      Hey guys I'm new and I just figured out how to control it to any part in my body. It's simply done by first activating the adrenaline rush and then saying where you want it to go In you're head so for instance, if I wanted to get the adrenaline to my forearms then I would say in my head forearm it's that easy so go try it and see how y

      Since adrenaline is just a chemical released into your blood it isn't possible to direct it anywhere in particular. Most likely you are focusing your attention on a specific body part and not noticing the effects on the rest of your body. Also, adrenaline can have harmful long term effects which is why I have avoided releasing it voluntarily for years.

      I am not sure what to reply to this!? But if this 'feeling' is an adrenaline rush, BE CAREFUL!!!!!!!!!! Adrenaline rushes are normally non-activateble (at will) because they can kill or seriously injure you! Do not try working out, getting in a fight or such things! Reason beacause if you punched someone at 100% of the body's power it would not only kill them but seriusly injure you by means like breaking your shoulder arm wrist ect.

      I have been able to do this for a while and I was wondering what was going on, Chris absolutely nailed it for me. It feels like a sudden rush that is kind of hard to hold? the longer I hold it the more I start to twitch. I can only hold it for 3 - 10 seconds? Does anyone know what causes this, without all the 'spiritual connection shit'. I feel like I could be releasing adrenaline, but that sounds like a load of bs from someone that thinks they are special or someshit.

      hey guys glad im not the only one i have been able to do this since i was 10 or 11 and i can tell you its not adrenaline since i can release adrenaline or this energy any time i want about the adrenaline its like a switch in my gut i just turn it on and if i have pain it goes away for few seconds until i release it again its small dose and im not planning on training adrenaline release since its not good for your heart that's how i knew that energy isnt adrenaline i have trained this energy now i can move it to all my body parts , i used to not be able to move it to my right leg , but with training now i can , to me this energy gives me peace and cure for headache since i can move it to my head .

      tips how to train it :

      - lay down on your back
      - close your eyes
      - and release it slowly (dont rush it)
      - then try to picture it in your hand (focus on 1 hand at first)

      soon you will be able to move it as you wish , my next step is to be able to turn it on while im doing things running and moving randomly its quite hard but its a gift make the most of it

      repy to me if this was helpful.

      Definitely a basic form of lentation, if you don't know what that is google it and look at the pdf that is in the results.

      I am so happy that i found this thread. I thought i search google after all this years of me knowing about this, with the words "adrenaline rush at will" and i found this forum here. It is interesting that other people possess this unqiue ability, personally i have this ability since the teen years, around 15, i am 28 now. Not sure if it natural in all of us, or if it's truly something unqiue, or if it's just placebo..

      Like described the ability manifests itself by a feeling like a surge of energy which runs through your body. For me the feeling starts either at the back of my head and then run down my neck and spreads throw the whole body and it really feels like a lighter version of a really strong adrenaline rush, also the skin starts tingling. I also recall using this at work at the hardware store when i was tired, wheneever i did it i got a boost for like 15 minutes then i had to do it again and i always felt more fresh afterwards.

      I gonna read through this thread an gather all other impressions, but again i am happy that i found this place here and to see that the thread carried over from 2009 until today. Maybe we are highly gifted with this, but there might be a scientific answer to this. Will follow this thread and include myself into the discussion if possible.

      I cant do this ability and been searching all over how to learn it, I found out the most common thing to controlling it is that your pupil dialates, I had my first adrenaline rush at 10 when I was fighting 3 strong guys at once, I want to learn how to control it because it would seem really helpful in life and death situations, plz dont go on about you guys being spiecal and being the chosen ones or sh*t cause I dont believe that

      My therapist said c-ptsd made my body stuck in fight or flight mode. I wish I could turn the adrenaline off. I'm the fuckin' ninja, no one can catch me off guard.

      I am necro bumping this thread!! But for a good intention!!

      I finally found this thread!! I joined this site just to get in touch with you guys that can do this too!! I always been able to do this energy thing like you guys explained. I just thought that maybe it was my aura or something silly like that. Then I looked up hysterical strength and found some similarities with that and adrenaline and found this place. So apparently this feeling is my adrenaline?!

      When I focus, I can feel something from my back mostly but when I really focus and think about it I can feel something all around me, but is it in my skin? Is actually something around me, or is it all in my head? Also I have dilated pupils when I do this, I first thought it was me rocking my head back, changing the light. So I took a flashlight and shined it directly into my eye while doing this adrenaline thing and my pupils still dilated! Even when the light directly in my eye, and I rested my head too and I didn't move it either.

