**Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of accidental death and multiple suicides of minors** A beloved high school principal, trusted by students and parents alike, begins using hypnosis to help teens with anxiety, performance, and pain. Sounds harmless… until we realize just how deep those sessions go. Closed doors. Altered states. Missing memories. And a chilling question: what happens when someone else starts rewiring your mind? As we unravel the stories of three students who all sat in that office, closed their eyes, and never got to tell their full story, things take a tragic turn. Students exhibit trance-like behavior, strange emotional detachment, depressive states and out of character decision making. It’s a devastating case that raises a difficult question about trust, authority, and the unseen impact of suggestion.
