Sahara: how did you feel after realizing you were were hypnotized without knowing it? Forgive me, if you have already answered this question. As soon as I finish typing I’m going to do a search and see if I can find more information that you may have provided. I was devastated at the realization that I had been hypnotized for months and maybe years without knowing it. I think the description Corboy gave of thr guru’s tactics and the subject’s responsive feelings are accurate in any abusive relationship whether hypnosis is used or not. Unfortunately, I think with hypnosis it can be far more devastating. I can’t remember too much but during trance I felt a lot of anger and abuse and trauma. From the research I have done it seems that this is supposed to form an addiction to the perpetrator and create a dependence on the part of the victim to the protection of the perpetrator from the trauma. I hope this makes sense. I am trying to understand what has happened. What is additionally frustrating to me is that I have amnesia for most of the trances. People have told me that I am showing signs of dissociation and I really don’t know what this means.
