If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.

Notes for future OT posters:

1. Please add the 'open_thread' tag.

2. Check if there is an active Open Thread before posting a new one. (Immediately before; refresh the list-of-threads page before posting.)

3. Open Threads should be posted in Discussion, and not Main.

4. Open Threads should start on Monday, and end on Sunday.

What do you mean when you say "you"?

I have more formal credentials with NLP then with academic psychology.

Even if the entire NLP/hypnosis/seduction/whatever industry is just a giant crackpot convention

I have multiple friends who makes their living in that industry. One of my best friends worked for a while as a salesperson for Bandlers seminars. I don't have friends who have as much friends who have degrees in academic psychology.

I just understands both sides well enough to tell you about the situation we have at the moment.
