So this is a long assignment I learned about and thought I would share here for those who might be interested in learning the fascinating science behind what we do I hope you enjoy :D
--Disclaimer: I only did the research online, I did not go to school for any of this and if you want more information send me a message or bond and I can give you the link--
Endorphin Level Scale
Level 1- no altered state of consciousness, increased pain threshold. Light stingy toys or paddles are still pretty painful
Level 2- no altered state of consciousness, noticeable leap in pain threshold
Level 3- resembles a mildly drugged state, droopy eyelids, more relaxed, moans and groans, lower inhibitions
Level 4- definite altered state of consciousness, appear as if drugged, will be very compliant and submissive, is still able to communicate, super sensitive to the smallest stimulation and reaction times are quick. Body is often limp due to the "high" of endorphins but when given stimulus AKA paddle, will jerk, leap and twitch with intense force along with deep long moans with little effort from the top
Sexual intercourse should only be done in levels 3 and 4 for safety reasons of the bottom and to ensure both partners, or all partners benefit from it and no one is taken advantage of and everyone ends up happy at the end of the session.
Level 5- Deep subspace, very unlikely to safeword even when they probably logically should the endorphins are so high they over ride normal safety measures, very groggy, supreme ectasy. docility, bottom can take just about anything the top can do to them, bottom is super relaxed and clearly in altered state of consciousness.
Typically this is where normal scenes/play sessions end as to push further it would require a deep intimate understanding and knowledge of the partner you are playing with.
Level 6- Will not safeword, will take anything the top does willingly, extremely submissive, almost completely non-verbal, wild thrashing at mild stimulation, primalistic behavior and very little if any speech.
AFTER CARE
After play is over aftercare for the bottom is critical for the bottom due to the endorphin and adrenaline levels crashing having being built up over a short period of time. Cuddling time provides contact top to bottom and provides intimate contact that helps the bottom completely focus their entire being on the top. They may not want massage, talk or anything beyond being cuddled and listened to as they babble or talk mindlessly as the chemicals rush through their system. The top's job when done right is to listen, focus solely on the bottom, remind them to relax every so often as the adrenaline will cause them to tense up every so often, drink water, nod to show they are listening to what the bottom is saying, and assure the bottom it is okay. The bottom often has a "falling off the edge of a cliff" feeling as the endorphins start ebbing down so the top's job is to remind the bottom to relax and ensure them it is normal and to enjoy the high state they are having from it and wonderful state of mind they are now experiencing.
