Oh, sorry, that was a misunderstanding of your question on my part. It's not that I don't want to give you the list you were asking for. I got thrown off by how you mentioned to be learning about it for - in your words - a few years. As in, I thought you had already maybe taken some classes on the s...

There would also be the question of how you go about learning hypnosis? As in, do you maybe have a teacher and were just asking here for reference and comparison? Or are you mostly teaching yourself? Since that might make a diference in how you go about each step along the way.

Now that is more specific. Since you asked for it to be in form of a "ranking" or list, let's see. First I'd go with the post-hypnotic suggestions. Simply put, suggestions to be acted upon after the actual trance. They can veritably be considered a fundamental part of hypnosis. If you are ...

Well, simply put, you likely tried too much too soon. I understand you did research on techniques and the likes, which is of course important. But at the same time it poses a little trap. You studied one technique and then expected it to work because "it said so in the book". Now, that mig...

Now to the first and original part of your question. I'm sorry to hear that apparently you ended up putting your faith in the wrong kind of person. Because what that hypnotist had done was immoral in every sense of the word. That said, about him telling you to forget the contents of the session, som...

Wow, from what I could gather from your question you sound like you've been through a lot, either way. Let's see if I can offer a few answers (in hopes this is still relevant). First of all, to your second question, a "prolonged hypnotic state" isn't really something that could happen. But...

Erm, I'm having conflicted thoughts on how to respond to this? For two reasons. First, what prior experience do you have with hypnosis? It is of course not absolutely neccessary to be an expert, but maybe you are aiming too high for now? That is, presuming your question is even still relevant? Assum...

Hey :) Seems we've got one point in common because I registered here just to reply to your question. There were two things I was alarmed about reading your post. First, it made the impression to me like this was more or less your first contact with hypnotism in either form being put into practise? I...
