I had 10 sessions of hypnotherapy, and it never worked out for me either.
The only thing I can say is that going home after the 2nd session, I felt as if I was in a wonderful state of relaxation. Also during a later session, rather than be put into a trance, I ended falling asleep in the chair! :wink:
It may not of been much of a success for me, but it may be for you. It's certainly worth seriously considering.
