Self-Help
Good news! Where once
self-help was derided as a serious or effective method of gaining
relief from psychological problems, modern research shows that a
self-help approach can be very successful.
Certainly some people still
require the close support and supervision of a mental health
specialist, but likewise online programs are proving their value across
a range of issues: depression, anxiety, weight loss, smoking
cessation, relationship problems, chronic pain, etc.
And the aim of all help is to
support you toward self reliance in any case!
In choosing a self-help
program, it's really important that you choose one that has been proven
in clinical trials. New-age methods are not generally
successful and can result in wasted time, money and effort, and can
even do damage.
Likewise not every
"conventional" treatment is worthwhile. Talk therapy is all
but useless in most cases, and the "gold standard" of therapy,
cognitive behaviour therapy, has almost no scientific proof behind.
In fact some studies show it to be no better than
placebo.
It's worth noting that
testimonials should never be regarded as evidence. For
instance there are many testimonials regarding the use of hypnosis to
quit smoking. But when you examine actual scientific trials,
you see that less than 1% of people give up smoking by using
hypnosis.
It's very easy to get fooled by
a long list of testimonials, so remember that testimonials don't
provide proof, and that professional therapists NEVER use them because
that would be a breach of the client-therapist relationship.
So the bottom line is, we
encourage you to use a self-help approach to freeing yourself from your
anxiety, and at the same time we urge you to examine your chosen
treatment method carefully to make sure you select a proven method,
with good support facilities.
