Todays leading knowledge on diseases wont be leading to improved treatments for them for roughly 15 years. A possobly revolutionary medication entering clinical trials today will be taking quite some time before you get to try it. Progress in Healthcare stems from one recognizing an opportunity to increase their wealth. Thoigh sometimes governments do fund development of treatments that a Drug Company wouldnt see much opportunity in. And there is an endless amount of research on sites like Pubmed that you can read through. Just a click away.

> Psychiatric Meds alter various functions throughout the body. This should be expected, as they alter the brain in fundamental ways. The receptors they directly or indirectly target control far more than the just our emotions. Stop tge debating, and start educating ourselves on the intricate ways these drugs are known to affect our bodies. One effect Geodon has is it blocks D2 Receptors. Learn about the consequences this can have on the body short term and longterm. Learn about the specific processes that are altered by this effect of Geodon. And when these processes are altered, what functions downstream are altered? Sure, its pretty bland info to read up on, but its there.

> There are different fields of medical treatment that target specific areas of the body. But the whole entire body works in harmony. Lately it has been shown that even the health of our gut can have a significant impact on our brain function. If the cause of ones mental illness is that their gut bacteria biome is in terrible shape, then a psychiatrist isnt going to be much help and could only harm the patient. But thats not how todays medical treatment works. If you seek help for mental health issues, youre told its best to see a mental health "professional" where youre offered Talk Therapy, Neurotransmitter altering Drugs, or a brain stimulation treatment like ECT. But are these professionals doing anything to help with your guts health? Nope.Hello321,
What you wrote is what is at issue here and you see it.
There are a those that agree with you and accept the generally accepted number of those killed by psychiatric drugs each year as 40,000.
This number will change when the Danish researcher's conclusions are accepted also by psychiatry. I am in the camp of 1,000,000 killed each year but I accept the 40,000 number for now as those killed by these drugs.
Here is a well-known doctor that accepts the 40,000 killed and speaks in concert with you.
I agree that good heath can help, but it has been revealed to me what depression is and it's release of the captive to it. It comes from a Jewish perspective as revealed to me that Mr. Hsiung prohibits me to post here.
But be it as it may be, if people listened to you, those that were killed by the drugs could still be alive. And worse, those here promoting mind-altering drugs that kill, might not have made the promotion and those killed by their promotion of the drugs could still be alive.

Ah, "Dr" Mercola. For those fortunate enough to have never heard of him, there is a nice overview in wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Mercola
It's un-ethical for a doctor to use their credentials to sell products directly to consumers in the first place, and even more so when their advice about use of the products contradicts the standard of care.
But, let's ignore that for the moment and look at his advice re antidepressants. It's easy to conclude that his criticisms are a collection of un-substantiated claims, exaggerations, half-truths, outright falsehoods, and perhaps even some truths. Yet, even if all the criticisms were true, it's a huge logic fail to jump from a long list of criticisms of antidepressants to his conclusion that a low sugar diet and "energy medicine" are effective treatments for depression. His argument boils down to this:
There are many problems with Method A
Therefore, Method B is effective (and I will sell it to you)Total nonsense. Yet I see this type of argument over and over in alternative medicine, even in technology. It must be some basic failure mode of human reasoning to buy this. Perhaps hearing someone point out all the drawbacks to the status quo treatment primes you emotionally to accept whatever is the next thing mentioned by your savior, the brave critic.
Highlights:
"these drugs don't address the cause, which has its beginnings in your emotions, and possibly in nutritional deficiencies."
really? how did you come to that conclusion?
"EFT, as opposed to drugs and supplements, hits at the root of the problemeven if you don't know exactly what that is. This is the beauty of energy medicine in general."
*head* *desk*
I have high confidence that he has similar articles on his site on many, many health conditions that follow this basic form where he criticizes standard treatments, says the conditions are really nutritional and emotional problems, and links you to his products.
Ironically, I have actually used both of the recommended "treatments" that he favors-- the Sugar Blues diet, and the Emotional Freedom Technique. Neither had any noticeable effect on my depression.

