Hi Rhea

How did you get on with your therapy?

I haven't tried hypnotherapy but have been working with a psychologist weekly for the last 10mths. We have combined EMDR therapy with talking therapy & meds, all have help tremendously. I was diagnosed with PTSD in Nov 08, I no longer have panic attacks & my anxiety, depression & ptsd symptoms are manageable with the relaxation techniques she has taught me.

Good luck with your therapy, its hard work, i naively thought my psych would be able to wave a magic wand over me & few weeks later I would be fine. Wrong!! She made it very clear from the start that my recovery was in my hands, she would guide and support me through it but it would be me doing the work. Like you I am having to pay privately (long waiting list in bristol) but I feel so different than I did a year ago it has been money very well spent.

Take care & stay strong, you can & will get through this!
