Hi again,
I can't help but think that anyone who responds to placebos must either be very suggestable or not that depressed to start with.
But having said that I was watching this programme on telivision when they were looking at Faith Healing and placebo effects. They did a trial on people with parkinsons disease and they found people with parkinsons disease had their tremors reduced after receiving sham treatment. Apparently the power of expectation causes a release of dopamine or something.
Anyway, I've tried many medications, hypnotherapy, rTMS and never got a placebo off any of them. I wish I did.
Kind Regards....Denise
