2b@1 hypnotherapy

The feelings of sadness and disappointment, for most, are normal every day reactions to the struggles of modern day life. Many people use the word “depression” to explain these kinds of feelings, but depression is much more than this.

People who have suffered from depression describe it as having a feeling of impending doom or living in a black hole. Some depressed people do not have feelings of sadness at all, instead feelings of aggression and anger, especially in men are common.

Whatever the symptom is depression can take over your day to day life, the feelings of helplessness, hopelessness, and worthlessness can be intense and unrelenting, with little, if any, relief.

 

Common manifestations of depression include;

• Poor sleep patterns.  Insomnia or oversleeping

• Loss of energy, feeling tired, lethargic and physically drained

• Feelings of helplessness and hopelessness

• Loss of interest in daily activities

• Loss of appetite or weight changes

• Low tolerance threshold

• Increased feelings of anger, agitation, restlessness and perhaps violence

• Feelings of worthlessness or guilt

• Reckless behaviour, compulsive gambling, excessive consumptions - drink and/or drugs

• A feeling that life isn’t worth living?

Medication can help relieve the symptoms of depression in some people, but they aren’t a cure and many come with drawbacks of their own. 

Relieving depression in the long term requires getting to the source of the problem and this is why hypnotherapy and hypnosis work so well. Hypnotherapy acts at the root cause of your depression helping you to understand why you feel a certain way, what your triggers are for depression, without necessarily having you relive any associated negative experiences.

Hypnotherapy and NLP can teach you techniques that will enable you to reframe any negative thoughts, break old patterns and employ new behavioural skills to help combat depression.
