So to put it simply, I am like this, and have struggled with hypnosis, never to date having a successful occurrence. I sort of thought I was normal until I read this and then had numerous conversations with friends. His descriptions describe me not quite, but nearly to a T.

When something tells me to imagine something, I always thought it was a metaphor situation rather than a literal thing I needed to do. When something tells me to feel something, same occurrence.

With that in mind, I guess standard inductions would not work, but no one really tries anything different.

So pretty much, is it possible, and if so how?

this would certainly make it more difficult to engage with a lot of hypnosis. you would likely do better with various forms of brainwashing to change your thoughts and behaviors.

when you read a book do you ever find yourself getting so lost in the story that the world around you fades away a bit? alternatively do you ever find that you are unusually disturbed by the sounds of the world around you when you are trying to read?

The Seven Plus or Minus Two induction might work. It's based on the fact that people can only remember from as few as five to, at most, nine things at once. Once you reach your limit, the hypnotist is still adding things for you to remember and reminding you of other things that you have forgotten to remember. As you get more and more confused, you slip into a trance. I know it's been recorded separately, so you could use it in front of any file's Body (the actual suggestions) and a wakener (which wakes you from the trance) to make a complete file you could trance to.