http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2015/12/31/antidepressants-depression.aspx
I looked over this article and didnt notice any product advertisements.
None on here, either. Maybe im just missing them.
A very low sugar/carbohydrate diet has been the best thing ive tried for my condition lately. I dont know if you restricted carbs also, but its part of the deal if youre going to restrict sugar. Fiber is coumted as a carb for what ever reason, but your body doesnt absorb it, so it doesnt count. But every other carbohydrate is turned into sugar inside the body. Whether its a carb from whole grain bread, or a carb from white bread.
Ive been doing the Ketogenic Diet (very low carb, high fat) and it has definitely helped with my mood. But it does take time and dedocation to figure out what you can and cant eat, and sticking to it. The whole odea is to get ypur body and brain to start running on fats instead of carbohydrates.

That's a great request. Mr. Pilder is very capable of expository writing that is coherent and readable. He demonstrates this on the Social board. The question becomes, why does he not do this on the Medication board? I will be very surprised if your request is acceded to.

>Scott, ive posted on this board a couple of years now and every few months you act thoroughly surprised about any negative view i have of psychiatry or its treatments.
But i will sum it up for you. I suppose my view of treatments for any condition can be described as libertarian, as long as informed consent is given. Id even love to see that we have access to many treatments that have failed clinical trials, but had helped even 5 percent of the participants. As long as we aere made aware of other treatments as well, natural or chemical.
Just because ive realized the benefits of natural healing, does not mean im agai st someone having a psychiatric treatment for an optio, with informed consent. As ive posted on many times, ive experienced severe longterm effects from psychiatric medications that i really had no idea about when i started on them. Ive gone into details on this many times.
What specific things written about on Mercola do you object to? Any of it proven 100 percent false? Such as things that arent up for debate. You might see some things you find a bit sketchy, but you also can say the promotion that a chemical imbalance is the cause of psychiatric disorders. As well as many other things about psychiatric treatment.

What makes you think that I am surprised? Well, I guess I am, but growing less so. We might have something in common, though. I think each of us wants to help people and prevent harm.
> But i will sum it up for you. I suppose my view of treatments for any condition can be described as libertarian
What is this? Politics? Regarding treatments for illness, I am all for novel treatments, whether it be synthesized in a lab or extracted from a botanical. It might be reasonable, though, that science should be applied to drugs and devices to demonstrate efficacy and establish a safety profile.
> Just because ive realized the benefits of natural healing,
Okay. What is it that needed healing? What natural healing has brought you to remission? Is it something you learned from Mercola?
> What specific things written about on Mercola do you object to?
Every third word.
Seriously, I think Tabitha did a great job of giving some examples. They are good enough for me, anyway.
> Any of it proven 100 percent false?
It is first the responsibility of someone to prove something as being true.
> Such as things that arent up for debate.
Everything is always up for examination and reexamination
> You might see some things you find a bit sketchy
Very.
> but you also can say the promotion that a chemical imbalance is the cause of psychiatric disorders.
I don't even know what a chemical imbalance is. This is a primitive conceptualization that has served well to educate the public in the 1980s and 1990s. Few, if any, neuroscientists adhere to such a simple explanation.
Chemical imbalance -> not a sufficient model
Biological dysfunction -> supported by scientific evidenceI am sorry if you have been hurt by doctors and their drugs. I am sure you have already described your experiences in detail. You must be tired of repeating yourself. I hope you have gained the health that you formerly lacked.

