    Has anyone here ever been Hypnotised?
    I have never had it done and to be honest i don't really belive in it that much.

    I just wonder if anyone here have ever been 'stage' Hypnotised or just that skop smoking, lose weight ect thing

    For those who like me have not had it done do you belive or not?

    There was a hypnotist in whelan's a few weeks ago, i never used to believe in hypnotism until i saw the show.. some of the things they did were f**ked up, stuff u would NEVER do when..er.. not hypnotised
    I think only some people can be hypnotised

    Never been hyp'ed myself, but my two next-door neighbours got it done to stop them smoking... it worked, the father went from 60-a-day to total quitness.
    I wouldn't trust my subconsious to a complete stranger though ;p
    I dunno, maybe it's not as powerful as it's made out to be, maybe the suggestive thought is only a very mild trigger for things you already want to do. <<shrugg>>

    the last 2 years in a row now, we've had a hypnotist in for freshers week. never believed it until i saw what happened. unfortunatly i was one of the people sent down cos it wouldnt work. or my mind was too powerful.

    Yep, me have been under the powers of a hypnotist. We got Barry Sinclair in college during freshers week last year.

    I volunteered to be hypnotised, believing that there was no way in hell it could work, and that it was all nonsense.

    How wrong I was. The lads had a great laugh at me, made a complete ass of myself.

    The sad thing is I can't remember a thing.

    i decided last year when i wasnt hypnotised, it was because i was too nervous. this year i just got locked before i went up. i still dont know what i was laughin at!!

    If you have ever watched TV and not noticed someone talking to you until they said your name the you have entered a hypnotic trance so Id say all of you have at one point been hypnotised.

    Also You cant be hypnotised by someone if you don¡¯t want to be.
