Um... curious to see your evidence. I've "hypnotized" people too. Everyone can "hypnotize" some people. All evidence goes against any kind of altered state of mind though. More like submissive role-playing.
Also, for future reference, things that should make your alarm bells go off:
a) something works on someone only when you describe it to that someone
b) something works only on some people, not all of them and you don't know why.
EDIT: some people didn't understand that what I'm implying with the above points is that hypnosis is more akin to the placebo effect than anything else(altered state of mind etc).
- herval 10y agoSo basically most medicine is "baloney" for you too? (see: placebo effect and many different drugs that won't work on everyone)
- rantanplan 10y agoOf course not! But no hypnotist says that hypnosis is placebo!!! I totally agree that it is.
