Hypnosis to treat depression?
wondering what others thought of it.
Is it good enough to help reduce psych meds or go get off psych meds?

I had a positive experience with it, and thought it was pretty powerful. But it didn't become a replacement for my meds.
I only went twice. Maybe it would have been a different outcome had I stuck with it.
Why not give it a try?

Just wondering what others experiences have been.
I have to tape it and replay it. I don't have a smart or Iphone or a tape recorder.
I hope my apple laptop is enough. I've been practicing with the photobooth on the laptop but i wish I could just use audio recording but can't figure out how to use that on the laptop.
