I may have lost the sequence of
replies here... if you (Alexandra_K)
are saying that clinical mental illness
can be reversed (under all conditions)
without meds, i personally have a
counter-example.And that is the serendipitous occasion
of being given counterfeit/corrupted/old/or/
low drugs of my usual dose. The return of
the illness was indisputable--surprised even
me, maybe even my doctor, who is not
dogmatic in these matters. I became well
again upon resumption of the correct dose.I think that was a kind of scientific proof
that they call "CHALLENGE, DECHALLENGE,
RECHALLENGE". I think it even meets Popper's
falsifiability criterion for test of
the truth of a statement.Squiggles
