I did ask him if hypnotherapy was available on the NHS, but sadly it's not.

And yes such a pill would be a problem solver

I guess i don't want to open up the can of worms that my life has been, maybe i should give CBT a try.

And i did have a dream last night that my family were walking along a coastal path, that was very narrow and we were all on the edge of a cliff, my fear in the dream was that the cliff was going to give way and we were going to plunge to our deaths, but my concern was my children, i don't know how to stop these thoughts when they're in my dreams
