I have had extreme social fears for a few years now. However, things started to really get insane when I started to develop this fear of talking to my closest friends in the world. They’re becoming distant and I care about them a lot, but I’m suddenly afraid of the few close friends who I have and can’t keep conversations going with them for two minutes. I actually quickly analyze every single thing I say to them. Sometimes, I can’t even look at them when I see them during school, and it’s hard for me to talk to them through AIM too because I’m so afraid. By the way, I’m not in a clique with all of them if that helps any, as a matter of fact, none of them know each other very well and 2/5 of them don’t even live in this town.
On to the important part: My aunt’s boss hypnotizes people and believes he can cure me with four meetings. This is a miracle to me that I might have this opportunity, and I really think I can be saved. I’d really like to try it out, and if my dad changes his mind and decides to pay for it, here are some questions I have about being hypnotized:
-Can something go wrong?
-Do you think it actually works?
-How does he hypnotize you? Is it scary?
You don’t have to answer all of them. Just tell me anything you know, and feel free to share your experiences.
