Been using the helix syn a few times now with little progress, and it seems the more I ask the more confused I get. People have told me to do light contractions about halfway and hold, though I will do that for 20 minutes and barely feel anything. Others tell me to simply do nothing and let the aneros work its magic, though I’m not sure if that can happen if I do nothing right from the start, and as far as I know the only involuntary contractions I have had only lasted for a few seconds when I started to feel a sort of tingling feeling coming from my prostate (whatever you want to call that). It then subsides and nothing happens. I also noticed if I push the aneros closer towards my stomach when I breath in I get a sort of warm fulling feeling in my stomach, but it’s only very minor and brief because I have to hold my breath and concentrate hard for that to happen. I think I might try the do nothing approach from the start, I just need some relaxing audio or something perhaps. Can anyone give me some tips for someone who is confused as to what I should be doing to make progress?

Making progress, but still not sure what im doing wrong
I had a session using my aneros helix syn today for around 2 hours. Completely relaxed, I stared to feel things rather quickly, I could feel a light tingling feeling/numbness coming from my prostate and penis. This was on and off rather randomly for an hour and a half I imagine. Eventually I discovered if i pushed the aneros up towards my belly with my muscles and held it there (think this mightve had to do with holding my breath) I could feel a buildup in my prostate and what I thought was in my stomach too. This buildup was slightly stronger than the small feelings I had before and quickly went away. I also put my butt up on a pillow and it didnt seem to become much better.
Im confused to what im doing wrong however. People have told me to relax and just let the aneros do its thing and to not tense up, yet they have also told me to not “do nothing”. I dont know what to do now when i start to feel these sensations building, keep doing the contractions exactly like I am? Try and push the aneros closer against my prostate? Or just stop doing things and let the aneros do what it wants?
Is this lube safe to use?
I just went to the store and picked up a cheap water based lube called “SLiquid” as far as I know aneros toys are supposed to specifically NOT be used with silicon based lubes. Should this SLiquid water based lube be good to use? It even says it uses natural ingredients or whatever because it’s some vegan based lube or something, and I didn’t see the word silicon on the bottle anywhere at all.
Question: Just bought my first aneros.
Like the title says, I bought the helix syn today (or whatever the red and black one is called) and should be getting it in the mail eventually. I had experimented with prostate play before but could never get *anything* to happen at all. Now that I’ve finally bought it, what are some things you guys think I should know for a beginner? I’m ready to dive into this head first now that I’ll have a proper toy that can do stuff. Should I be watching porn? Should I listen to some erotic audio while watching porn? How long should I hold off on masturbating before using the toy? Should I edge before using it, if so for how long? I just want to be sure I don’t mess up my first experience with it or anything as I will only get the chance to use it very rarely.
