I was just reading a thread on /r/AskReddit about people getting hypnotized and it made me think about hypnosis/self-hypnosis and seduction.

Given that hypnosis doesn't make you go out and murder people or force you to do something that you are completely against, it does seem to allow one to drop much of inhibition and act upon the suggestion.

Let's entertain the example of a excruciatingly shy guy going balls out after being hypnotized, only to come back later to watch himself on the video in horror.

What if a guy with approach anxiety were to go under with the suggestion of being able to approach with ease? Self-hypnosis could come in handy for this as well.

So my question is, has anyone ever dealt with hypnotism here?