      So if scientists are claiming that hysterical strength is due to fight or flight scenario and is caused by adrenaline, then maybe there is a way to increase our adrenaline so much that we can gain hysteric strength?? I honestly think so! This cannot be ignored! I ignored this ability since I was about 10 years old, now I'm 24!! So much potential could be discovered in all this time, lost!? I cannot ignore this anymore!

      have you guys noticed when you focus, there are different intensities of this focus? You can go really light, and just slightly feel a rush. You can kinda "feel the air around you" as I say. You can maintain this level for a long period, I never really tried doing this for that long that much. Now if you go all out and focus as hard as you can, it's much harder to maintain this state. You get twitchy and I try doing this when I walk, and I am still twitchy. I have tried it once in the gym when doing squats. I was lifting 315 on squat, and I did 3 reps much easier than I normally do . . . and I wasn't breathing hard. I think this is much room to improve on this. If a women that doesn't lift one bit, all of the sudden gets hysterical strength to save her father underneath a car and can just lift 2 tons out of no where. . . . then there must be a way for us to do this too! I get that people like her are in certain situations, but what happened still happened, and I believe we can train to get at that level so we can use this kinda of strength w/o having to be in that scenario!

      lets work on this together!! I know this is corny! but I feel like I can train this ability and get stronger at it to the point I can get hysterical strength. Maybe we can make a facebook group or something too?

      it's a shame that all these people found this site in attempt to find others who also discovered this ability. This isn't some stupid phenomenon when someone posts about how they had some dream. This is something that many people have experienced that isn't really known about. It's something that is screaming to be fully discovered. If you think that using this ability to rush adrenaline just to twitch around a little bit is all you can do then you are only fooling yourselves. Is that it? What a waste . . . why even come to this place in the first place.

      This thing isn't just some random experience someone is making up, it's real!! I don't feel like we are using this ability to it's fullest potential. I think just "activating" this is only a beginning stage of controlling it. there has to be more.

      I find it hard to believe that people will just show up, make an account on here just to say, "oh yeah I can do that too" and then leave.

      Hey

      I too second your idea to make a group concerning this ability. Finding this thread was mind blowing to me because I always had the ability to do this since a child, but it mainly happened involuntarily when I was younger. As I grew older and more opened minded, I admit I sorta became addicted to the feeling of the rush or tingle, and learned how to do the shiver by will alone. As for personal info about myself, I've always have been interested in the human brain and what makes us tick, so I've done loads of research into lucid dreaming, activating the pineal gland, effects every frequency can have on the human brain and so on.

      I enlisted in the US army when I was 18 for 3 years and have learned to adapt the rush/surge/tingle for combat, every time I had to react or shoot, it helped me focus loads. Well, getting out like two years ago, I utilized my benefits and enrolled in college for a neuroscience degree specializing in vibrations. I've made some groundbreaking discovery that I personally don't want to reveal to the world, just because I want to find more evidence to back me, find out more and don't want this special type of ability falling into the wrong hands.

      BUT to go on what I know, from my personal knowledge, its not some spiritual awakening or special power. Starting from the base of the spine, your sending a huge electrical current up the spine, till it reaches whats called the amygdala. Basically it works like a switch. When you surge, you switch it back, activating a willpower induced adrenaline rush that heightens all 5 senses, since the amygdala affects the hippocampus and the adrenal madala located right above your kidneys that provides your body system with the two types of adrenaline (epinephrine and noephineprine) which also explains the tunnel vision some people experience, which can also cause altered time distortions, or feeling like some "bullet time" shit. After the "switch" is clicked back into its foward position, the brain remembers the experience from muscle memory, and the pre-frontal cortex has a kind of static charge that will last for a 24hour period, every time you use the "surge". This gives you long-term potentiation of the pre-frontal cortex that lets you learn at half the normal speed and saves everything to long term memory, even those little useless facts.

      Basically the pineal gland has nothing to do with this ability, just the parts of the brain that process emotions and memory. Thats why listening to a song, seeming a movie or doing something that emotionally moves you activates this. Hell, even pure fear. You can tell if you activated your full range of senses if you feel the electrical current running and you get goosebumps, otherwise you are just activating a short term muscle spasm reflex.

