Why doesn’t hypnosis or guided meditation work for everyone?

I’ve tried various guided meditations that work for others. These meditations involve closing the eyes, relaxing, being guided, and seeing something at the end. I try really hard to get a good image in my head. There are many ways I could create the image and I’m not sure how I should do it (especially because I don’t want to create some BS with my imagination) and I actually feel more uncomfortable than relaxed.

Meditation, guided relaxation, and self hypnosis? Is there really a difference?

Can someone settle this dispute for me? Are they all the same…since all are meant to basically help change your outlook/mental well being? Can meditation and/or guided relaxation be used instead of self hypnosis to break bad habits? Or does self hypnosis teach you something different?

Just trying to end a dispute between two friends. **rolling my eyes**
