Default Hypnosis...

What do you think about hypnosis? Does it work on some mental or psychological ailments? Do you believe in it? And where does one begin to look for a hypnotist? Please chime in! Thanks!

I went to a hypnotist, Tom Deluca, who tours the college circuit. He couldn't get me under though.

The jedi mind trick doesn't work on this man.

these aren't the droids you are looking for.




I have hear that one must be very susceptible to hypnosis for any of it to work. Even then, there is debate that the patient is only reinforcing a type of self-fulfilling prophecy.

I tried this a while back and I definitely felt myself going under. I jolted myself awake though because it was a strange feeling. A couple of my friends who were with me went all the way with it and did some funny stuff. I say it's definitely legit, depending on the person.

Will hypnosis make me an easier sleeper by drilling "You sleep easily. You sleep like a pig." into my brain? Also, I have a few fears I'd like to rid of, since all of these are psychological, there's hope, right? Now, time to look for a legit hypnotist to try out. Anyone famous?
