There is an interesting (and a bit hot) discussion is going on on Reddit. To save you some time, these are the original post and a very good comment, IMHO:
And, indeed, the original post looks like a perfect ad-campaign for Bambi 😆

I’ve never listened to these a day in my life as I’m not really into this kind of stuff, but I talk to a “sissy” who I dominate who’s very much into this. Every time he is exposed to these, his personality switches, he claims to feel good and empty-headed, and it’s almost like I lose him for a few days.
Honestly,I don’t care what he or anybody here does, but I’ve been doing research as to why these are so powerful for some reason. Apparently these tapes can put you at a heightened risk for DID (dissociated identity disorder), schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, and much more.
I should state now, none of this should sound appealing to you, there are other strong Hypnos out there that won’t risk you literally losing your sanity or identity. I’m assuming the general age around here is relatively young, meaning there are lives to live. Why put that at risk?
I now understand that this may have a reverse effect on the people who are deep into this and deluding themselves, but if you are interested in these and haven’t really started yet, I suggest you don’t.
Don’t ask me why this seems to happen particularly with these. I’m just the messenger. If you want more information on all of this, feel free to DM me. In the meantime, take a look at this post, there’s a thousand of them just like this.

EDIT: For the people upset, I clearly stated and said “apparently” insinuating that these are purely anecdotal experiences from people who have claimed that these things have messed them up. Whether or not they were aeady predisposed to these things is something to consider, yes, however I never once claimed these things GIVE you mental illness. I was merely using anecdotes posted by people who have gone down deep in the rabbit hole.
Here is more proof, or evidence to back up my original claim: that these are dangerous without real ACTUAL moderation, and the only person determinant of that is you, so I won’t speak on that.

There are much more, can’t be bothered to link them all. I quite literally said “heightened risk”, but some of you are replying as if I blatantly said “hey this give you x or z” that’s not how stuff works.

If you go to r/BDSM you'll find people who have gotten so invested in that lifestyle that they have completely abandoned regular life in favour of being someone's 24/7 sex slave
This is addictive, but not really any more so masturbating, nicotine or alcohol, and it's not mind control. This can't really make you do anything that you didn't aeady want to do, unless you have no idea what you're getting into, which we on this subreddit prevent by giving people as much information and advice as possible!
This is the same as any enjoyable but somewhat addictive activity. We shouldn't ban Macdonald's or prevent people from going there because we know some people overuse it and get diabetes. Used in the appropriate manner, it is Always fun, safe, and consensual.
99.9% of the people in this kink who post about it completely destroying their life etc are either role-playing, trolling, or wanted that in the first place, so they would have found another way to do it if this didn't exist.
It's okay to not understand the appeal, but just because I don't understand the appeal of Sounding and I know that there are possible dangers involved with Sounding, that doesn't mean I should go to r/sounding and try to convince people out of it. Informing people of the dangers and how to perform the act safely is almost always the best method.
I hope my comment makes sense - I'm not trying to argue, just help you understand it from the POV of someone who enjoys this in a safe way 😊
I'd love to know your sources for your claims that it can increase the likelihood of various mental illnesses, though!
Ps. The link in your post linking to that person's experience after listening for 6 days is.. either fake to try and discredit BS, they massively over/misused the files, or aeady have enough problems that BS had a multiplicative effect upon them. This isn't to say BS isn't potentially harmful, it really is if used incorrectly, but that's why this subreddit exists 😊
