I heard these awful words last week in my hypnotherapy practice - and it is not the first time. Sadly, I hear this a lot.
A beautiful teenage girl sat adjacent to me - her shoulders slumped with her heavy head in her hands. Her self harming scars just visible as she wiped her tears with her sleeves.
She quietly whispered to me that she didn't deserve to be here anymore. Over and over again she repeated "I hate myself..."
I asked her why she had came to see me. She said that she didn't know.
So, I said to her softly. I know why you came... Would you like ME to tell YOU?
She rolled her eyes (like a teenager does so well) and shrugged her shoulders.
I waited, quietly.
She didn't like the silence. Finally, she shouted GO ON THEN...
This is what I said...
