Have you ever been hypnotized?
Well?

Re: Have you ever been hypnotized?
Nope and I had/have free access to go under because a relative was a hypnotherapist and psychotherapist, retired now. And I mean the real stuff not that 'stage hypnosis you are going to act like a chicken when you wake up' rubbish.
I like control of my mind and don't want it in the hands of someone else if I can help it. |
Re: Have you ever been hypnotized?
Yes. I won't say what for but basically I sat in a chair and listened to someone talk for 45 minutes, but it only felt like about 15.
I never felt like I was actually hypnotised or that I'd changed in any way, but since then I can see a difference to how I was before, so I guess it must have done something. No magic or hocus pocus, just a professional who understood how the subconscious works I guess. |
Re: Have you ever been hypnotized?
I have, quite a few times. Now I even listen to a hypnotherapy CD about sport.

Re: Have you ever been hypnotized?
Most people are hypnotized to some degree.

My uncle's a hypnotist... Who has never inappropriately touched me.

Re: Have you ever been hypnotized?
I'm interested in all replies, but I'm especially interested in anyone who's literally been made to do things they otherwise wouldn't. I'm generally quite skeptical of such things, but it seems like a fair number of people swear it's happened to them, so I was wondering if anyone who I know a little through this site and mainly trust not to exaggerate could say the same.

PF, if you don't have any input on the topic other than "lol" and lame jokes, perhaps you should quietly self-medicate elsewhere and leave this thread to more sincere and sober posters.

Re: Have you ever been hypnotized?
^ actually I'm PF rather than PW..mate...;) Stoners, well everyone is entitled with bad habits, though magistrates would not be pleased.

Re: Have you ever been hypnotized?
It was an honest mistake and I corrected it. You're annoying and I'm finished talking with you here.

Re: Have you ever been hypnotized?
^ Too bad, it's like a sporting metaphor. I will take my bat and ball and go home.

Re: Have you ever been hypnotized?
It was Pat Collins. She was all over the TV in the seventies. She was good looking and always picking people out of the audience and make them do weird things.
http://www.hypnosisinmedia.com/blog/...tist%E2%80%9D/ When shooting the episode of “The Lucy Show” Lucy, hypnotized, originally responded to Pat’s query of who she was by saying something to the effect that she was Lucile Ball and she owned this show. Pat had to apply some creative suggestions to get Lucy to act in character under hypnosis to procede with taping. |
Re: Have you ever been hypnotized?
Unless I'm mistaken, the sleeping aid Ambien has been classified as a hypnotic. I can speek from experience, that is a very reasonable word for the way it made me feel.
Lately I've been taking benadryl for sleep, it's a miracle drug just like asparin, you simply take it before you go to bed, if you can only sleep six hours or so, only take one. But have I ever really been 'hypnotized'? Hell know, or atleast not that I know of. But if you mean like the mall zombies in Day of the Dead, we all are to a degree. ;) |
