I suffer from severe bouts of anxiety, depression, and panic attacks, and while I'm looking into finding a good psychologist, I was also wondering if acupuncture could help as well? Btw, I love your blog and tumblr. <3 You're so lovely. ^ _ ^
Hi lovely! I'm so sorry it's taken me so long to reply to this, I hope you'll still see my answer <3
To answer your question, yes, most definitely, acupuncture can help with these things. A lot of my own patients have tended to need more treatment for emotional conditions than physical so I've had a lot of practice and seen really great results. The reason acupuncture works so well with things like depression and anxiety is that it can target the energetic cause of the problem, which we would call the syndrome pattern, as well as help to make you feel calm and more in control quickly, within the treatment itself.
It works really well alongside therapy as well because you're sort of tackling it from all sides. We acupuncturist folk tend to be friendly to talk to as well so they'll likely be able to chat to you about your feelings which just by itself can really help.
I wish you so much good luck with it all my sweetling *big hugs* xxx
