I found an ad campaign for Samsung that offered to use hypnosis to make you forget you had ever seen your favorite television series, so you could watch it over again and react as though it were the first time, again.
Apparently it had some effect on anywhere between 15-25% of the people who tried it.

The only effect it had on me was a slight "ditzy" feeling for a few hours, but it was relaxing to listen to.

I often wondered if it could be re-worded and re-recorded to make it apply to past relationships, or other uncomfortable memories. I wonder if other techniques could be used to boost its' successful outcome rate.

I think it was called "Unspoil Me".
Look it up, if you're interested in such a thing.

wow, that sounds interesting. i am actually very susceptible to hypnosis. however, it's difficult for me to find people who my body and mind will allow to hypnotize me. when it works, it really, really works, and it's amazing. most of the time, unfortunately, with most hypnotists, i will start to feel excruciating levels of pain that prohibit me from continuing with the hypnosis session. it's wild

i will definitely look that up, thanks for sharing

'Yes' but I also need to remember why I need to avoid them at all costs- so kinda 'no' as well.

No problem. ;)

 

[LesbianCarpetPython]

Yeah, my ex friends. I wish I could go back in time and change things but that's impossible so next best thing is forget about them

 

[onlyanimalsaregood]

yes. people i've met that i wish i never met

True story

 

[OpheliasFlowers]

There are exactly three people who I wish I'd never, ever, ever have met. I think my life would've turned out better (not perfect, but...better) had I never known them or of their existence

 

[Hirokami]

Yes, my life would be a lot easier if I could just forget certain people.

 

[SectOfValtiel]

Yes
So I can move on
But no
Because to forget someone that has had such a huge impact on your life, good or bad, just feels like a disservice to their existence
It feels like forgetting an important lesson and making yourself all the more vulnerable for it

I know from experience that being forgotten is an awful feeling, too, especially by people you really cared about
But if I had the chance to erase my own existence from their memory?
Hell yes, I'd spam that button, half the people Ive met over my lifetime deserve that peace of mind
