Ok. I was watching this self hypnosis video last night (Aug 06) on youtube that I stumbled upon. It was awkward, the whole point of the video was to make you relax, so I watched it on my bed on my phone. I followed the instructions like it said and soon I became in a state of trance. When the video finally told me to snap out I did, and I felt relaxed. The thing is though, I can’t seem to get out of this relaxation state. I feel very awkward, like I feel mostly lazy and I feel that I dont want to do most of the activities I usually want to do. Sure I’m relaxed, but at what cost? Something deep down inside of me tells me this isn’t natural, sort of like being brain washed, while another, larger part tells me to ignore it. Please help, I just want to stop feeling this way. The video is right here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-rV00Q_8kYk . I dont recommend you watch it with the intent of getting results
I don’t really know if it is hypnosis, but I am having a very hard time with girls and this video could help me greatly. I have always been scared of any hypnosis type things.
I have watched the whole video and he didn’t say anything bad like “kill yourself” etc. But I am worried that it could somehow like change or revamp by whole personality other than just destroy my approach anxiety. Does this have the power to do that, or am I just paranoid about hypnosis?
(Hypnotherapy is widely used to help reduce nicotine cravings and to break drug addictions. It is also common for people to use hypnosis for weight loss and to help overcome phobias such as fear of flying, and to increase self confidence.
It is also used to compliment conventional medicine in diabetes care, pain management, reduction of bleeding in haemophiliacs, to reduce asthma and hay fever attacks, and irritable bowel syndrome.
It won’t cure cancer, heart disease or infections but some people may find it effective as pain relief.
Hypnosis has been proven to reduce anxiety, panic disorders, insomnia, especially when it is combined with cognitive behavioural therapy)
