Exploring the Causes

Often mood swings are a symptom of other unresolved problems. Such as resulting from emotional turmoil or distress. Moreover, an inability to process a past traumatic event. Whatever the cause, hypnotherapy can help you in dealing with your mood swings.

Coping Strategies

Anger Management

Anger can be a destructive emotion. Though it’s a natural response, when it becomes overwhelming it’s a struggle to control it. Learning to postpone, distract or accept our anger and deal with it healthily is key to anger management. In addition, exploring the underlying causes of your anger or finding more positive outlets for frustration.

Learning Not To Feed The Monster

Acknowledging and accepting negative emotions in ourselves is healthy. However, some people find this easier than others. For example, if you’re feeling down do you tell yourself you’re worthless, wallow in it and feed it with negative thoughts. Or do you take a moment to feel it but then move on and start to build yourself back up? This is a powerful technique of emotionally rounded people and can be taught in therapy.

Toleration

Sometimes trying to fight or deny our emotions or moods only makes them more powerful. A mindful approach to mood swings helps us to face them and feel them. Furthermore by tolerating the feeling and acknowledging it, but refusing to feed it. Accept what we can and can’t change about the current situation. We tell ourselves that all things pass, and we use the techniques we have learnt to help us move on.
