To get hypnotized or not?

Forums:

I'm thinking about seeing a hypnotist to deal with step life. I've heard really positive things. Honestly, I just need a little push to accept everything, like a different way of thinking, and that's what hypnosis can do I have heard. Wondering if anyone has any experience with it? I'm a little scared!

^^^I wouldn't pay one damn

^^^I wouldn't pay one damn penny for someone to convince me of that!

But Sadasusual, if it would give you a more peaceful outlook on your situation, go for it. Just do your research and get a good hypnotist.

This is an interesting idea.

This is an interesting idea. I've seen quite a few people quit smoking with hypnosis, so can't see why it couldn't work in other situations.

I saw a clinical psychologist

I saw a clinical psychologist last week, he did this hypno type thing on me to take away my ill feelings when I think of BM. It worked!

Since then, I don't get that intense loathing when I think of BM, there was also a situation where I would usually focus on how it's BM's fault, but this time I didn't, the thought flit through my mind and I moved on to thinking of solutions.

It wasn't proper hypnosis, but oh my it's helped!

Hypnosis as I understand it

Hypnosis as I understand it can affect your perspective, but it won't do jack for the reality of steplife.

The reality: crappy parents, Disney parents, proponents of "roadkill parenting," dysfunctional families and substance abuse which most of us deal with daily. Most of us are not frustrated with steplife because of major personality disorders within ourselves ... most of us have major partner issues.
