ORIGINAL: SwitchNSpanky I've had loads of experiance with sensory deprivation. This is a dangerous thing you attempt. A person can have many long dormant fobias that come to the surface. Even if you've known and trusted your partner for an extensive amount of time. Also. Your supposed to be an experienced player and yet you make light of something like this that could easily cause physical or metal damage. Your obviously not conciddering what others who read this poast might do as a result of reading this. Be responsible and gradually increase the time your in the hood by short incriments. That way you and your partner will be better prepared for any mishaps. He needs to train himself to stay alert and keep his eye on you. Even when (especially when) he's pretending he is not watching. Your Dom working is not a good time to try something like this either. Be responsible and do it on a day he has off and can focus on you. It would be loads safer. How on Earth am I making light of it when I specifically started this thread to ask others for warnings and experiences, as well as having done extensive research on professional papers published on the subject? The very fact that I'm doing my research, asking questions, as well as opening a discussion about potential problems should make it very clear to anybody reading that this is not something to casually experiment with. I'm not hear preaching that this is no big deal, not in any way dangerous, and that it can't have ill effects on once psyche when things go wrong. I have a lot of experience with sensory deprivation, having frequently slept in sensory deprivation as well as having played countless times while sensory deprived for over a decade. Not only have I played a lot, for up to 3 hours or so, while sensory deprived, with multiple partners, I've also played extensively with sensory deprivation with my current husband, and he's very in tune with the effects it has on me, my body language while sensory deprived, as well as potential trigger points that I have (foot phobia wise) that may put me in a bad headspace to continue complete sensory deprivation in. I just never have done it as long as the plan is for this particular experiment. As far as him working during the experiment, that's part of the whole next step we're attempting this time. Ideally this would become a regular thing in our routine on weeks we don't have custody, with me getting used to doing several mundane tasks around the house while hooded, without supervision, to a level of comfort approximating that of a person going deaf and blind later in life. We have the benefit of joint custody, him working from home, and me not working at all, which leaves us 50% of our time with just the two of us going at it like kinky rabbits. Multiple day bondage projects in which life IS 24/7 whips, chains and restrains is very much part of our normal life together. This is just a next step in upping the ante. Unlike a certain other thread where you hammered me for making a female slave do a few jumping jacks without proper warnings of the inherent dangers of breast sag and pulled hamstrings, I'm seriously concerned here. I know you have lots of experiance and you and him seem like your tight and on the same page. Yet going from an 8 hour session into a 48 hour deal is a bit... Extreme. For you not so much, I'll bet. But I do fear you may be surprised how gnarly things can go fast. Also. I'm really worried about hubby working while you do this. Why not start this when he's not busy and go "bigger" from there? Also. Try to increase the time increment in smaller increments than 40 hours. Why not test 8 hours, then 12 hours then 16 hours etc? If this is really something you want then go for it. We all take risks. But, in regards to my use of the Cradle, I handled twelve hours beautifully but twenty four had my head spinning and I like confined spaces. Love naps and meditation. Just have some safety measures in place incase fantasy and reality don't mesh.
