hypnotherapy anyone? ...

I'm considering having hypno for something i've had a lifetime of issues with ... speaking italian. long story short it was my first language but as a child was conditioned by my father to only speak english (he didnt like that he couldnt understand me) and since then i can understand a fair amount but i cant talk it and i've tried everything & as a last resort I'm now looking into hypnotherapy so i'm researching for a good practice in london somewhere.

what i wanted to ask was is there anything you would consider hypnotherapy for?
or have you HAD hypnotherapy?
did it work? would you recommend it?

Sydney You can lead the whore to culture but you can't make her think!

some people at work had hypnotherapy for stopping smoking and it worked really well it was quite a while ago and only one of them has resumed smoking.

Not sure if it would work for the kind of thing that you are after but it may be worth a try. Try to find a hypnotherapist who's recomended by someone yuo know. Like fortunetellers and tarot readers etc some are cowboys so its always best to have recommendation from someone you trust

Rally We've heard that a million monkeys at a million keyboards could produce the complete works of Shakespeare; now, thanks to the Internet, we know that is not true.

I've a friend who does hypnotherapy but she's moved to Fuerteventura so no help there! Certainly helps people to stop smoking but costs a packet.

There must be an association or guild or something...

like this one?

hey, im actually looking into getting hypnotherapy myself, and im finding it so hard to decide where to go just because no-one seems to have tried it!! i really want to go to improve my confidence...im very wary though, i don't want anyone dodgy to mess with my head!!

Ferretgirl Make something idiot-proof and they will make a better idiot

I had hynotherapy to try to help a stomach problem. It didn't really help that much though, i don't know whether it was because i was a bit young (14 - i couldn't keep still for long enough lol)

One thing it did really help with though was teaching me how to relax and empty my head. Those techniques i still use today when i can't sleep because all i can do is think when i'm stressed lol. So i did gain something out of it

I know MKF tried it some time ago to give up smoking and found it to be utterly useless. I think you have to believe it's actually doing some good. It's the placebo effect I guess.

I've been considering hypnotherapy to try and help me to give up smoking, well that and acupuncture. *Sigh*

Lack of willpower though makes me too lazy to do anything about it
