Lol. Sorry Scott. :-) I get bored listening to my own preaching post after post.
They all basically say the same thing. If a longterm psych patient aggressively takes on generalized inflammation, generalized unknown infection, generalized toxin respect, and generalized diet improvements for chronic illnesses, they are going to feel a lot better with a degree of certainty much higher than an antidepressant clinical trial.
Scott, my doctors are so friggin smart and experienced, I respect them a great deal. I am not easy to impress. They are very impressive. So when they tell me 90% of psychiatric symptoms come from unsuspected lyme disease, how am I supposed to ignore that? Especially when I have seen that bear out true in my own case, exactly as they assured me.
If their clinical opinions are true, that means 8 or 9 out of every 10 people here at pbabble has lyme disease or another infection looking similar to lyme disease. And since everyone here has had years piled upon years of meds and spotty improvements, it definitely raises suspicions that cannot be ignored by anyone with thought and wisdom.
My message could be misinterpreted as "everyone has lyme disease so screw the psychiatrists". That is false. My message is, nearly all psychciatric patients and symptoms stand a very high probability of improving significantly when the same strategies of lyme treatment are utilized, totally regardless of whether they actually have lyme or not, and in fact will probably never know. Testing just isn't good enough so we have to go on clinical observation in the real world. Stuff I share on pbabble is that.
While some scientists specialties seem to be a little ahead of the curve, such as groundbreaking genetic researchers, and some of the pharmaceutical companies for rare diseases, most of the science world I believe is about 5 years lagging behind what we already see in the clinical real world. In other words, clinical medicine is making greater strides than scientific medicine, and has a considerable head start. Science in general is lagging behind, which is sad because so many people put their faith and hope into pure science.
The Chinese know which plants do what, and have done so reliably for 2000 years. They don't care how they work or that they cannot scientifically explain how they work. All that is beside the point. Only the Western World makes explanation a priority, rather than the actual healing. Eastern medicine doesn't care much how something works, only that it does so reliably.
I think treating difficult psychiatric cases has to take on that same sort of outlook....do stuff that makes sense whether there is any science to back it up or not. Wait for the science and you'll probably be dead by then. Lots of suffering that could have been avoided.
Long story short....keep the psychiatric box because we need it, but for Pete's sake, open it up and take a look around outside the box! Most of the healing is outside that box, not inside it!
That's all I'm saying.
If anyone wants specific details on any particular issue or question, please let me know. Thanks.
