitement from the touch, I love the utter loss of control. I love the power exchange, the helplessness, the joy, the danger, the force, the release..... But I love the intimacy of these moments, so I'm only willing to go there with the people I feel the closest to.

On the other hand, I don't HAVE to have these intense sessions all the time to enjoy tickling. I love the playful, innocent, spontaneous sort. And, I am very much a switch, so I love that dynamic as well. So I guess, as it has been said, it just feels terrifying and amazing at the same time. The distress and fight is real, but the rush is like being on a roller coaster (which is kinda scary for me too LOL).

I will also mention, as a lee, I'm not much into all the tools and gadgets. I just love skin-on-skin, so I felt that from a couple of y'all on this thread.

Sunny!

I have experienced the role of LER quite a bit.but never been 'pushed to my max limits' by any play partner (just light tickles, occasionally, which incidentally are hyper stimulating enough---relentless, light tickles)...
I have this switchy mentality, though, and wouldn't mind exploring with the right play partner...however, what I wanted to comment on was the similarity of the responses by people who enjoy the Lee role.....I ve been asked by ticklers "Why subject yourself to extended tickling?" And my answer is the same (must be universal thoughts of a Lee or Switch)....It's IS like a roller coaster ride...full of ups and downs...exhilarating all the way through with huge crests of extra adrenaline rushes.....before coming back down.
But in some people (like me)tickling creates the adrenaline rush followed by the 'endorphin bath' as I call it where you eventually lose the adrenaline levels and the endorphins over take the system.....only experienced it a few times, just brief periods...but I can fully understand having the desire to have that adrenaline / endorphin interplay...and having it repeated a few times on myself (I know I've given that sensation to my Lee's over the years, and like I said...I could fully understand wanting to try the ride for myself...but also how interesting that Lee types seem to find the same words and describe that A/E interplay in a similar fashion...
