Any one ever had hypnotherapy?

[Worried worrier!]

Hi everyone, i'm just wondering if anyone has ever had hypnotherapy for

phobias
OCD
anxiety
or Panic?

Yes loads of us have!

It is very relaxing but won't cure the panic unless you keep it up and practise the relaxation.

Thanks, it is something i am considering to help me with various issues and i am curious if it's helped people :)

yes I

[janeybaby25]

yes I have had it, its very relaxing, you don't feel out of control (that was one of my fears) & it does help but needs to be kept up to, to help you. PM if you have any questions. x

Im going for my first hypnotherapy and looking forward to it !! Thats the way im going to look at it , the more positive you think about it , the more of a good reaction you get !! I will give everyone feedback to how it goes if anyone like my self to be afraid of it !! :) :)

Don't know if it's available now but 30 years ago I had a NHS psychiatrist who was also a hypnotherapist. He taught me self-hypnosis which I find one of the best ways to deal with anxiety problems.

Hi Tom yeah hypnotherapy is real good but like Nicola said you have to keep practising and listening to it everyday.
You don't need to see a therapist cause alot of them are pricey and can rip u off if not careful, especially the NLP ones
Paul Mckenna has a brilliant website where you can download half an hour of him! Its brilliant. He also does cheap CD's to listen to as well.
Another great CD hypnosis tape which i think is the best i got from "Honeybee"x on NMP and its called "No Fear" by Robert Farago and distributed from " New World Music" The Barn, Becks Green, St Andrews, Beccles, Suffolk NR34 8NB UK
Also www.RapidTransformations.com (http://www.RapidTransformations.com) will send you 3 free
But if self hypnosis is good for you then carry on

Yes I agree with Richie, I have a lot of Paul McKennas tapes and during bad stages I used to listen to them every day as part of my before bed routine. Very relaxing and with lots of positive statements. I have also tried real hypnotherapy but it wasn't for me......I just got really stressed about how much it was costing :)
