have what is called a hypnofetish, meaning I get aroused when I see an attractive person being hypnotized. It's not the mind control aspect, I just like the induction, watching the eyes close and seeing them drift off. I am fine with other sexual stuff and am turned on by normal stuff (aside from this) so..my question is why am I so messed up and should I seek help or is this just harmless. Like...I don't care about the actual hypnosis...I just like the eroticism of the "you are getting sleepy stuff" what should I do. Thanks.

I'm no shrink, but if you wanted a shrink you'd be spending $100 an hour.
So here's my suspicion. The fetish is based on the fantasy of having someone hypnotized and be able to have them perform any act you wish fully under your control. Actually, a pretty good fantasy
To some degree, it is a control thing. Harmless thing and role playing it with a willing partner would probably be a great turn on - for both. But to actually learn hypnosis for the purpose of really having this control would probably not be possible but would not be quite so harmless.

You enjoy this and as long as you are not hurting yourself or someone else, Have a good time. Trust me it's harmless. It's like a foot fetish. Just to reassure you say your married and you cheated on your spouse with someone to practice your fetish and eventually have sex, that is hurting someone else. If your with your spouse and your spouse wants to join in great. If my husband wanted to hypnotize me to turn him on I'd say sure honey let me get the pocket watch! Hope I could help. Your not messed up. " I think I'm getting verrrrry sleepy!" Just kidding:))))) That was meant to be cute, I'm not being mean. I swear.

Unless it's causing problems in your every day life, you're fine. Everyone has issues in some way or another. But if it's complicating your job or something, you should seek help.

I think of all the fetishes I have heard of this one is the most normal. I love to lay in bed next to my hubby and watch him fall asleep. It is very peaceful and I love the thought of him being that comfortable with me. I say find a girl and play "hypnotist" with her. If she plays along... she is your girl!!!!

nothing it is perfectly normal to feel this way as long as you dont act on it and dont hurt any one, thinking some thing and doing some thing are two differnt things, if you do act on it the person you are doing it with has to give you there full consent not be tricked in ot it

Almost everyone has some sort of fetish, so I wouldn't worry about it unless it's really uncontrollable. If you find yourself ever acting on those types of urges, you should consider professional help. Hope this helps! :]
