I have dissociative identity disorder. Can people be hypnotized? By Anonymous | Published on December 18, 2024

I have dissociative personality disorder, a crazy desire to get the approval of others, a strong sense of abandonment, panic, and a tendency to do a lot of things and think in extremes. I can push myself to hell, and when I hate others, I can also push them to hell. I can't feel myself, I'm not clear-headed, and I really want to resolve these things. I will constantly force myself to think about it, but when I seek psychological counseling, I cannot enter hypnosis and enter a state of subconsciousness. The counselor said that I have resistance, but I'm not sure. I've thought a lot about this and can't figure it out. I'm not sure where I'm resisting.

Hello, question asker!

Reading your description, I felt a tightening in my chest. It may be a sense of déjà vu. I'll give the questioner a warm hug.

I want to know how the questioner determined that he has a dissociative personality. Did he take a test at a formal place, or was he diagnosed by a psychologist?

If so, follow the doctor's orders. If not, don't label yourself. Nothing in the world is absolute.

I believe the questioner's experience has caused you to feel this way.

"Desire for recognition," "feeling of abandonment," "self-deprecation," "unable to feel one's own feelings," and "even when hating, one can be ruthless." The questioner must identify where this feeling mainly comes from.

Tell me what kind of strength supports you and allows you to find a breakthrough in such an uncomfortable situation.

I want to know when you didn't feel this way and felt at peace. I also want to know what you did at that time.

Tell me, did the people around you share your feelings and thoughts?

The questioner needs to recognize that these are their resources.

First of all, I want to praise the questioner for being aware of the issue and taking the initiative to find a solution. The questioner has identified the root of the problem and is taking responsibility for it. They are a very wise and kind person. What are your thoughts on this, questioner?

I want to tell the questioner that most people are like us, trapped in their own minds. It's not our fault. It may stem from our family environment and education problems when we were young. We don't feel secure, so this kind of symptom will appear. But we can overcome it.

The questioner came here looking for an answer with certain expectations. So, what are those expectations?

Tell me, how do you feel when you achieve your expectations? And who will be the first to notice your change?

If a miracle happens and your predicament is solved tomorrow, you'll have to take responsibility for making it happen.

Secondly, I want to tell the original poster that people can be hypnotized. I know from experience that hypnosis can be a powerful tool for change. I have learned many genres, but I am especially skilled at hypnosis. Hypnosis is divided into life hypnosis and academic hypnosis.

There are two types of hypnosis in life: positive and negative. When others praise and affirm us, it has a positive effect on our confidence and motivation.

Negative hypnosis is when others deny and accuse us, and we end up believing it.

Many schools of psychology have limitations that make them unsuitable for everyone. Hypnosis is about opening the subconscious mind, allowing you to go back in time, relive previous events, and then the counselor gives you help and encouragement, so that you can become able to help the old you.

While hypnosis may seem simple, there are still many precautions to be taken. The most important thing is trust and whether the client is ready to open up their subconscious. Everyone has their own defenses, even the subconscious mind, which automatically blocks bad memories. When you try to open it, it will have a defense mechanism.

This is why hypnosis first relaxes people.

I don't know the specifics of the questioner's situation, but I'm going to give them a few tips that I know will help them relieve negative emotions.

Meditate.

Meditate every day to empty your mind. It's a great way to relax and unlock the subconscious mind. The stillness during meditation is relaxing and improves concentration. It also helps you become hypnotized.

You can also practice deep breathing, either with your eyes open or closed. Inhale deeply and exhale slowly through your mouth to slow down your mood.

You need to exercise.

If you struggle with yourself, exercise is the best way to relax. Jogging is the best way to release negative emotions, secrete dopamine, and produce a sense of pleasure.

You should also jog, walk fast, play badminton, practice yoga, go hiking, etc.

③Love yourself and accept yourself, no questions asked.

In life, we compare ourselves to others. This makes us feel uncomfortable. We must learn to love ourselves. Only when you love yourself will you respect your own feelings and not need to rely on the approval of others to prove yourself.

Method: Give yourself a hug and a smile every day, and say to yourself, "I love you." When you're feeling down, you don't have to force yourself to do anything; you can cry or find someone to talk to. When you encounter something you don't want to do, you can refuse. Make yourself feel comfortable.

You must believe in yourself and never doubt yourself.

We want to change but can't because we've learned to be helpless. We don't believe in ourselves. Take my situation. Someone I like gave me a study plan. I have to get a certificate within one or two years. I replied, "In my life, there is no must."

This is a clear sign that you don't believe in yourself.

The main thing is that the questioner wants to change. They must believe in themselves and not doubt themselves. If you don't believe in yourself, you won't have the strength to work hard.

Believe in yourself. You are the best, and you can do it. Don't deny yourself.

You can do it! Positive mental suggestion

Everyone encounters different difficulties in life. You can overcome these difficulties by learning to cheer yourself on. The best way to relax is by using positive self-talk. For example, tell yourself every day: I believe in you, I believe in you, you can definitely do it.

Try it for 21 days and you'll see the difference. I'm trying it too.

I want to reassure the original poster that it's okay. As I said earlier, everyone has their own difficulties in life, but we also trap ourselves. We need to solve our own problems ourselves. There's a saying in psychology: we are the experts in solving our own problems.

The questioner should read the following books: Mr. Toad Goes to the Psychologist, Gaining Courage from Being Disliked, Overcoming Inferiority, and You Are the Answer.

The questioner goes to life with questions, finds his or her own breakthrough point, and then goes through it. You will become more and more fulfilled and find a breakthrough.

Come on! Don't give up. You will find your own path to success!

The world and I love you.

Faith Thomas The more one explores different branches of knowledge, the more they can be a guiding star in the constellation of learning.

I understand how overwhelming and confusing these feelings can be. It sounds like you're really struggling with understanding yourself and where this resistance is coming from, but just acknowledging that it's there is a big step.

Trent Jackson Knowledge from various fields is like a toolkit for a resourceful mind.

It's tough when we feel stuck in our own minds, especially with something as complex as dissociative personality disorder. The desire for approval and the fear of abandonment can make everything feel so intense. Maybe finding a different approach or therapist could help you explore these issues in a new way.

Buddy Davis There is no end to learning.

The fact that you're pushing yourself to such extremes shows how much you care about resolving this. It's okay to not have all the answers right away. Sometimes healing takes time and trying different methods until something clicks.

Noah Miller If you don't know the purpose of a thing, you will abuse it or lose it. This is true for success and failure.

It's frustrating when you can't access the state needed for hypnosis during counseling. But remember, therapy is a journey, and not every tool will work for everyone. There are many other techniques that might resonate with you more effectively.

Maeve Anderson Erudition is the art of gathering and integrating knowledge from different corners of the intellectual world.

I hear how deeply you want to resolve these things, and it's clear you're putting in a lot of effort. Resistance can be tricky because it's often unconscious. Perhaps discussing your thoughts and feelings about the process with your counselor could shed some light on what's happening.