      In my own case and even two collegues of mine that can do this, the brain spikes on activity levels when we three "surged" while undergoing an MRI, but no difference on a CAT scan or EEG. Its an amazing ablility, but ive also noticed that it peaks the brain into an alpha wavelength, which is usually our waking daily wavelength, but if used wrongly can give you short term insomnia. Muscle spasms may occur because the unchecked amount of the two types of adrenaline rushing through out your body and the high amount of static build up.

      Some people's nervous system is hardwired to use this ability not only as a response to the "fight or flight" reflex, but also with anxiety which in turn causes the abundant amounts of perspiration. Personally, every time I use this ability, which is a lot daily now, it drains a huge amount of energy, because adrenaline is converted from glucose ie glycogen and the need to eat more because you metabolism will be higher from the constant energy use, even though you may never gain weight from the consuming. I eat a low calorie/high sugar diet but its not refined, because without the sugar, I feel drained.I just have to worry about one day becoming diabetic!

      And for those that said there is a "cap", its true, because of thw overexertion that you place on your brain is basically over taxing it and your organs, but its simple to counteract this with some Chinese pennywort as it helps facilitate normal brain function and even increases the ratio of blood sent to the brain for concentration, otherwise than that, you can go the placebo route and try your hand at brainwave entrainment. I've personally have never seen any cases of diminished intelligence from use unless 1:the individual was illerate beforehand and 2: the individual does not abuse the ability hoping to become a superhero, chosen-one, ninja or some stupid shit.

      As for hysterical strength, me and my research team have looked into A LOT of cases that humans exhibited it and it would be interesting to learn more about it, but the basics of why humans can't utilize it at will is the strain it puts on us. That much constant use would rip muscle fibers, pull joints out of sockets, tear tendons, cause organ failures leading to eventual explosion of the heart from massive street overload. So useless we create bio-synthetic muscle fibers for our body's muscles and heart, and a strong sturdy material for our bones, I see anyone who can "hysterical strength" at will, a person that may kill themselves from overload. But yea pm me if anybody wants more info, and remember every thing exist in vibrations.

      Wow this is crazy!! Yeah lets start a facebook group or something and we all can work on this!

      I didn't know about the whole cortext thing, maybe I'm not doing that thing right? Cuz Im going to school too and I learn things like 10 times slower xD

      Also I have some cases of insomnia all the time!! but I also take pre workout stuff and drink coffee. My insomnia is never consistent. So it might not be this rush thing.

      I just recently decided to train on this adrenaline thing. I don't do it everyday because I was worried I'd hurt myself, or at least I should work my way up. But yeah every once or twice a week I'll have a session where I go all out with this adrenaline rush trying to improve it or discover something about it lol.

      Zadill and I made a facebook group called Adrenalwill! Join the group if you think you can control your adrenaline!

      We hope to see you guys there. With this we can keep in touch and explore this mystery together!

      The Power to control your Sympathetic Response- voluntarily- is very real

      I feel very bad for the people here who are trying to communicate an utterly super strange ability that happens in their body/mind. However, it is like describing light to a blind person- they really don't get it.

      I have been practicing western medicine for 30 years and for a change also just completed my masters in Oriental Medicine (2014). [We] have for years used different equipment to play with my "ability" while in the ER/OR/Office while no patients:
      PulseOX, EEG, EKG, spirometry.The fact is, it is an instantaneous- literally as fast as thought phenomena/ability that can send my HR up to 200bpm is seconds, all while maintaining a NSR-normal sinus rhythm (PQRST remains unremarkable, otherwise); it is simple tachycardia. The pulse ox remains saturated and whereas the BP may raise to over 160/96 within seconds, the arterial pressure at rest does not substantially rise.
      I have always asserted (the reason is lost with age) that I "squeeze" my adrenal glands. It does not matter that western medicine says that this is not possible. What matters is the similar reports from disparate people all around the world. We are all describing something similar. Variously, some report that they are squeezing something in their head. Perhaps this is due to the incredible electric-like sensation tingling around the neck, head, and shoulders, and pupil changes.
      My breathing does not change and while my tidal volume remains the same we once calculated that my stroke volume for cardiac output only begins to become effected at x ___bpm after a few minutes. Those of us who do this cannot really do this for minutes at a time; we exhaust then stop.
      I often would engage in conversation, laugh, or drink water just to demonstrate to others that this is not contemplative, or bearing down on pelvis, contra stimulation of parasympathetic response, etc. In every single case I have convinced my peers, professors, cardiologists, and others that this was real. In every case they stood corrected, surprised, but did not understand.
      It requires no thought, emotion, respiration, or other manipulation and it does not respond to time; its instantaneous. Oh, and when done, there will be an appreciable difference in armpit smell. This may be due to the secretion of porcine/like glands related to... fight or flight- sympathetic response!

