I am sorry to hear about your earlier troubled times dealing with and trying to cope with your wife ‘s addiction. You don’t mention what happened to her or your marriage. I am sorry your health suffered so much due to the stress and hope you are in a better place health wise now. It was a very hard road you travelled before hypnotherapy brought you to reason. I fortunately never experienced religious indoctrination as a child and was raised in a freethinking family, but I know most of my friends have been brainwashed from birth. I no longer discuss their religious beliefs with them because it is always a circular argument that always comes down to having blind faith. I don’t understand how otherwise highly intelligent people can believe so fervently and without any credulity, but I think it is so deeply ingrained in them not to question it that they have lost the ability to look at it critically. I can see how only hypnosis could reach deep into their subconscious and bring out these doubts which they have been trained to suppress.

I had one hypnosis session back in the 80's. I quit smoking afterwards. Immediately.. It worked for me

Good for you!

I see that you're new here, and this website has a bit of a learning curve.

For members who are open to dating, certain thumbnails and profiles have a heart symbol on them with a percentage. This identifies which members are open to dating, and the percent shows approximately how compatible others are with them.

You can improve your website score in general by uploading a clear photo of your face, answering all the profile questions and writing a bio, which also earns website points, and helps other members get to know you.

Commenting on posts and writing your own posts earns more points. At level two you can private message people, and at level eight you get an agnostic T-shirt.

If you want to date, the website uses profile algorithms to find member matches, so the more details one includes, the better the match.

Many people prefer to see a written profile talking about interests, hobbies, and backgrounds that can be quickly perused to find others who are compatible with them.

In case you didn't know yet, to find members near you, click on the "Browse" button at the top of the page, then on "Members," and enter your preferred search parameters.
Click on the "Discuss" button, then "Nearby" to find members near you also.
Or click on the "About" button at the top left of the page to find links to FAQ or the website tutorial.
Points are now being given to level 3+ members who chat. You can see chat rooms on the group main page or at [agnostic.com].
