Hypnotherapy for Depression

We all have our ups and downs.
and as long as the highs and lows are not extreme or protracted, it is considered normal. However, when the lows seem to swallow you up, to cloud your entire life, to manipulate your mind and emotions and even your body, they need to be addressed right away. The longer depression is allowed to continue; many other issues add to the complexities of the illness and bring on the risk of more intense feelings of hopelessness. Depression brings about increased dangers of other health problems as well as more extreme physical symptoms, i.e., insomnia, lethargy, anxiety, aches and pains etc. If you are not enjoying your life because depression suddenly comes over you, seemingly from nowhere like a cold black fog, and prevents you from living a normal healthy and fulfilling life, you need immediate help. If you have been suffering from depression for as long as you can remember, have had recurring bouts of depression, if depression has you in its grip or threatens you from some hidden place within you, then seeking help from Elaine Kissel makes good sense. Elaine Kissel provides hypnotherapy for depression and can design a personalized program to meet your needs.

There are many different kinds of depression.

Reactive – caused by loss through death, or job or relationship losses; and situational changes, stress, mental, physical and/or emotional or physical illness.

Neurotic – Obsessive Compulsive Pattern, a classic model of neurotic depression. A Type of Post-Partum Depression, and other Types of neurotic depression.

Endogenous– Internally generated. These occur when the brain and nervous system (part of the internal person) become disorganized in some way and can no longer function normally. Some doctors call it Organic Depression or a Physical Disturbance of Nervous Function, which it is.
Chemical Depression– as it is often called these days. These can be caused by many things, such as childbirth, post-partum depression, menopause, infections, and glandular disorders as well as injury or other stresses.

Bi-Polar / Manic Depression– the extremes of mental/emotional highs and lows. Bi-Polar: A chemical imbalance. All too often depression is not recognized as such and many ailments can be traced to depression as their origins and vice-versa. So many physical symptoms and behaviors can mask depression and/or increase the sense of futility already being experienced.

Depression can come in many degrees of intensity and time lengths.

Duration of depression can last from short term to seemingly endless bouts. The social withdrawal, the sense of sorrow, lifelessness, and futility can result in suicidal thoughts and tendencies. Both for those suffering and for those close to the one suffering this can be terrifying. The fears of insanity, guilt, feelings of anxiety, anger, and fear that depression brings with it can all be treated and alleviated when these issues are addressed appropriately.
