DiorAddict Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 I've decided that I am going to get hypnotized to erase my EX from my memory, however there is just one problem. * What if I am fooling around with destiny? What if it's meant for me to suffer so I can appreciate the next guy, or even more off the wall, what if it's meant for us to get back together? Any suggestions about getting hypnotized? Can I do that???
Tony T Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 You are getting very very tired....you are getting very sleepy....you are very relaxed.....very relaxed. Your eyes are closing as you go into a very deep state of relaxation. At the count of three you will be in a state of hypnosis............................1........................2........................3
Author DiorAddict Posted April 25, 2004 Author Posted April 25, 2004 HA! Tony sweetie, if that worked, I'd be wiring you some BIG BUCKS!!!!
sportsloving Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 As far as I know, heck anything is possible... but what if the hypnotist is one of those who will make you quack like a duck when someone sneezes? LOL, I do wish you luck~
Author DiorAddict Posted April 25, 2004 Author Posted April 25, 2004 LMAO, if I start quacking, I'll send the tape to everyone at the LoveShack!
Tony T Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 A qualified, licensed, medically ethical hypnotherapist could probably be of some value to you. However, you have to be careful in your choice. There are a lot of nuts around.
average guy Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 Go see "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" BEFORE you 'erase' anything! Cheers A.G.
magda Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 For the most part, in hypnotism nothing will happen to you that you don't approve of - people who do crazy chicken dances are perfectly aware that they're doing the crazy chicken dance, whether they admit it or not. Even in quitting smoking cigarettes, hypnotism often only works for a little while... it's connected to will-power. It can help motivate you... help you make other associations instead of thinking about your ex. Anything else promised to you is a bit quacky. Basically, you're just going to have to get yourself focusing on something else, in replacement of the ex. Because it's really not going to work if you say "do not think of the ex". You just have to "think about something" [else]. This is true whether you get it hypnotized into you or do it on your own. I think you'd be better off getting a new hobby or job or something like that - more bang for the buck, anyway. What if this, what if that. What if it's meant for you to learn how to make decisions and just live for yourself? What if it's meant for you to appreciate life first, then worry about guys? "Whatever will be, will be."
magda Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 people who do crazy chicken dances are perfectly aware that they're doing the crazy chicken danceWell, in retrospect, maybe "aware" isn't the best word for it. "Willing" is closer, perhaps... Hypnosis depends entirely on will. If you don't want to get over your ex, you won't. And let's be honest here, if you're still imagining you might have a future with him, you aren't really willing to just shelve the guy, are ya?
Author DiorAddict Posted April 25, 2004 Author Posted April 25, 2004 Wow magda, you are awesome. You gave me advice on another issue and you seem to know a lot about many different things. Hopefully I myself can become as wise about life and life's choices and challenges. And no, I'm not at all being sarcastic. I feel like I have so much to learn about things. Maybe after grad school I will be ALMOST there....Sometimes I feel like I'll need 2 PhD's and an abroad experience in Cambodia to break the bubble I've lived in up until now!
tom_gbr Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 If you don't want to get over your ex, you won't i thinks the main problem thats holding me back from moving on...it doesnt help that im keeping in with her...after i spoke to her wednesday i had planned to break contact all together...but last night in my drunken state i think i sent her a text message saying something like im missing talking to you or something. the worst thing is it was around 9 o clock so i bet she didnt even think that i was drunk!..to make matters worse i have to text her again tonight to apologise if i said anything bad in the message what a mess!

But I feel the same way: I can't wait to be old and smart. Hopefully by then I'll have things figured out... There's something to be said about the perspective you get when giving advice - objectivity, you know.
Author DiorAddict Posted April 25, 2004 Author Posted April 25, 2004 yeah, don't we all wish we had the answers to everything? lol

Can I do that??? The idea of using hypno-therapy in order to get over an ex, to me, sounds ridiculous. I believe it would be a waste of money and time. After a while, you will get over your ex on your own, as this is how life works. I do not believe it is possible to "erase" anything from your memory on purpose, but I am not as informed about these things as I would like to be. Perhaps it is possible. I believe erasing any memory would be unethical, however, and that if you succeeded in doing so you would lose a bit of yourself in the process. To live is to struggle. Pain is a part of life. Do you want to live, or do you want to run away? By taking this easy way out you might only be limiting yourself.
Author DiorAddict Posted April 25, 2004 Author Posted April 25, 2004 I know, I know. I'm just looking for an easy way out really. I would undoubtedly loose a greal deal of myself as you've said. I just want to feel better! I'm glad I have no desire to contact him. I guess that's a step! =) Now I just need to accept the fact that he feels the same and has no desire to contact ME!
