Hypnotherapy anyone?

Do you use Hypnotherapy for therapy sessions?

If yes, let us know about the positive effects. Thru the years I've been Hypnotized to help with high blood pressure, an emotional divorce and more. It worked each time.

The HMO found someone with experience in Hypnosis, after a 2 yr search. She avoids it and says she doesn't think it will work since I'm so resistant to going out in the world while suffering with anxiety, panic and physical ailments.

Hi marheart.. I went to a hypnotherapist years ago and still find it very comforting

to this day. I listen to hypnotherapy on YouTube. I was given the suggestion during

treatment to respond whenever I heard or saw the numbers 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1

Even just typing the numbers brings me into a calm state. Watching the seconds go

down on my microwave do the same thing as well as when in an elevator going down.

I can't say enough in how hypnotherapy worked well for me. You won't know unless

you try it. Wish you well :) xx

Oh, thank you for the encouragement.

The escalating from anxiety to panic has been a horrible week+. Now I understand why depression is a definite part of the disease.

I see the therapist on Wed. She doesn't think it will help. However, she was hired into the HMO because I requested a Hypnotherapist and it took them 2 yrs. to find her.

I intend to request it again from her. We both have to believe in it, for it to work in a positive manner.

I believe in it. She is the one with the practice and the skills to either go negative or positive.

Hi

My aunt was a hypnotist and she help me quit smoking. 9 years ago.

Very positive results

Good luck!

You need to bear in mind there are some rubbish hypnotherapists and some excellent ones

Also some people will go under easily whilst others don't, that's why stage hypnotists will invite lots of people on your the stage and reduce it down to the most suggestible people
