Hi!
I must be the worlds most hypnotisable/ suggestable person. It is very easy for me to go into a hypnotic state. It's a profound state of distance from the world. I'm extremely disassociative. Whenever something unpleasent or uncomfortable happens, I'm pretty much gone... it's spontainous. Last year I had to have an amnio and there were some complications so it was more painful that it should have been and the whole experince is kinda cloudy and fuzzy in my mind. I remember stareing at a dot on the wall and the next thing I remember the docs are telling me I can leave. I was really light-headed and had trouble walking because I was so "out of it"
More controled hypnotsism works well on me, too. I can go so deeply under that you can stick pins in my arm and I won't even know it. FP likes to do this at parties to get a laugh.
When I was getting ready to write this post, we were talking about things that happened to me under hypnosis and I realized there are a lot of things I don't remember. I don't even remember being asked if I wanted to remember some stuff.
I think that hypnotism is really a product of you working on your own mind. If you allow someone to hypnotis you, and you want it to work, then it will. It's all in your head!
