  1. Well let's look at the two things hypnosis is most commonly used for:

    1.) What you refer to, attempting to reprogram the brain through the subconscious. I have not seen any evidence that this works, and additionally we know that people who are hypnotized for whatever purpose will often respond to hypnotic suggestion at first but it will gradually wear off and might be gone in a few hours or a few weeks depending on the person and the suggestion. This makes it a pretty inefficient tool for reforming a person in the long-term.

    2.) Delving into the past. Unfortunately it has been proven that people who give away information when hypnotized do not do so with greater accuracy than when conscious. They are, however, more likely to fib with enthusiasm. So, this may work when someone has an extreme aversion to giving up information of their past which may be helpful in therapy or elsewhere, but not if they have forgotten it. Additionally, people do not remember what happens while in hypnosis, which means that it will not work in traditional psychotherapy which requires a conscious appraisal.

    So overall, it's not a very good idea but it may be just what's needed in specific situations.

  2. If I had not been already been meditating, I would certainly have had to start. I've treated my own depression for many years with exercise and meditation, and I've found that to be a tremendous help.
