I have always wondered what it would be like to be hypnotized using self hypnosis. I have tried the youtube videos and those don’t work for me lol. I don’t want to download any software. Any suggestions?

It is definitely possible to be hypnotised without a hypnotist or a software. Actually hypnosis is nothing else but a self hypnosis, sometimes guided from the outside. Think about the difference between training alone in the gym and being aided by a trainer that can push you to do more than otherwise might. However as you’ve never been hypnotised before there is no way you could do out of the blue. More than anything else you must understand the ideas behind hypnosis - and of course you don’t get from video alone. You may believe that you can totally relax your body just from willing it but you need to deeply know in your body that it’s possible. and with no relaxation you cannot be hypnotised. In my experience learning from a book with audio material is the best way to catch the main principles of hypnosis. You can find more information about it in http://www.ehypnoticTrance.com .
Good Luck!
