Does anyone have any experience with or knowledge about hypnosis as treatment for depression, anxiety, and especially manic depression? I have spoken to some reputable sources who claim they have seen miracles and highly recommend it. I am willing to try almost anything and the worst thing I can imagine happening is that it doesn't work! I am just SOOOO tired of going from drug to drug to dry mouth to lapses in memory to stuttering to drug to drug to slurring my speech...etc!
Thank you!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I think a reputable person would be in a medical establishment, and they would look at you as a whole person. And maybe even work with your PDoc.
Cost a ton and it seemed to work for awhile....didn't smoke or drink for 6 months, but then family probs took over.
I still have all my hypnosis tapes for use whenever I want them.
It was quite expensive and though I believed it helped me in the short term, when I got manic I could no longer sit still long enough to USE the tapes.
Wish I could give you a more definitive answer. Best I can do is say it works, if you do the tapes every day.
I would STRONGLY recommend Reiki.
Look into it and if its offered near you, do a course in it aswell so you can give it to yourself. After I did it I had about two or three months of a completely calm rational stable mind... unmedicated. don't remember the last time i have been that long without a) deciding itd be a good idea to buy a boat or b) deciding itd be a good idea to die.
worth a go innit x