> I never notice any advertisements trying to get folks to buy products from Mercola.I see three links to his shop on every article. The "Shop" tab and the "Shop for Health Products" link at the top, and a picture ad saying "Celebrating our 19th Anniversary, take 10% off sitewide plus receive a FREE organic cotton bag with purchase" at the side. I also get two invitations to add myself to his mailing list-- one at the top of each page, and one that appears frequently as a pop-up. When I click over to his shop, it's a full-fledged store with hundreds of items for sale. It's very clearly a commercial site.
I also notice a link labeled "why am I seeing these ads?" which links to an article and video in which he tries to justify his selling of products. (No doubt he is aware of the ethical problems with physicians selling health products, which is why he feels a need to justify it.)
There were also a couple of Amazon affiliate links in the first article I read. I don't have a problem with sites (such as this one) using affiliate links for income, particularly when they have a disclaimer about it, but here we have someone recommending popular books as health interventions in place of standard medical care, using the weight of his credential as a doctor. That is a whole different thing and IMO highly unethical for a physician.
Besides the Amazon links, the article included a link to another site promoting EFT. It's a commercial site offering some free content mixed in with sales of books, DVDs, consultations with practitioners, and practitioner training. Most likely he's financially affiliated with any other commercial sites he links.

Honestly I think I could come up with a better anti-anti-depressant argument than the chemical imbalance spiel. All I would have to do is describe the side effects in vivid detail and leave out the part where the soul-sucking misery finally stops.

My thoughts exactly. We need to be looking at alk of the options. There is science behind much of what is written about this on his site.

It sounds good, if you think that effective treatments are sort of evenly distributed between conventional medicine and alternative medicine. Or even if you think there might be a few good treatments in alternative medicine that haven't yet been embraced by conventional medicine. However, controlled testing on alternative methods consistently shows their effectiveness is not better than placebo. The NCCIH has spent $1.3 billion on alternative medicine research since 2000, and has not produced a single successful intervention that is better than placebo or conventional care. Examples of their research results:
- Tai Chi works as well as physical therapy
- CBT and mindfulness are better for back pain than no intervention (as is any placebo)
- acupuncture provides benefits, whether or not you stick needles into acupuncture points, stick needles into arbitrary points, or just pretend to be sticking needles into the skin. (The reasonable conclusion is that all three methods "work" through placebo effect.)
- many reports describing the prevalence of use of alternative medicine, without speaking to its effectiveness at all.Wouldn't you expect some more impressive results after $1.3 billion?
Worse, when there are numerous studies showing that treatments don't work (e.g. homeopathy, acupuncture), alternative medicine practitioners don't abandon the techniques. Contrast to medicine, which, despite all its flaws, does pick up new treatments and drop ineffective ones in response to new research.
I think if people understood the following, alternative medicine would lose most of its appeal:
- it's actually very difficult to come up with effective treatments. most ideas that seem initially plausible never translate into successful treatments
- things often seem to work due to common cognitive biases. controlled testing is necessary, and results often will contradict human instincts

I don't know about some of the treatments you pointed out. But I know exercise and a ketogenic diet has helped my mood more than any psychiatric treatment has. There are different causes behind each person's illness, and different treatments can be helpful. If you run out of options with psychiatric treatments, or just want to avoid them, then there may be a helpful alternative treatment.

I dunno. My big thing is Orthomolecular. The 1970s-era studies that supposedly de-bunked OM were poorly designed and seem designed to fail, honestly.
Part of the appeal of alt health for me is personal autonomy. I order my vitamins online, take doses I can tolerate, cobble together a lil protocol...good times. I do mine w/ meds and counseling and an increasingly nutritious diet. Mercola, oddly enough, doesn't do a whole lot w/ Orthomolecular, but I do sometimes enjoy reading articles on his website.
I think Hello has a point. I ran out of options beyond "more antipsychotic!" "a different antipsychotic?," so OM seemed like just the ticket. 6ish years in, I've made a miraculous recovery. Was it/is it OM? Possibly, at least in part. There hasn't been a whole lot of research on OM, especially the full cocktails, so...no one can say for certain.

I don't think one can make a blanket statement about all alternative treatments or all mainstream psychiatric treatments.
The substances you take might very well be necessary to produce your improved condition. If I'm not mistaken, you have used critical thinking to experiment clinically with vitamins and supplements. I am very supportive of your methods and applaud you on your success. What does Mercola recommend for people with your condition compared to what you discovered for yourself?

