hypnokink and other silly ideas

A subject often needs to practice dropping, and dropping often starts with relaxing—and relaxing can be easier said than done! Being in tune with your body, controlling your breathing, focusing your attention on words, visuals, and/or sensations (commonly in combination) all take experience. The brain is such an interesting and complicated thing. It really takes effort to understand it, and learning how best you drop is a continual process!

A big element of the hypnosis field is public perceptions and tropes where people are much further along in their journeys than a beginner would be - so don't expect to go completely unaware and have post hypnotic suggestions take perfectly when you're early on in your explorations!

I love advising people to focus on the changes they experience from their starting/default waking state - that way you get the sense of what hypnosis feels like for you, rather than comparing against some as yet unachievable goal.

It's entirely possible that you might get there eventually - being on stage playing the aforementioned concerto - but in the meantime it's about baby steps and gradual progress: noticing the impact that trance is having on you and affirming that things are working.

The point is incredibly clear to me: it's the fantasy of another person actively wanting you to be a trans man instead of mere acceptance or trying to detransition you. Of someone who wants you to be a man so much, maybe they want you even more than you do.
