An obvious risk is the restrained, is bedsores. The biologically immobilized and the artificially restrained, share a lot of common risks

Master has talked about catheters and feeding tubes in the future for longer periods of bondage. But I think that's a bit further in the future until my health issues are under control.

Master wants electric catheters so he can send shocks all the way up inside.
Oh God, yes he does. He wants to hear you scream and writhe

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.

It takes a long time to acquire bedsores...I mean like a week immobilized, unless you have some other physical health issues. Otherwise I don't think one really needs to worry about those for a few hours or a couple of days.

I like Thundershark too. You should try some Mr Bondskin while you're at it, Ishi. IIRC, he plays in the same zip codes

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.

The Mayo clinic and the NZ dermatological society disagree

As little as 2 hours in a bed. 15minutes in a wheelchair. No age disclaimer.
So for 36+ hours of restricted movement from bondage and/or mummy play, we're in their risk zone.

Yeah it's somewhat similar. I read all of his stuff years ago as well.

It's so hard to find decent -written- porn on the internet these days, I feel like I've found, read, and reread everything in my taste range 10 times over. Though lately, going back and rereading some of my old favorite classics, I've noticed that I tend to modify and correct all that was wrong with the stories in my memories of them. I tend to elaborate in memory on the parts I liked apparently, and a lot more of the chicks end up dying in the end.

Maybe I should take up writing shorts myself.

Oh. And if you can hear, what music or whatever your listening to will have a much more profound effect on your mind than you might think. So control (or have him control) as much sound as possible. It really helps.

Having things to meditate on would help quite a bit with keeping your head in the right place after you hit a certain threshold. I'd memorize a list of "topics" so when it gets real you don't have to think something up on the fly while your stressed.

It will also be loads safer if he limits your movement to a room at a time and helps you travel the house. At first anyway. Your analogy of learning to perform tasks as a blind woman would is very interesting. It's way cool kink and has a fascinating science side to it. I'm looking forward to updates as to how this works out. Would love to have you start a thread about your experiances doing this. Very interested to see how long it takes you to build a mental map of the house and how long until you accurately count steps, etc.
