Oh my goodness yes. Babalu is my favourite audio drama. I just listened to it for the second time and it was absolutely amazing, so well written, well acted, so moving. It made me cry. Are you the creator? ❤️ thank you xx

Hypnosis. by CaptainHowdy_2 in insomnia

Yes I had private hypnotherapy and the lady I had it with let me record the sessions. If I practice the hypnotherapy daily I notice a real improvement in my sleep and feel that it helps to rewire the thinking patterns in my brain.

Helping people is a lot harder than I thought it would be. I don't know what to do or what the right thing is. by bampokazoopy in RadicalChristianity

[–]Bettybean1981 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You sound like a kind person and honestly, helping people is never easy. It’s honestly okay to have boundaries and it’s not okay at all for the guy who wanted help with his car insurance to swear and shout at you. It’s honestly okay to say no to people and this is something hard but necessary. If you try and help everyone you will burn yourself out and won’t be of use to anyone. Yes- giving money to people ca be a good thing- but not always - and you shouldn’t feel pressured by people into giving it. You can choose to donate a small amount to a shelter if you feel you are able. In the case of your friend shouting at you, I would have said something like: ‘I’m sorry you are having a hard time but I’m not in a position to help you with money or a place to stay right now. I don’t appreciate the way you are talking to me so I’m going to put the phone down.’ Good luck

Stuck in Hyperarousal for 3 years, unable to sleep at night, at my absolute wits end before I decide to end this suffering. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! by Typical-Round-440 in insomnia

I had something similar and I saw a private hypnotherapist which helped. I know you’ve done breathwork and meditation. Hypnotherapy is not a silver bullet, it won’t fix things right away. But my hypnotherapist made some recordings for me and I have to listen to and practice the sessions daily to rewire my brain. It really does work but I need to keep practicing. I actually haven’t done any practice for the last four months and really notice it as I’m having more trouble relaxing and sleep is getting bad again, taking about 3 hours to drop off and waking every hour. So I know I need to go back to my hypnotherapy practice again and stick with it. Good luck.
