> I sent that link to my shrink, it's good to have another viewpoint. I went to a Safe Harbor seminar in LA, there was a guy there who had 'recovered' from a serious bipolar disorder (numerous hospitalizations and a similar history to mine). He was on 16 pills/day and had been able to stop a 6 med cocktail and was symptom free for a year. That's basically why I wanted to try it (with my shrink's support). take care, judy
Please, don't get me wrong. I strongly advocate nutritional augmentation as a strategy for mental illness. In fact, if the concept of cure is even possible, I believe it lies in nutrition. That said, and EMPower success stories notwithstanding, there is enough of the snake-oil shysterism surrounding this particular outfit to give you the willies. They make health-care claims that are unsubstantiated, rely on medical evidence from unqualified personnel, sell a medication that is not regulated in any respect, and make a lot of money in the process.
