I have been a lover of bondage for as far back as I can remember. Even before I ever even thought of it as sexual I was tying myself up using my sheets. I didn't even understand why. Just knew I enjoyed it.
Fast forward to now. Years of practicing self bondage more professionaly and I have to say its done more than I could have ever thought. What I thought was simply just a fun thing to do has become something that has completely helped me. Helped my mental health and physical health. I've lost weight and I'm absolutely certain a part of that is from putting on several layers of nylon and tying myself up and making myself sweat some of those pounds off. As if that's not enough I've felt more at ease with myself. I feel less depressed and I get better sleep. A good self bondage session wears me out like nothing else can and it works better than any sleep pill ever has.
Of course its still fun as hell. When I've tied myself up in a way that makes it hard to move and I'm left to just focus on my body as it sweats and how everything is tightly bound.... it feels so good. But its so much more than that. Bondage has offered me therapy that I can't afford and its done more for me physically than working out has.
