Thank you for this, DDA! I was finally able to let go of stress I was feeling, and this was perfect for when the tears came. You're a treasure! Everyone listening to this audio, I hope you are taking care of yourself. I'm rooting for you!

oh... i'd been saving this one. this evening was rough. i'm an emotional person and hadn't been able to feel/experience much for several months (numb from stress). a lot of things finally got released and this helped me come down as i tried to get ready for sleep. thank you 🖤

Just what I needed today!!

This audio hit me like a ton of bricks. 😭 I think deep down, I needed to hear this. I have a horrible habit of just shutting down and disassociating when terrible things happened. I don’t know why I take it upon myself to keep it together while everyone else allows themselves to grieve or process what happened.

Got it. My first ep ever!

Thank you for adding the labels so quickly! I only found one other audio that could also be categorized as [SFW], not sure if you'll think the same though. It's your Mar 5, 2023 audio titled "Cuddly boyfriend helps you fall asleep | ASMR | (deep voice, gentle, calming, breathing)."
.
Good catch! Just added the SFW tag to this and one other. Let me know if you see any more and I'll add 'em. This kind of feedback is super helpful, so thank you ❤️

Thank you so much, PoT 🤍🙏

Hey DDA! Whenever you have the time, do you think you could group all of your SFW comfort audios by tagging them [SFW] or something along those lines? Initially I thought searching [Comfort] would only result in the SFW audios but there's a mix of SFW and NSFW audios that populate in the search results. It just would make it easier to binge the SFW comfort audios, which would be really nice to be able to do. Again, just a small request whenever you find yourself with some free time.

I absolutely adore this audio. Not sure how I even missed it, but maybe I'm discovering it when I need to hear it most. Mother's Day is always a bit rough for me, which is SO weird because no other holiday gets me in my feels in this way. Favorite quotes from this audio: ✨️ "Sometimes I think for me it's helpful to just give myself room to be down about it and sad in a really big way." ✨️ "You don't have to explain even to yourself why this is bad for you or what makes this moment so tough. It can be kinda bigger than that." ✨️ "Sorry is this helpful? Is it helpful for me to kinda talk like that and try to be a little optimistic? Because if it's not I don't want to, you know we can just be sad together right now if that's better." It's almost a gut reaction to be hopeful and forward-looking when someone is down, but that's not always what is needed...or wanted. The fact that you included checking in with the listener to see if your optimism was helpful was the crown jewel of this entire audio for me. Not everyone wants to "put on a happy face" or be told that "time heals all wounds." Sometimes a person might need to sit with the heaviness of that sadness in order to navigate through it. Or sometimes you might not know the full scope of that person's pain and/or trauma so the optimism, although well-intentioned, could do more harm than good. I know this is a pretty long comment for an older audio, but I really appreciate that you have this type of content. Though incredibly small, I'm blessed to have a friend group I can turn to when things are feeling bleak, but it's not lost on me that for some people your comforting audios might be all they have. You know the fact that I only discovered you about a couple of months ago sometimes makes me irrationally angry at my past self! TL;DR: Thank you DDA 🤎

That was so sweet. Saving this one because it's just what I need on many days. Thank you DDA

The guy I was interested in doesn't like switches. I'm bummed, and confused because it seemed like we were getting along well. Oh well there's more fish I guess. I know you had some allergy problems in this one. Honesty I actually think it makes the audio better. Thanks for making this audio.❤️
Sugar and Spice
I've never had a partner this comforting....I'm actually kind of speechless at how personal this feels. I'm glad I listened to it today.
.
So glad it was helpful ❤️

i got a bad news today and this audio helped me feel a lot better. it’s so sweet and felt like a warm hug if that makes sense. thank you🩷

Honestly situations like this, and having to face them head on while single is definitely a reason I consider finding a healthy relationship. There’s just a certain comfort that friends and family can’t provide in rough times. Those times are when a supportive partner is important, other reasons too, but helping each other through the hard stuff makes your relationship stronger.

This was so amazing. It made me cry so much harder at first bc I wanted to FEEL being held but it helped me get past the crying phase much quicker. I loved that you tried to do the man thing and fix it but you also were willing to get down in the dark hole I was in with me. The only thing better would be if I had been able to have an actual bf hold me

Beautiful work, thank you

soft Sunday is the sweetest thing 🥹

Got a "bad news call" this week and I am expecting a second one. This really helps. Thank you.
.
Oh wow, that sounds intense. Hope it's fun and not too heavy ❤️

I’ve been playing a really sad game this week, Spiritfarer, where I have to help characters pass on. I’ve cried like 3 times over it. This helps.
.
Definitely!
Laeay
ok at this point I feel you're not even a real person and just a fantasy I've made up in my mind.
Val
I really need to quit you 😭
Joy Binkley
Must file this away for a no good, very bad day. It's so lovely and sweet.
Angel
I loved this ❤️ can you do a reverse comfort one? Where we hold you and play with your hair and make you feel safe? Thank you 😊
.
I'm so sorry 🖤

What a perfect audio for a gloomy, rainy Sunday. I have allergies too so I know how you feel. Raspy or not, your voice is always wonderful. This audio is so soothing and comforting. “I’m talking too much” - NOT POSSIBLE! 😏🥰
.
Good luck with the finals!
.
Thank you ❤️

If this is about losing someone I can relate. I just buried my brother last month ( died in a car accident). It doesn’t seem real.
eleni
oof just as I’m about to stay up late to study for finals… this was the perfect way to spend my break and exactly what I needed to hear😌💛✨

Allergies suck, just don't push yourself too much! We can wait. Although the rasp isn't a bad thing listening wise. Great job on the audio💜
