Suggestive Hypnotism Daily

The will of another is not so easily implanted during hypnotism as has been claimed.While a patient will follow almost any suggestion that may be offered,he readily obeys only commands which are in keeping with his character.If he is commanded to do something he dislikes or which in the waking state would be very repugnant to him, he hesitates, does it very reluctantly, and in extreme cases refuses altogether, often going into hysterics.

It was found at the Charity hospital that one patient absolutely refused to accept a cassock and become a priest. One of Monsieur Richet's patients screamed with pain the moment an amputation was suggested, but almost immediately recognized that it was only a suggestion, and laughed in the midst of her tears. Probably, however,this patient was not completely hypnotized.
