    These patients had higher Hypnotic susceptibility scores than did controls, showing a high susceptibility score to be a good predictor of response to Hypnotic treatment among such patients.

    On one other hand the individual that gets indulged into all these activities is called as

    the place where you need to be (having all the right knowledge in your hands
    not to mention the power).
