What is Anxiety

Unlike worry which is an appropriate response to life's circumstances, such as losing a job, anxiety lingers and lasts beyond theses circumstances.

Contrary other emotions that we feel on an everyday basis, anxiety seems to come from nowhere. When we are sad, we know why we feel sad. When we are happy, we know why we are happy. With anxiety however it is if it comes from nowhere, it is something inside of us but outside our control.

Anxiety does have a cause, just like our other emotions, albeit unknown to us consciously. This is why those who suffer from anxiety often find it very difficult to explain why they are feeling the way they do.

We humans do not like the unknown and the unknown reason behind our anxiety is no exception. As a result, our minds attempt to either relate our anxiety to something in the real world or symptoms are created. This could result in the formation of a phobia, compulsions, obsessions, bodily symptoms, etc.. The formless free-floating anxiety now has form and most importantly it has a reason.

The symptoms created are just as difficult to explain to those suffering from them as the anxiety that is causing them. “I've just always been this way”, “I just need to do it”, “I am not sure, it just happens'”, etc... The reason for our inability to explain it is because we really do not know why it is happening. If we did, the anxiety would disappear along with the symptoms created.

Many suffering from anxiety or its related symptoms feel that their situation is hopeless and could not imagine how anything could help them overcome their suffering. They have tried everything and nothing seems to help. Everything that they have done however, is usually done with regard to their symptoms and the root of their problem is not affected.

Why traditional hypnotherapy is not recommended for Anxiety:

Traditional hypnotherapy (also known as Suggestion Therapy) falls short because it deals only with the symptom and not the cause. In traditional hypnotherapy your anxiety would be suggested away under hypnosis with suggestions like 'you feel calm and at ease at things that previously upset you'. While you will probably leave the hypnotherapist feeling less anxious and your anxiety diminished, the originating cause of your anxiety, the bottled-up unconscious emotions have not been addressed.

Because the unconscious emotions are still there, they will find an 'outlet'. So you may not experience your anxiety as often, but now you may fear being in crowds for example. This is known as symptom substitution and is a very real phenomenon.

Worse yet, suggestions from a hypnotherapist don't always last forever, so in a few months time, your anxiety may well return.

For these reasons, traditional hypnotherapy (suggestion therapy) is not recommended for anxiety.
