Well may be it is a solution for many problems like losing weight too.

I do not belive that there is any reality to supposed 'hypnosis' to cure/handle any behavior issue.  I have never spent money on it  nor would I ever, but have had several friends who did.  All it did was relieve them of money - not any issue they were seeking help with.

I know it just makes me mad that these "treatments" are almost as bad as the cancer but we need to stay positive and take these expensive drugs, and get expensive "counseling" and be happy and brave and not acknowledge our discomfort.

My husband won't even get a mole removed on his neck because he was worried about the pain. Give me a break, I am so sick of SE's I could scream. Now I feel better.

Just my experiences

My treatments are why I am still alive today and yes I do believe that remaining positive plays a large part in our survival.  Treatment keeps us alive, cancer kills.  I learned very young that being 'positive' makes the worst of times better.  Being negative only makes 'things' more negative.

We are each so unique with so many past experiences that make us who we are.  I am strong, 'brave', and happy.  Hubby is there for me in any way/time I need him to be.  BUT he does not try to take over.  Yes, I am happy too.   I am able to do anything I want to do - so what more can I ask?
