Hypnosis, has anyone done it?
Has anyone here ever gone to a hypnotherapist to help with any addictions or problems? My mom did a few times to help her quit smoking, but it never seemed to stop the addiction. Has anyone had successful hypnosis done? I want to try it, but I'm kind of afraid to.
I have not ever tried it, but I've read into it a bit and have thought about trying it. I just don't know if I could push myself to actually go through with it. I'm too scared it would change me.
I did a few years ago, can't say it really changed much, but the key is going back multiple times, as it's not as easy to change one's mind with hypnosis. See, you have to be willing to be hypnotized, and sometimes our body doesn't want us to go through with it.
I don't think hypnosis is the right way to change someone's behavior. It's not an 'easy fix' for most behaviors they need professional help seeing a doctor or therapist. Hypnosis' can be fun though if your into it. I don't think I would ever do something like that.
I was at some magicians show a few years back and the magician hypnotized one of the people (by volunteer) in attendance and while that person was hypnotize the magician was getting the person to do funny things. At the time I didn't know if the person was really hypnotized or just playing along. It was interesting for sure.
