The Antidote
What Helps
- Small, purposeful activities (behavioural activation) can help shift mood over time—especially when basic self-care (sleep, movement, nutrition) is prioritized.
- Thought restructuring involves challenging and reframing unhelpful beliefs to gain perspective and emotional distance.
- Moving from perfectionism to “good-enough” progress—small, actionable steps build motivation and a sense of identity over time.
- Social connection is key—trustworthy relationships provide grounding, security, and emotional resilience.
HOW HYPNOSIS CAN HELPS
Hypnosis can help alleviate depression by changing negative thought patterns and promoting deep relaxation. During sessions, individuals enter a relaxed state, allowing their subconscious to accept positive suggestions, which can shift beliefs and reduce repetitive negative thinking.
It also calms the nervous system, easing emotional triggers and physical tension that contribute to depressive moods. This relaxation is key to preventing relapse into depression.
Additionally, hypnosis encourages motivation through guided imagery, helping individuals visualize engaging in uplifting activities like socializing and exercising. It builds emotional strength and self-worth, enhancing confidence and promoting control, which counteract the inactivity often associated with depression.
For optimal results, hypnosis should be integrated into a comprehensive treatment plan that includes therapy and lifestyle changes. Working with qualified professionals is essential, especially for those with severe symptoms or complex mental health issues.
