Hello meno-friends
Question: has anyone tried hypnotherapy CDs and if so, were they are good?
I haven't posted for a while as I've been doing OK recently, even thought meno may be coming to an end
. Main meno-issue is crippling anxiety - health and social and depression, and IBS-type issues brought about by anxiety plus (controlled) palpitations, adrenaline surges and night sweats. I've been working really hard to tackle this, with help of Dr prescribed ADs (escit) plus daily Headspace meditation, Yoga (half hour every day) and focus on good diet, cut out refined sugar (am veggie/vegan). Also recently started the couch to 5k app on my treadmill. So have been coming at this from all sides and to certain extent its worked.
Then, just the other day I had a relapse
Logically, (according to OH who says he only uses logic) this was a one-off incident due to lentils. I won't go into too much detail, but suffice to say there was an 'incident' whilst out walking the dog due to over-consumption previous night of homemade dhal. OK, so it wasn't life-threatening, no one except me and poss OH knew how bad it was and I was within sight on the house, just couldn't get back quick enough. However, now I feel I am going backwards as have started to get the old worries back (which were about this type of thing happening while out, so virtually stopped going anywhere).
I've got a good routine going with all the stuff I just listed but now I'm wondering if hypnotherapy could help this anxiety? I saw the thread discussing 'proper' hypnotherapy but I wondered if anyone had tried hypnotherapy CDs or podcasts? Any good? I saw some on Amazon for IBS, wondered if it was worth a try...
Thanks, BB
