Has anyone tried hypnosis therapy?

What were your results? Did you find it helpful? Did it change your life or was it a waste of money?

I have a friend who swears by it. She started going to help her depression and anxiety. Said it changed her life for the better. So I figured I’d give it a try. I’m trying it for the same reasons. I’ve done traditional talk therapy for many years and didn’t find it helpful at all. I read a study that 6 treatments of hypnosis therapy was found to be more effective than 6 treatments of talk therapy. I’ve done 2 treatments of hypnosis so far and I think it might be helping a bit but hard to tell. Might be too soon to know for sure.

Interesting topic. I recall reading stories about hypnotism being used as a replacement for anesthesia for minor surgeries with some success.
