Cocaine Addiction
Cocaine! Now, let’s get straight to the point. Do you have a cocaine addiction? Are you looking for a way to get rid of this addiction? Have you tried to stop and failed? Is cocaine ruining your life? Is it ruining your relationship or family?
If your answer to the above questions is yes, then you are in the right place. If your answer is no, then you might know someone who will benefit. Overcoming addiction with hypnosis is not common. Shall we decipher it?
What is addiction?
Addiction is whereby a person (an addict) uses a substance. For example a drug. It can also be someone who engages in certain behaviours repeatedly. This happens because of perceived rewards from engaging in that act despite resulting detrimental effects. This may involve the intake of drugs or other substances. These substances can be cigarettes(nicotine), cocaine, heroin, opium, cannabis, alcohol, glue etc. Or it may involve engagement in behaviours such as gambling, use of social media etc.
Here is how it works. It triggers the release of a neurotransmitter which subsequently makes the body feel good. It is interesting to note that this neurotransmitter (dopamine) is involved in the feelings of reward and reinforcement that occur in the body. Addictions can sometimes lead to mental problems. These problems can be depression or anxiety.
So, what is hypnosis?
Hypnosis is an altered state whereby a person is in a trance. In this state, they are prone to extreme suggestibility and intensified imagination. When someone is under hypnosis, he or she can be very relaxed. Some might think that the individual under hypnosis is asleep. However, this is not the case. He or she is conscious and alert the entire time. Hypnosis is a focused state of attention. This makes it easier for them to change negative habits and behaviours.
How do you get rid of an addiction using hypnosis?
Hypnosis is a very effective method of breaking your cocaine addiction. That is true especially when you combine it with other methods. The hypnotherapist guides you into hypnosis, a very calm state of mind. In this state of mind, the addict is highly susceptible to instructions given by the hypnotist. What happens is that while under hypnosis, the unconscious part of our mind which is responsible for our long term behaviours and habits, is more accessible than it would be normally. Thus the use of suggestions can influence this unconscious part.
In the case of cocaine, the suggestions are designed to change your mind-set about drugs. It will change your attitude towards them by associating cocaine with something unpleasant. The objective of the suggestions is to influence your conscious mind that you have no desire to take drugs. Moreover, you can now let go and move on.
Through hypnosis, you can suggest new habits to the conscious mind in place of addiction. This would help to break the addiction. Hypnosis will be used to convince the unconscious mind to see things in a different light. Then, healthy new habits such as exercising etc will be suggested. They will be a replacement for any unhealthy addiction.
Beyond any shadow of a doubt, these suggestions made to the unconscious mind will then influence the conscious mind. They will also influence subsequent behaviour and attitude.
