subject: Hypnosis For Depression [print this page] There are various treatments for depression, such as meditation, acquired through a doctor, etc. It may require ongoing monitoring and care over a period of time.
As hypnotherapists, I strongly recommend on our recordings that you see a doctor beforehand, particularly if you suffer from severe depression. I would expect other ethical hypnotherapist's to do the same.
These days more and more famous hypnotists have come to surface and are taking specialized classes for people who wish to learn the art or fruitful purposes, of course these classes are the best way in which anyone can learn this technique but the only problem, here is that, it is not that easy to find these trained teachers and also there is a possibility that you will not be qualified to take the class. At the same time, there is also a problem with the fact that these special classes conducted by famous hypnotists are extremely expensive and not every one of us can afford them.
What we can do with recordings, however, is help with the effects of depression. I believe that suggestion and relaxation can be useful and helpful to people suffering any type of disease or medical ailment. It isn't a cure or treatment for the disease itself, but more like a coping mechanism to help with the effects of the ailment in daily life.
I believe that hypnotherapy can help deal with the effects of depression, but it is not a substitute for appropriate medical care. If you think you are suffering from depression, you should immediately seek appropriate medical care for the condition.
