Overcome Depression

“Depression affects one in five people at some point in their lives. Anyone can get low at times, but with depression, the feelings don’t go away quickly or become so bad they interfere with everyday life”.The Royal College of Psychiatrists

Overcoming Depression

They say that depression will overtake heart disease and cancer as being the most debilitating disease in the west. However it is not as bleak as it sounds. Depression isn’t an absolute – it’s not simply a case of either you’re depressed or you’re not, our feelings can and do change on a moment by moment basis and a great deal of that control is in our own hands. I have helped many people through this it’s a very common experience and you will come through it too, probably stronger and more able to cope than before so keep hopeful.

There may be an obvious reason for becoming depressed, sometimes there seems to be no explanation. There is usually more than one cause and different people have different reasons. What is common though is a set pattern of thinking and that is one of the first things we can change together. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy applied through hypnosis can help to overcome the powerful negative thoughts that are part of depression. Many clients report a remarkable turn around after the first session due to having spoken about their feelings in private to a sympathetic listener.

Symptoms of depression include:

  • Losing interest in life
  • Finding it harder to make decisions
  • Not coping with things that used to be manageable
  • Exhaustion
  • Feeling restless and agitated
  • Loss of appetite and weight
  • Difficulties getting to sleep
