Mehmani Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 loooooooooooooooooooool Hypnosis is not what people think it is. Influencing someone's opinion (like telling them it's a bad idea, espcially if you do it repeatedly) is a form of Hypnosis. I actually am a Hobby Psychologist, and Hypnosis is a real thing. It's subtely influencing someone to change their mind, not make them do anything completely different or moraly unacceptable. Watch Derren Brown in America, he just subtely influences people's decisions through repeated suggestion. It's not some Svengali guy saying that your eyes are getting very heavy, it's subtely influencing people's decisions through choice of body language, tone of voice and general conversational skills. EDIT: Shitsauce, someone's already posted a picture of Hypno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scatty Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I don't believe in it... This sums up my opinion on the matter quite nicely. I glad we all share the same thoughts. OBJECTION! Hope nobody minds I posted an outside link... -__- It's not youtube or some viral thing though' date=' just an article explaining my point, so I don't have to type it. I am disappoint... D:[/quote'] Because obviously the internet is always correct. I tried to read it, but after I reached a line with "Lose Yourself" in it, I started to repeat the lyrics of "Lose Yourself (Eminem)" in my mind and lost all my interest for the article. On topic: of course hypnosis exists! Look, I just typed it and you see it on the screen. How can you say it does not exist if it's RIGHT there, in front of your eyes? ACTUALLY, non-sarcastically on topic: hypnosis is cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HORUS Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Hypnosis isn't real, it's a trick. The hypnotist tricks your brain into thinking you are hypnotized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Wright~ Posted February 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Hypnosis isn't real' date=' it's a trick. The hypnotist tricks your brain into thinking you are hypnotized.[/quote'] Well, the last part is somewhat true. Hypnosis will not work unless the subject believes they are being hypnotized, believes the hypnotist can hypnotize them, and believes that hypnosis is possible. One doesn't fall into actual sleep during hypnosis. They fall into a relaxed state where they are aware of everything that is happening to them. Basically a meditative trace, which somebody else induces on you. In a proper hypnotic state, your mind is completely clear. When somebody is putting you under a hypnotic trance, they are making you relax, clearing your mind, and placing you into a hyper-aware state. Think of it as induced meditation.
