Do You Feel Stuck and Unable to Move Forwards?
If you’re feeling stuck in the mire of low mood and unable to move forward, you’re not alone. Low mood and depression are more than just the normal ups and downs of life. While it’s common to feel down about specific life events, when low mood persists over weeks or months, it can become overwhelming and difficult to manage. Simple tasks, like getting out of bed or brushing your teeth, can feel like monumental challenges.
Understanding Depression and Low Mood
When you’re experiencing depression, you can feel like you’re losing all interest in life, sapping your energy and motivation. Everything can feel like an uphill battle. Sleep disturbances are common, with many people waking up in the middle of the night—often at 3 a.m.—feeling isolated and unable to fall back asleep.
Depression can often go hand-in-hand with anxiety, creating a “double whammy” of mental health challenges. It can make it hard to find the motivation to move forward, leaving you feeling stuck and overwhelmed. Even if you’ve been prescribed antidepressants, they may not always be effective, as the prescription of antidepressant medication is not an exact science. If you’re seeking a complementary approach, hypnotherapy might just provide the support you’ve been looking for.
A Path to Coping with Symptoms
Solution-focussed hypnotherapy is a complementary therapy that can help you understand the underlying causes of your problems. Hypnotherapy gives you back a sense of control, allowing you to take actionable steps forwards. This form of therapy works by combining the benefits of hypnosis and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to help you make meaningful changes in your life.
One of the key aspects of hypnotherapy is improving your sleep patterns. By restoring healthy sleep, you’ll wake up feeling more refreshed and energized. It also plays a key role in coping with anxiety, which so often accompanies low mood. Each week, we’ll take small steps together to help you regain your motivation and start feeling like yourself again. Many clients are surprised by how quickly they begin to notice improvements, and this is often related to improvements in sleep patterns and anxiety levels, as well as thinking patterns.
