Psychic hypnotises man into selling all his possessions and give her money.

[superstarz]

Ok so i couldnt fit it all in the title,

So basically a man went to a psycich for a reading, and she hypnotized him into leaving his wife, falling in love with her and selling all his possessions and giving her all his money.

He also arranged for his wages to be paid into her account and then handed in his notice at the Barking insulation firm after she told him he wasn't earning enough.

what i want to ask is do you believe that hypnotism can do this to you?
or is this man just stupid

Someone should have just told him to... go to bed.

I like how his name is "Gotobed"

[Very Tired]

Oldest excuse in the book.

Found hypnotist on facebook, sounds to me like he's just dumb.

[Chirri]

She's a witch who cast a spell on him, clearly. <_<

But srsly, hypnotism's not supposed to be able to get you to do anything you wouldn't already be willing to do. I'd buy brain washing and long term conditioning before hypnotism in terms of things you wouldn't rationally want to do.

No, it sounds more like stupid than hypnotism. You don't have to have aspects of your subconsciousness manipulated in order to ruin your life.

No, Hypnotism can not do this to you.

Hypnotism is nothing more than suggestion, the measure of control it has over you is determined by how suggestible you as a person are. A hypnotist can command you to do something through suggestion, if you really don't wan't to do it then you won't. The only thing a Hypnotist can make you do are things you are willing to do.

Blowjobs can be hypnotic.

Really, hypnotysism is up there with big foot hunters, alien anal probing and ghost chasers in my book. I'm not buying this claim. Psychics also are bullshit.

Psychics are bullshit, hypnotism is not.

Hypnotism is a real thing, however the media and fiction grossly overplay the effect and control that it can achieve.

His wife is getting back together with him? Why? I don't think I'd so much as speak to him again.

Hypnotism isn't that effective, sorry. Sounds more like an excuse to me.

Strangely similar to the storyline in Trance by Danny Boyle... great film if you've not seen it btw guys.

I belive it's used as a form of therapy, right?

Anyway, it seems more like the guy was just obsessed with her, trying to buy her affection and it fell apart. Now he's trying to save face by claiming it was her doing.

Isn't hypnotism only supposed to work on people who are willing to cooperate? Or does it also work on stupid people, if this is the case, 80% of humanity may become victim of such frauds

Hypnotism only works if you're a suggestible person who is willing to do the command given to you.

Hypnotism doesn't work on everyone and they can't force you to do something you wouldn't normally do or be willing to do.

[Kalis]

This is clearly a made up story, as neither of them are orange enough to come from Essex.

[Puck]

It can be, but it is an inefficient form of therapy because hypnotism is a form suggestibility. The hypnotist often runs the chance of implanting false memories. For example, there are a lot of people who believe they were molested as children when they were younger due to a hypnotist mistakingly implanting that memory there via suggestion.

[Garnier Fructis]

Hypnosis only works if you want it to work. That's a polite way of saying that hypnosis is bullshit. This man was just a colossal dumb-ass.

[superstarz]

this story reminds me of the story of the white woman who had a black baby(her husband was white)
and blamed it on watching 3d porno, saying she probably fell pregnant by watching it.

her husband believed her saying "with all the technology these days, you dont know"
