Hypnosis and hypnotherapy for depression

Depression can manifest itself in many ways a person can feel sad, unhappy even miserable, some people who suffer with depression can even say they don’t know why they have the depression and that they have a good life and have no reason to feel depressed, they just can’t understand why they feel down all the time and have the depression. Others can point to the very cause of the depression, perhaps that event was along time in the past but they just can’t seem to lift this feeling.

It can feel like a dark cloud looming over them or a heavy burden on their shoulders. When they try and tell someone they feel depressed the usual advice they are given is ‘just snap out of it’, or ‘you’ll be fine’, ‘try looking on the bright side of things’ or ‘just pull yourself together’ and this only makes the person feel worse, feeling alone as though no one really understands them. A person with depression can even be an expert at hiding their feelings wearing a mask on the outside, but secretly feeling different on the inside.

They are in a cycle of perpetuating depression often have been using anti-depressants for a long period of time, which may or may not to some extend have masked the problems but the underlying feelings remain.
