I edge about half of the time; building on multiple orgasms feels just as good. I listen to music, rain sounds, videos of concerts, and literotica audios. Visual input comes from reading, my mind's eye, and/or fantasy.
Suddenly stopping clitoral stimulation is abrupt and usually drops me away from the edge too fast. That's rarely the intention, it doesn't let me enjoy being tantalizingly close which is the true pleasure.
My favorite pattern is circles and side to side on my clit. Slowing down my favorite patterns... then changing to patterns I don't like but don't hate (ex tapping, up and down)... and then stopping always feels pleasureably frustrating.
I can hold it for hours. Most of the time, I'm not trying to set a personal record and am just building some anticipation for... absolutely inevitable... release.
