Anyone had it done / tried it?

If so, what was it for, and did it work?

Was Hypnotised on holiday in magaluf, thats about it.

However, my friend got hypnotised to stop him smoking and it worked a treat for him

Don't believe in it. For all I care, its just mumbo-jumbo.

i was properly hypnotised by my old counseller, it was relaxing and you feel much better for it after, but I didnt have it as a use to prevent anything so I can really talk of long term effects :p

I would love to let some pro try and hypnotize me, and have me act like an ass on camera. But i'm sceptical :p

When I was working at a pet shop a while back we ran a tent/exhibition at a local fair. We had various animals on show, at one part we had snake handling - allowing people to come up and have a hold of a real snake (supervised and with certain precautions/limitations ofc).

I was helping out with this part and some woman came up, practically running towards us, really excited and eager as I talked to her, she said she'd had hypnotherapy to cure her fear of snakes, she'd been too scared to even watch one on TV or anything, but there she was, handling a real snake and completely enjoying it - it was fascinating to watch, my gut feeling didnt think she was lying, and i'm usually skeptical about this sort of thing :)

I had my doubts about it tbh but this chance meeting has swayed me towards being on the edge of belief in it, I really doubt that she was lying tbh because of the way she was talking about it.

I've only ever heard about it like that though, either through talking to someone who has had it or through a "friend of a friend" sort of thing.

Only ever heard good things though... not certain if I would do it myself though tbh, I prefer to face my addictions/phobia's down and overcome them the old fashioned way :)

you have no memory of the actual 'coding'... but then when the anchors hit in and are asked about it after, you tend to feel a little silly and though it was something you watched on tv once

I have tried basic hynosis, doing it that is, it is so easy that when you learn it from someone, you will be like "What the? No way it can be that easy"

What I learned isn't the "put them to sleep and make them do crazy things" stuff through, more the "control them" thing, like make them unable to move their hand from the table, mostly stuff you can do in nightclubs to have fun with people ;)

Both my mother and sister got hypno to help them stop smoking, from what they said the hypno guy just kinda made there brain realise that smoking was killing them and didnt make them look "cool" or "grown up". As soon as your sub conscoius (sp?) realises that smoking will kill you, youll stop with no effort at all as your body will do everything in its power to prolong your life.

Cost em about £200 each and they both saw the same guy.. my mum's gone from 30 a day to 0 and my sis has gone from 20 a week to 0 (she only smoked when she was out with her mates). My mum had the hardest time, she kept sticking pens in her mouth and sucking them, appently it dooesnt break the habit part of it it just made here never want to touch another cig.
