I recently got my first vibrator, but have been having a bit of a problem with it. Don't get me wrong, it feels great and gets me to orgasm quickly, but that's where the problem starts. I get really sensitive when I start to orgasm, and pretty much as soon as it starts I have to take the vibrator away or it feels too intense/uncomfortable. The orgasm keeps going by itself but it doesn't feel very good at all, since I had to take away the thing that got me there in the first place! I really want to like using it, but it's been kind of ruining the best part for me lol. I don't have this problem with normal masturbation, I still get really sensitive but I'm able to use less intense stimulation and focus on other areas during it (that doesn't seem to work as well with the vibrator).

Have any of you ever experienced this? If so, how can I get past it? Also, I know it's normal to get really sensitive after an orgasm, but is it normal to get that way right when the orgasm starts?

Try using the vibrator and have at least one finger on your sensitive parts. Then start using your finger more and the vibrator less as you start peaking and climaxing.

It is also possible for vibrators to reduce your sensitivity in the long run making it difficult to orgasm in other ways.

If your vibrator has multiple frequencies and pulses, try varying them. Jns and RC have given good tips above. Variety is the secret to avoiding stagnation in orgasms. Try playing fulfilling visions when you are going through self pleasure, try changing the ambience. That also helps.
