I'm a senior citizen. Have done pot off-and-on for many decades. I live in a location within a culture where pot is still not accepted as legit - and certainly not legal. Drug tests and lie detector tests still check for pot use. I'm now a writer of fiction and humor. I'm frequently looking for creative ideas. Certain varieties of pot are noted for enhancing that. I've often considered that hypnosis might serve as a tool to help. I make some assumptions. 1. You probably could not feel or experience something you've never actually done before. Example, someone without musical training probably would be unable to play a musical instrument under hypnosis. 2. People who have never consumed AK-47 variety of pot probably could not feel like they were under the influence of that variety of pot using hypnotic suggestion. 3. Most have seen or heard of stage hypnotists that can place people under a hypnotic trance while they are on stage. Then post hypnotic suggestion can be used to "COMMAND" them to feel or think something. The question is are such behaviors of only short-term effectiveness? Could someone be given a verbal or physical code that would make someone feel "stoned" for either some period of time or until the person responding to the post hypnotic suggestion self-terminates that artificial trance on their own - again using a code or other signal. 4. Audio and video methods seem to restrict people to feel "stoned" only while they are watching and listening to the media. And most people who have used these indicate the depth of the high is very light and of short duration. Smoking pot is hard on the lungs and other tissue involved in inhalation of the smoke. Smoking or making use of edibles are effective for many - but their effects cannot be ended quickly - in an emergency, for example. Costs are going up. Professional hypnotist may see this as frivolous or an unprofessional/unethical use of hypnosis. Scam artists might promise something to make a buck. My goal: 1. Use self-hypnosis (or the skill of a professional hypno-therapist) to plant the post hypnotic behavior. 2. Have a code/trigger to self-induce the trance state of high. In the best of circumstances, establish different triggers/codes to induce "highs" that mimic the effects of different varieties of pot. Thus, a party high, or peaceful high or a creative high could be attained - depending on the desire of the user. 3. A fail-safe code should be available to safely end the high almost immediately. 4. A "high" would become the state of mind. It would cause me to react to conditioners like I would while I was under the influence of real pot. Having the very same behaviors every single time would not be a goal. 5. Any high achieved would be of a relatively finite duration - say, 30, 45 or 60 minutes. And it would end with me feeling fine. So - there is my verbose introductory proposal. I anticipate some will say that what I am seeking is impossible. And I accept that as a definite possibility. But I also consider that many would see the potential positives. With that long-winded statement, I open this thread to commentary from any and all. The Organ Grinder
a fictitious comedy about your post may work your way ...lol 1: the above notes 2: the interaction 3: the resolution good luck ps I'm on something similar but not the 'weed'
You're onto something, but here's the thing. You don't need hypnosis to create the stoned state without pot, YOU'RE already able to to do that. Cannabis can be seen as a kind of 'permission slip'. You're effectively giving yourself permission to feel the effects of it, alter your frequency, expand consciousness, but it is still YOU who are doing it. You can go back into that state without needing the plant if you practice doing so. The idea is that you practice feeling and holding that state using less and less weed, training yourself to go into that state at will. Call it a kind of meditation practice. The secret is to use less of the helper and more of yourself. You go to the state you want, rather than bring the state to you by using more. It takes time and intention, but you can feel very similar without using at all. Having a great idea while high and talking about it, then when straight talking about it again. You should begin to feel your consciousness shifting a little in that direction, the idea, the passion, taking over.
I agree I've used weed in conjunction with meditation bs learned how to feel and control subtle energies now I can do all types of shyt science says you can't. Learn to feel the subtle energies reconnect with the universe expand yur awareness and you'll be able to do a lot more than feel high without weed. Oh yea raise your frequency which weed does automatically but u can do manually with thoughts and intention. Don't doubt what yur intuition tells you and kno thyself it's mad important cuz others can fuk with u in the etheric world and try to make u do stuff u normally wouldn't.

Excellent post. Now, you can't just throw a line in like... And not be asked to elaborate on what you are referring to? Lol. People need to hear what is possible from someone who knows; helps inspire them. I'm interested if nobody else is.
I'd like to hear more about this myself. I have suspected that, and experience doubt a lot. Do you have any suggestions as to how to hold onto the knowing of thyself, to solidify it so that it isn't possible to fall back into doubt?
