    Hello,
    I've been a practicing hypnotist for over 5 years now. I primarily do comedy and nightclub shows, but will sometimes sponser a "weight-loss" or "stop-smoking" seminar from time to time.
    I've tested this software package fro the last 3 months now, and I've had outstanding results with it. I've found it works well when I'm flying or traveling. I simply turn on my laptop, plug in my headset, and run the software. I use it for relaxation, concentration and focus, and confidence and motivation sessions. It'a tool like any other. There are no perfect tools, so don't expect this one to answer all your prayers. But it does do what it says it will do. And it does it well. I have recommended it to several clients and friends. Enjoy the gift that is being offered. All negative posters should get some hypnotherapy and improve their self image and be more positive towards life. Remember...tomorrow you die...now what are you going to do with the time left?!?!

    Reviewing 5.3 RC1 (Sep 18, 2005)

    This release wasn't supposed to be submitted to Betanews, mainly because it requires 5.2 to be installed in order for it to work at all (that's why the previous person complained haha; I did this in order to keep it small, and it was mainly just intended for members of the program's Yahoo group). I don't know who submitted it.

    Installed this and on first run it just gave a bunch of errors and wouldn't close until I used Endtask. I then reinstalled it got the same problem again. The creator really needs to go back to the board on this one. I however do like the idea.

    Virtual Hypnotist is the best and most flexible self-hypnosis program ever. No one would say that it is the best possible program, but I would venture to say that it now represents the arrival of software that can be used seriously---maybe WordPerfect would be a good analogy.

    The negative reviews here reflect (1)ignorance of hypnosis: if you are not awakened from hypnosis by the hypnotist---in this case, VH---you either fall asleep or wake up by yourself; except in 19th-century horror stories, no one has ever been "stuck" in hypnosis (though many do remain stuck in ignorance); or (2) the misperception---which would seem to indicate very little time spent with the program before writing a review---that the speech synthesis is part of the program itself. It should be obvious to anyone that VH uses various other applications to do what it does, and being freeware itself, it has to rely on other freeware. Freeware speech synthesis is not that well developed---even the AT&T voices that you have to pay upwards of 30 dollars each for are not that great! It takes work---but quite acceptable results can be generated (I tend to prefer the British voices myself).

    As to the many bugs, mostly minor, found in earlier versions, most that I'm aware of have been fixed in the latest release, version 5.2.

    The most significant lack that needs to be remedied is the sameness of many of the scripts. But I believe that the program now has reached a stage where it will begin to inspire people to fill that gap.
