Doctors tell us that they are expecting to be overwhelmed by patients suffering from OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) over the next few months.
The constant warnings of the danger of disease and the advice to stay clear of others, disinfect constantly and to wash our hands mean that we are all subconsciously being conditioned to be terrified of germs. For some people that conditioning leads of a life where that phobia of germs overwhelms you and makes normal life next to impossible.
Fortunately hypnotherapy can often help you tackling this debilitating condition and restore harmony and balance in your life.
Let me tell you how i was able to help a client I will call Tony - not his real name.
Tony had suffered from OCD for many years. His condition was so severe that he spent hours cleaning his kitchen before and after preparing meals, had to retreat to his home if he got any form of dirt on his clothes, and spotting dog poo on the pavement effectively stopped him walking down the street.
At home he would take off all the clothes he wore in the outside world and had to wash them, twice, with bleach before he could bear to wear them again.
His work took him overseas to countries in the third world where standards of hygene were very different from those in the UK and he became aware that unless he tackled his OCD he would have to give up the job that he loved.
Over just a few sessions we worked together to help him tackling this debilitating condition. As a result his life became much more comfortable and he was able to live virtually free of his old restrictions and overseas travel became a pleasure once again.
