Ok, I have a fear of being hypnotized. I have been afraid of hypnosis since December 4, 2014. Please tell me if you have any similar experiences. I hope I'm not alone with this phobia...

I started to be afraid of hypnosis when I saw a game where a character is controlled with a mind control helmet/headband... I think this is what caused me to fear hypnosis and hypnotic trance.

I think you may be able to help me overcome this phobia... Also, if any of you experience a fear of being hypnotized, being in a trance, or something similar, then maybe you can share your experience with me. Thank you.

Hi Mephilia,

Unfortunately with game shows etc, there is often alot of things performed which can result in people feeling out of control, or lack of during a trance session.

If you google NLP, or Neuro Linguistic Programming, a phobia can be helped using this, which is less trance based. What is it about it that scares you, or makes you freaked. I would be interested to here
