So...this is going to sound weird and maybe a little funny. I have my own suspicions about what happned and I want your answers to double check. Ok...I play piano and am a piano teacher. Recently I have been practicing for a performance and have been very nervous..so nervous I couldn't concentrate and play well. My bf is an english teacher and part time stage hypnotist. He suggested that he hypnotize me not to be so nervous. Well he came over and he was able to hypnotize me (very quickly..people who play music ae susceptable) Anyway..I was not nervous anymore and played fine..the thing is..when I woke up from hypnosis I found that my feet were really sticky feeling. I didn;t remember much from hypnosis and had him tape the session..but nothing could explain my sticky bare feet. So...what do you think happend? Help a girl out. Thanks

Something strange, but not dangerous happened.
I am not a doctor, but it sounds like somehow your nervousness didn't want to go away so it expressed itself in another fashion; like sticky feet.
I don't know a lot about hypnotizism but it can't make you do something that down deep you want to do. If you try to hypnotize someone to shoot another person then most people won't do it, but a trained sniper could. So hypnotizim rarely harms a person, it might embarasse them a lot though.
Or it could be just that you started sweating and your feet got sticky from that. It could be that you just noticed you had stick feet after the session. The main thing is can you perform without being nervous? Can you deal with having sticky feet on the stage? If so then I wouldn't worry about it too much.
The human mind is a very complex creation and no two minds are exactly the same. It is very hard to figure the subconscious out. Freud had the theory that your subconscious was driven by sexual needs, which may or may not be true. He was the first doctor to try and treat the subconscious.

umm, maybe its because while u were sleeping, the hypnotism disappeared, and all the nervousness u were holding in, got let out while u were sleeping. And then u started sweating at ure feet, and when u woke up, u found that they were sticky :D wild guess

When we are nervous, our feet and hands sweat.

You stepped on something sticky, or it was one of your bf's procedure. ;)
