Hypnosis for anxiety

My friend once underwent hypnosis after a life changing accident left him with depression. He was very sceptical and not the kind of person who would ordinarily believe in hypnosis, but he said the sessions were incredibly effective and helped lift him out of his depression. I guess it all depends on your approach to the idea and your willingness to embrace the experience of hypnosis. If you're at the point that you're even considering the option because you need that level of help, then I think you should try a couple of sessions. You can always call a halt to it if you feel it's not working.
