I lovee the way you write about hypnosis!! Even just the little one or two sentence fantasy posts are really intriguing to me. (The one about the gloves is so real btw) The way theyβre written just feels so professional, knowledgeable and safe!
Your posts make me wanna do a bunch of research and learn more about it, and expand my horizons on different hypno stuff (like the hypnosis games that have been talked about), even though i know iβll probably get a little bored and confused reading through all the clinical-wording of the papers that are sometimes posted about lol
Iβve been dropped slightly a couple times while reading the scenarios, so iβm gonna check out the youtube files, from like 1 or 2 other anons ive seen theyβre also really good so iβm very very excited :3
um. Uh. yeah. you/yβall are so cool in my eyes
thank you so much!! i really appreciate this ask, this whole thing is such a big compliment. because we do like encouraging people to get more into it and try different things and explore it. and it's nice to hear that it comes off as knowledgeable because honestly even with as much as we've read about hypnosis, sometimes i feel like i still don't really know anything about it. but it's always fun for us to learn more about it and we try to understand as much as we can, so i'm glad that comes through
and yea the research stuff can be so much, especially anything related to like brain scans and stuff. and then on top of the language sometimes being kind of hard to understand, you have the added layer of like, okay, is this study even actually saying anything, were there any big methodological issues, were there other studies that completely contradict this, etc. but even in a situation where you're taking everything with a grain of salt it's still kinda fun just to like read about it and think about it and imagine what it would be like to be part of a study like that, so i still get entertainment from it anyway. and it's interesting to consider like, whether the conclusions they come to match up with your own experiences or not, and why that might be
hope you enjoy the files too!