      My final note is, while lost in time related to the Posting date, I hope my comments serve some benefit for anyone searching to discover what is happening to them. I began searching for explanation before internet age and the medical books, as the internet now, had nothing conclusive. And yet... each one of us who does this is just 100% positive that this ability IS deeply related to something else; isn't that right? Here is a throw away email address I offer if anyone can help me still to understand this ability. I will keep email for 24 months from Apr 14. priapus4u at hotmail. com

      I know this is about 4 years late to reply, but I am hoping someone out there is still on this.
      I not sure if I can do this or not, but I do this thing sometimes where I get this wave of either physical or mental anticipation/excitement. What I mean by that is that I will either get extreme energy levels or spasms for basically a split second, then I feel normal again. Whenever I try and do what Chrisdeemian said about the waterfall idea, I get a very vague experience of it, It's like I get it, but It's very distant, nearly unnoticeable. I really want to be able to do this, does anyone have advice? I know it's like trying to explain how to use a muscle or something, but anything is appreciated.

      I can't do it - sounds like a great ability to have - if you refrain from over-using it - after all, it's an emergency system and the extra or hysterical strength you can get like this, is meant for an all in exertion - no matter the damage to the system.
      No doubt, it can be used sensibly, though - and I envy you for it a bit.
      Really interesting thread - but my are there some weird posts in it..

It's something that is screaming to be fully discovered. If you think that using this ability to rush adrenaline just to twitch around a little bit is all you can do then you are only fooling yourselves. Is that it? What a waste . . . why even come to this place in the first place.

      This thing isn't just some random experience someone is making up, it's real!! I don't feel like we are using this ability to it's fullest potential. I think just "activating" this is only a beginning stage of controlling it. there has to be more.

      I find it hard to believe that people will just show up, make an account on here just to say, "oh yeah I can do that too" and then leave.
      This one really galls me - you basically come on here, and dismiss lucid dreaming as some stupid irrelevant phenomenon at best, and at worst as people just making shit up.
      That's an incredibly ignorant and impolite thing to do, when joining an LDing forum.
      You know nothing about lucid dreaming? Fine - but refrain from such condescension, please.

      There is no benefit to voluntary Sympathetic control

      Guys/gals, apparently there is some further misunderstanding here; we all tend to associate this ability with flight or fight- yea, me too. Pretty sure it is. However, there is no extra strength thing going on. There is no brilliant burst of flight, fight, smarts, etc. I could hardly do a hand dextrous task as my body is pre shaking. Ever recall a fight where your own leg was micro shaking before the fight? You really weren't scared but you hoped no one would notice because it kinda seemed like you were- it is just on the verge of this dysfunctional state. There is nothing great about this I have deduced. I am now 50 and have always been able to do the HR Pupil thing. There may be some things in life to envy, this is not one. Every person who has this knows for sure if they do, there is no question about it, but they would all tell you as an asset or ability, it is unremarkable. The ability to count change from a cashier is infinitely more useful than this albatross.

      I posted on this thread years later because I continue to hunger for answers. Regarding Lucid Dreaming however, I will make this one observation in relation to this thread. On various occasions, years ago, prior to a lucid dream, I would occasion to have a sense of "falling" or micro tearing as I described it. It was weird, like a sense of Velcro separating, but with falling. I sensed my heart rate racing fast and as I fell faster I realized the sense was just as if I were turning this ability on, increasing my HR on my own. This frequently scared me and often the fear would instantaneous bring me back and wake me fully. Bob Monroe's books informed me I needed to not be afraid. However, the sense of separating here was exactly the same sense other posters have described. This is the closest I have ever come to seeing a connection of any usefullness of this ability. Mostly I just fear I am or have damaged my heart or will stroke or aneurysm from doing it.

      I'd rather wish to have control over parasympathetic activation, rather than vice versa -- I have difficulty dumbing my awareness and intensity down. After all, when I need to activate the sympathetic nervous system, the situation itself inevitably evokes it.

      Though I say that whilst sitting here with a HR of 45bpm.
