I am interested in knowing (1) How successful
is hypnotherapy when used to treat personality
disorders, (2) Which psychiatric disorders are most
helped by its implementation, (3) Which psychiatric
disorders either do not benefit or are exacerbated by
hypnotherapy, and (4) Who are its current best known
and reliable proponents? What is the minimum training that a
psychologist/psychiatrist should have before he/she
introduces hypnotherapy into his/her practice?

I am requesting information on "the need to be right." I am in a relationship where my partner has the need to be right all the time. Even when he is wrong... he tries to argue it right. What is this behavior? It's very frustrating.

I am a 43-year-old woman. I have an eating binge problem. My father was an alcoholic, and I feel like I'm a "food-aholic". Just as an alcoholic can't stop drinking until the alcohol is gone or the alcoholic passes out, I can't stop eating until the food is gone or I'm sick. What can I do? It's harder than alcohol because one has to eat to live.
