Yjank you all for your kind and helpful comments. I've just started a cognitive behavioural thingy with an NHS therapist; I feel very lucky to get this. She suggested I get in touch with UKPT. I would very much like to attend a workshop but there is an irony that I'm sure others have encountered, that is I'm sure it's fine when you get there, but how do you cope while travelling! I need a venue within an hour or so of home. One last observation - about ten years ago I had a course of hypnotherapy. I'm a difficult subject (he told me) but eventually he was just about able to hypnotise me and this was to some extent successful. I can use motorways now, for the most part without too much difficulty (not urinals) whereas I couldn't before. This chap was recommended by my GP so I could trust him. Has anyone out there tried hypnosis, and with any success?
