What does it feel like to be hypnotized? -

[A Clockwork Soybean]

Hypnosis is apparently a very popular sexual fetish among certain types of people, up there with vore, inflation and the like. Unlike with vore or inflation, you can actually be hypnotized for real, even if the way it's portrayed by fetish artists isn't necessarily accurate.

I've been curious about hypnotism actually looks like in a professional setting. Have any kiwis had any experiences with hypnosis?

I was always interested in hypnosis regression thanks to a paranormal encyclopedia ("Mysteries of Mind, Space and Time") but despite reading articles about how hypnosis helps with depression/anxiety never done it.

Shouldn't you already be familiar with the feeling, what with all of the Sissy-Hypno videos you listen to?

Hypnosis is a part pressure test. If everyone pressures you into believing you are hypnotized so you then quack like a duck when the conman snaps his fingers, then the assistant will mark your car with invisible ink to let other gypsies know you are an easy mark.

Hypnosis is bullshit that only works on suggestibility, a state in which you’re already mostly hypnotized. It’s just an external force meant to help you push yourself mentally. You ever zone out? Stared in a mirror so long you dissoaciate? Thought about a word long enough it no longer makes sense? That’s all hypnosis is. It’s that brief moment of nothing clarity, before you start panicking. Then they whisper some bullshit in your ear and it’s supposed to help you do something. That’s it.

Fetish Hypnotism is just cartoon porn. It’s not real and it has nothing to do with “actual” hypnotism, and everything to do with BDSM.

This is the sort of answer I was looking for. I'm well aware fetish hypnotism is just that, a fetish. I was more curious about how someone might develope an interest in this sort of thing, especially if they'd never actually been hypnotized themselves.

Again, much like vore and inflation, it has almost nothing to do with the mundane reality of the topic, and everything to do with the weird sub/dom dynamic portrayed cartoonishly, combined with some sort of physical stimulation. In the case of vore, restriction, slime, and warmth; inflation, the sensation of being filled and the pain that comes from being full. For hypnotism, it’s the feeling of that trance-like state combined with whatever physical stimulation they’re being inflicted with.