OK...Mercola is big on something called EFT, which I don't know much about and also...EFT doesn't much interest me. I don't wanna knock it off hand, but it strikes me as on the more pseudo-scientific end of things.
With Orthomolecular...what bothers me is that there have been studies, which obviously cost $$$, that simply did not follow Hoffer's protocol. At all. Which raises the question...why bother?
The deal with OM is you're flooding your body with massive doses of C, B-complex, B-3 of some sort...usually b-6, high dose vitamin E of some sort...its not necessarily that one component is the It Vitamin, its that the massive doses for a long time (often indefinitely) mixed with carefully selected, skillfully dosed psych medication(s), sometimes also using shock treatments...will produce very good outcomes for a lot of people on the more severe end of the mental illness spectrum.
The OM psychiatry literature is really interesting...they're big on careful dosing with neuroleptics because of what they term the "tranquilizer psychosis," which I imagine was more of an issue with heavy-handed use of the older neuroleptics. In addition...they used niacin in most male patients from the early days because of its protective cardio effects. I just think its interesting...now, there's research on individual components of the old school Hoffer cocktails, but nobody (as far as I know...) has put the whole combo together with an appropriately dosed atypical and studied it long term. Shame, shame, shame.

It just seems like reaching. After enough negative trials that all the major medical associations reject the therapy, does it make sense to keep thinking they just didn't quite test it right? How did Hoffer even choose his specific protocol in the first place, given that he wasn't using controlled testing? Are we supposed to think he just had really, really, really good intuition?
I just compare it to something like the development of chemotherapy, which happened in the same time-frame. It wasn't someone coming up with elaborate, individualized drug combos. It was trial and error on individual drugs, then adding more agents in combination with existing successes. We ended up with some treatments that have stood the test of time and passed large controlled trials.
Thus I just think if high dose vitamin therapy was really effective, we would have very different data by now.

Doesnt matter so much ifna treatment failed in cal trial after clinical trial, if that treatment still helps you. When you dont know the cause of a condition, you wont know the fix, either. But sometimes youre lucky enough to stumble upon it. Medication wise.
The best treatment for my depression had been Periactin until it stopped working. But a mental health professional would likely never even consider prescribing periactin if i didnt specifically ask for it. Its not even a typical off label treatment for any psychiatric symptoms. But it is the best medication ive ever tried. I wouldnt doubt that if periactin were put through clinical trials for depression, that it could fail. It might help only 10 percent of those who try it. So there is a problem with saying a treatment isnt worth bringing to market for an illness even if it had only helped less than half who tried it. What really needs to be looked at is the biological effects of a med, and not what condition it is designated for. Addyi is a 5ht1a agonist that i wouldnt doubt could be very help for certain psychiatric conditions, but it only approved for Female Sexual Dysfunction. This medication probably doesnt even cross the mind of many psychiatrists.

Has Periactin stopped working entirely? How long did it work for, and at what dosage? Was it sedating? I am considering using Periactin it myself. Thank you.
Periactin (cyproheptadine) is a 5-HT2a/b/c receptor antagonist. I believe that Remeron and nefazodone are 5-HTa/c antagonists. I'm thinking that if Remeron and nefazodone are without effect, perhaps it is important that you get some 5-HT2b action going on. Trintellix (vortioxetine) is a partial agonist, so it might act to stabilize 5-HT2b activity. If it is necessary to get all three 5-HT2a/b/c, you might have to take Remeron to complement Trintellix. Unfortunately, a pure 5-HTa/b/c antagonist named ritanserin is not available, even though it is perfectly safe. Of course, there may be other of properties of Periactin that made you feel better.
I am not suggesting that you give up all of your other therapeutic experiments (pharmaceutical or nutriceutical). However, I would keep Trintellix (possibly with Remeron or nefazodone) in mind if you have not yet tried it.
