Lorraine here have been on the forum a few times to talk about ongoing insomnia which is a massive problem for me . Am about to embark on trying hypnotherapy as I have exhausted all other options without any success. Just wondering wether anyone else out there has given this a try and wether any positive results were achieved as I will be spending a substantial amount on this but is really my last resort.

Sorry to hear you’re struggling to find anything to help with insomnia. @Pisceslady2023 has been asking about insomnia today too. Maybe you could share some ideas.
I’ve never tried hypnotherapy so can’t offer any advice but I really hope, if you decide to try it, that it helps.
Best wishes

I have a consultation next Thurs to discuss wether she thinks she can help I did try acupuncture which didn’t work for me but will certainly let you know wether this helps in any way.

Do the palliative effects of acupuncture arrive immediately or do they take time to build up?
I was under the impression that a single session wasn’t enough to conclude whether the treatments were going to be successful. But then I’m at the opposite end of a spectrum to being knowledgeable about it.
Actually in truth I don’t even know whether it’s palliative or whether it’s effective at removing root cause
I had 2 sessions a week for about 6 weeks without any relief at all then couldn’t afford any more at the time.
That sounds pretty conclusive then
I appreciate everyone’s different so may have positive effect for some same will probably be true of hypnotherapy but will post let others know how i get on .

Hi nigelgos,up to now I’ve just had a consultation to see if she thought she could help. She thought she could at least help to improve things . The 2nd one was more about goals and finding out more about myself. I’m there this afternoon and next Friday for the actual hypnotherapy so will see how that goes before booking anymore so will definitely let u know how that goes.

Yes my sessions are 80 to only had 1 since last posted which was more to do with relaxation and she gave me a cd to take home have another this week before going away for a week as its such a deep and long term problem this insomnia i suppose it could take some time to see any improvements . But will definately keep updating. Good luck if you go ahead.
