Witherspoon went to a hypnotist before shooting 2014's Wild, an insider says

The strung-out Morning Show star, 49, was popping anti-anxiety pills to curb her panic attacks and attention deficit disorder — but the meds were doing little good, spies share.

That's why, moles confide, the petite Hollywood powerhouse relied on a hypnotist, who helped to finally calm her fears and slow down her racing thoughts — without medication.

“Reese went to a hypnotist before she was to start filming Wild. She was a nervous wreck, worrying about the shoot and how she was going to play this character — and the experience changed her life,” an insider says.
