Reduce Anxiety and Relax with Hypnotherapy in Brighton, Hove & Lewes

General Anxiety

Generalised anxiety (aka General Anxiety Disorder or GAD) refers to excessive worry about everyday areas of life such as family, work, relationships, health and finances that tends to lead to the worrier to a constant state of fear and dread.

Usually people feel that the worry serves the purpose of helping to prepare for the worst case scenario. This often causes feelings of anxiety about relaxing and thus it perpetuates itself to the point that you start to feel worried when you’re not feeling worried!

It can breakdown confidence, stop you from achieving goals and hugely affect daily functioning. Depression, tiredness and irritability often follow general anxiety due to a prolonged state of high alert, and you may have found yourself increasingly avoiding situations.

In addition there are a number of physical symptoms such as:

Muscle tension
Headaches
Sweating
Shakes
Difficulty concentrating
Sickness & Nausea
Frequently going to the toilet, or having the sense of wanting to go
Trouble falling or staying asleep

It is common that people see their G.P. suffering the physical symptoms but find little explanation, or perhaps a diagnosis of I.B.S.

If anxiety has hijacked you then you may not feel like your old self anymore and if any of this sounds familiar, then perhaps it’s time to do something about it.

Hypnotherapy can help you to relax deeply. This helps to deactivate the fight and flight response triggered by anxiety and has a marvellous affect on the digestive system.

By adapting the catastrophic thinking style and facing the situations you used to avoid, you can let go of excessive worry and anxiety.

Social Anxiety

Social Anxiety (aka Social Phobia) is underlined by a strong fear of being judged, criticised or watched by others.

If you have been experiencing this then you will probably hold a belief that you will make certain mistakes and be humiliated or embarrassed in public which can include specific fears around:

Being the centre of attention
Eating or drinking in front of others
Writing or working around others
Interacting with people such as dating or going to parties
Asking questions or presenting in groups
Using public toilets
Talking on the telephone

Anxiety about upcoming social situations will often start days or weeks before an event causing difficulty concentrating, muscle tension, headaches and trouble falling or staying asleep. In addition to this you may feel nauseous and sick with frequent visits to the toilet.

While in social situations you may notice sweating, shaking, blushing, mental blankness & confusion, as well as pounding heart, muscle tension, upset stomach and diarrhoea. It can also lead to Panic Attacks.

Avoidance of social situations reinforces the anxiety and in more extreme cases lead to agoraphobia (fear of leaving the house).

You may sense feel that the fear is irrational, but despite this it is still difficult to overcome. Sometimes it can be benefical to develop increased social skills.

I use a combination of Hypnotherapy with CBT, which has shown to be more useful than either treatment modality alone.

By challenging thoughts and beliefs, use of behavioural experiments and creative imagination techniques you may find yourself able to overcome the blocks that have been holding you back.
