Does Hypnosis work for PTSD?

I have been diagnosed with Post Tramatic Stress Disorder because of unresolved childhood trauma.

Life has been very hard and recently started seeing a therapist, whom has diagnosed me with this:
I was adopted as a young child, emnotionally, physically, and psychologically abused growing up with a very dominant family.

I'm tired of the little things that set me off for either highs or lows. I just want to feel better, and quick.

What I want to know is will hypnosis work for someone who had PTSD, and how long will it take?

I was just diagnosed with PTSD because of a childhood trauma as well. I have heard mixed reviews about hypnosis and have not tried it myself. I have tried the EMDR thing where you follow the lights with your eyes and that is supposed to bring back a memory or put the person in the moment of trauma. I didnt really like it much because I felt out of control in a way. For me what is working is talk therapy. My therapist purposely gives me about an hour and a half because I have so much I have to go over. Therapy takes some time and when you are ready to take the next steps you will. This requires mucho patience something I def dont have. Dont give up though stick with the therapy and ask what your options are.
