PHOBIAS AND ANXIETY! Give me your Opinion on Biofeedback and CBT? |
I am going to see a therapist/psychologist next week for a specific phobia and anxiety she said I would be a good candidate for Biofeedback and CBT I've done alot research on CBT and some on Biofeedback but you know there is no better research then hearing from those who have been through it. Let me know your success or failures with it. But please no negativity everyone is different. Thank you. P.S I have also been doing Lucinda Bassett's Program Attacking Anxiety and Depression it's pretty good. Has anyone completed the program? And how has it worked for you? First, let me congratulate you on getting help for your phobia. For me that first step was the most difficult. I haven't gone through biofeedback, but I was in CBT for a period of time. It was effective for me in reducing the fear and managing it better. (I suffer from anxiety and agoraphobia was my most crippling symptom.) However, it was not the solution to my problem. For me, CBT helped me to manage the fears, but not to address their root causes. Thus, I think that it is extremely useful, especially if your phobia prevents you from doing daily (or common) activities; but (if you have a similar experience as me) it will not eliminate your phobia, but will help you manage it. I think it is best in conjunction with other forms of treatment. Hopefully, the combination of Lucinda Bassett's program, CBT, and Biofeedback (if you decided to do both of those last two) will be enough to address both the everyday problems your phobia causes as well as its root causes. Best of luck!! Source(s): Six months of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Kinesology .....specific One brain type can change your life in just one session. Doesn't hurt any to add Richard Bachs flower essences and tissue salt. A heck of a lot less money than therapist not telling you to not go to one though. I helped my daughter overcome stage fright by one session of Kinesology and my sister afraid to leave the house. I myself benefited for other reasons not related to fear or anxiety but taught belief systems. I think I spelled kinesology right but this spell checker doesn' t seem to think so. |
