Almost 3 years ago when we moved here to FLORIDA I
had to get a new therapist. My SIL was friends with one.
I went and expected the same old "talk therapy" which was
good don't get me wrong-------- BUT he told me without
going into my subconscious he could not help me too much!!
In this time my father and sister passed away, my son who has
schizoprhenia is a constant worry, leaving my job I LOVED to
retire, leaving my friends in NY were producing a great amount
of stress and panic!!
He began with getting to know me type discussions about things
that were happening in my life- he suggested I keep a journal!
He talked about hypnosis a great deal with me during the first
2 months--- sooooooo I decided WHY NOT??!!!
He had told me I would be completely AWARE of what was going on,
I would feel RELAXED, I would learn to welcome the PEACE of it!!
ALL THESE ARE SO TRUE!!! I have learned to accept myself and have
learned to enjoy ME!!! Something I NEVER THOUGHT I COULD DO!
I KNOW without a doubt that his therapy has changed my life for
the better!! I listen to the tapes he makes during my hypnosis
every day! I find them so relaxing and helpful.
During hypnosis in the beginning I was afraid of what I might say
or do------ no problem I am TOO RELAXED TO TALK!! Actually HE
DOES THE TALKING------ ridding me of the "fears" reminding me how
strong I am etc.
During hypnosis I go to a safe and peaceful "place" in my mind---
I am now able to find that place by myself thus avoiding panic!!
I have survived a CRUISE with no panic, being without my hubby
for 2 weeks and driving farther and farther from my safety zone!!
If you have any questions feel free to ask me!! IT WORKS!!! HUGS! Judy

Thanks for sharing, Judy. I think that all of the board needs to know that there are options out there. I am glad that the hypnosis has been successful for you. I think the cruise was quite a challenge & knowing you did it, is inspiration to everyone. Not to mention an experience that you will have with you forever! Wishing you continued success! (((hugs))) jan
