  19. CONVERT “HAVE TO” INTO “WANT TO” I DO I LIKE I NEED I WANT TO HAVE TO

  20. RE-APPRAISAL: CONVERTING “THREAT” INTO “CHALLENGE” • Pratik, 24 years old, B. Sc. student with repeated episodes of haemoptysis for four and a half years. • Symptom episodes were related with academic exam periods perceived as threat. • Perfectionist by nature – wanted 1st rank always. • Clinical examinations & Investigations not indicating organic cause except presence of blood in sputum. • No response to empirical treatment trials. • Frustration, depression and at times irritability.

  21. case contd. • Had extreme anxiety about the up-coming exam. • Advised to drop-out from exam and re-think about career without parents’ interference. • In one of the later sessions he decided to change the branch and be a “good teacher” in future. • Exploratory hypnotic dream induction elicited age regression to emotionally traumatic event … … …

  22. case contd. Teacher’s comments (while he had respiratory infection) emotionally appraised as hurt and humiliation: “I know, Gujarati students are very weak in their body and mind. They are poor in studies and fall sick during exams so as to drop-out from the exams. They can’t progress academically.”

  23. case contd. Therapist’s suggestion for cognitive reappraisal: “You, being a clever student, will take this up as a healthy challenge rather than doubting your own efficiency.” Today, Pratik is a very popular teacher for C.A. He converted negative appraisal leading to “threat” into a positive reappraisal of “challenge”. Palan, B.M. & Lakhani, J.D. (1991). Converting the “Threat” into a “Challenge”: A Case of Stress-Related Hemoptysis Managed with Hypnosis. American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis, 33 (4), 241-247.
