I was under a lot of stress and anxiety after being rejected by a few roles I wanted to work in and didn't get the attention I wanted from my partner at the time, so I was very anxious and depressed. Then my friend saw the Instagram story and asked if I needed professional help as she knew the Back on Track services hadn't really helped with my situation in the past; therefore, I reached out.
I felt very comfortable sharing with you my deepest thoughts and was able to be very honest about how I felt. At first, I was a bit sceptical about the idea of hypnotherapy, but I felt safe throughout all of our sessions.
I had CBT once before, and I didn't feel like I got a lot from the therapy. I have never had the habit of meditating, and I think it was a very suitable and relaxing guide for me. In the beginning, I had trouble listening to music, sleeping and eating, and I started to relax after the first hypnotherapy. Even throughout the sessions, I separated from my partner twice, I was still able to function and sleep fairly well. It was a powerful tool for me to rest better.
I think being in a toxic relationship and not wanting to admit that it was, as I also had responsibilities for my negative emotions and irrational behaviours, led to the breaking point. After realising my anxious attachment style to everyone in my life is ruining my mental health, I decided to make a change and work towards being a confident and secure person, which will make my life so much easier regardless of whether I can keep or save my relationship. As someone who previously learned psychology, I have always had the foundation of how the brain works, but years later, I did not associate any of that knowledge until our session. It helped me start to process things and not dwell on the past that cannot be changed.
I realised the difference between embracing and accepting my imperfections. I used to accept being depressed all the time and being harsh on myself with this condition, not knowing or believing that it can get better once you are determined to change to a better self. Now I truly embrace my bad days and know how to process and respond to these situations. I learned that I don't need reassurance from anyone and that I can make myself happy, confident and empowered.
I would like to thank you again throughout this period and open a new chapter of my life. I never imagined this day would come when I would feel so free from myself and excited for the challenges in my life. I wish you all the best and success in your personal and professional life!
Best wishes,
Carys
