The single most common problem I help people with is anxiety or panic attacks. A huge number of people suffer with anxiety and Social Anxiety or Social Phobia is THE most common. There are a cluster of anxiety disorders which I explain further down this page along with anxiety symptoms and anxiety treatment.

The great thing to note is that hypnotherapy is incredibly successful and really fast in treating all these anxiety disorders and anxiety attacks, allowing you to live your life free from fear and anxiety symptoms.

Left untreated anxiety can lead to anxiety depression, insomnia, and other physical, emotional and psychological conditions which further impinge on life effecting every aspect of your life ie relationships, work, sex life, social life, parenting responsibilities and schooling, even developing commitment phobia.

This in turn can lead to ‘self-medication’ by turning to ways to make you feel better, for instance, reaching for food or alcohol.

Whether you have suffered for years or your anxiety is more recent it is easily dealt with using hypnotherapy. Come and see me for a free initial consultation.

Anxiety Disorders

Anxiety disorders are very common and affect a large part of the population. They can start at any time from childhood, adolescence, or adulthood and fall into five main groups.

Panic attacks & Panic Disorder
Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
Fears & Phobias (which includes social phobia or social anxiety disorder)
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)

(See also anxiety depression)

You may be suffering from one or more of these and people can suffer panic with any of the anxiety disorders and anxiety disorder symptoms. There are no rules for the pattern of these linked conditions.

All of these disorders are fed by fear. By using hypnotherapy we can quickly break the cycle of fear and get to the root cause of your anxieties, dealing with them so the anxiety symptoms cannot bother you again.

Anxiety Symptoms

The symptoms of anxiety can be crippling and can be accompanied by panic attacks. They can include any of these:

Increased heart rate, sometimes racing or palpitations
Sweating
Shaking visibly or shaking inside
Choking sensations
Chest pain or discomfort
Nausea or abdominal discomfort or diarrhoea
Dizziness
Feeling light-headed or about to faint
Feeling detached or unreal
Fear of going crazy/losing control
Feelings of impending doom
Numbness or tingling sensations
Chills or hot flushes
Feelings of tightness/pain in the head
Neck and shoulder pain or numbness in the face and head
Nightmares
Waking in a panic

If you experience at least four of the panic attack symptoms listed means that you are most probably having a panic attack, less than four and it is more likely to be generalised anxiety. Panic attacks can happen with any of the anxiety-related disorders.

These physical panic attacks symptoms are really unpleasant but it is important to realise that no-one has ever died of these symptoms – they are just feelings.

Anxiety Treatment

There is a very special form of hypnotherapy called Pure Hypnoanalysis which has helped many thousands of people over the years with anxiety. The aim of Pure Hypnoanalysis is not symptom control or trying to manage the problem, the aim is to resolve in COMPLETELY!

Anxiety responds very well to pure Hypnoanalysis.
