Hello. I am an avid reader and lately I haven't been able to visualize anymore at all! I don't know what's wrong with me or mabey it's because I keep telling myself that I can't do it or something like that. Can hypnosis help me visualize again?

sorta writing this fast cause I am racing off to work but one thing that a hypnotist told me is if you think you can't visualize just pretend you can, in actuality you can visualize just for what ever reason you are blocking the process so try changing the goal of it by changing the wording like instead trying to visualize, pretend to visualize.

I have been having the same problem for a while now too. I realized it after someone asked me what I fantasize about and i realized...i don't fantasize! When i try, i see bits and pieces of a scene, but i can't see more than a few seconds at a time. I don't know if this is normal....i'm pretty sure some people can think of something and visualize it from start to finish.
nonsexual example- one morning while making breakfast, i started thinking about it and i tried to visualize me walking from the kitchen to my bedroom. I closed my eyes and tried to see myself walking but i ended up just thinking "ok, i'd turn and take maybe 2 steps to my left then turn and the table is maybe 8 steps away, then 2 steps right, etc." I couldn't see it.
Very frustrating. Any advice would be much appreciated by me and i'm sure Andy!
