do you believe in hypnotists?

like being hypnotized to not smoke or have anxiety or something.
do you think it works? and what are some other things people could get hypnotized for?

I think hypnosis would work for not smoking or anxiety. You can get hypnotized for just abot anything except for commiting a crime. You cant hypnotize somebody and tell them to go murder somebody or robb a bank. There is something in the mind that prevents the action from happening. I think its best if done by a professional.

Yes, but some people are more prone to be hypnotized than others. If you read about it, you’ll find that people can even hypnotize themselves. Some people could probably be hypnotized for drugs, alcohol, sex (addicts), eating disorders, etc.

I have used some good CDs for insomnia and also for weight loss. At least they helped me to relax.

hynotists cannot force someone into doing something that they do not want to do. it will depend on the person’s will.
