All Stress Related Mental Illness - PTSD in particular
Posted: Tue 16 Dec, 2008 10:09 pm
Experienced 22 years of COGNITIVE TREATMENT plus usual range of drugs. In 1976 commenced study of subject based on non effective use of Cognitive Treatment. Finally believe I now understand nature of problem at age of 81. Didn't think I should be in too much of a hurry! OK.
Most therapists (specialists) are inclined to deal with problem as of the MIND. So there is not a great success rate. The real point is that it is a problem of FEELINGS. It is generally believed that one is in control of one's FEELINGS. However, an EXCESS of STRESS tends to disrupt, disturb or SENSITISE ONE'S feelings. The CURE is to DESENSITISE the
FEELINGS. CURE is to RESTORE PATIENTS to NORMALITY. Not at all so obvious but that is the answer. I spent a long time trying to devise a practical program and eventually did so; but it was so cumbersome. I then uncovered the brief answer. It is that approach I wish to make public.
Seem to be running out of space. Will explain on a further occasion. PTSD is CURABLE - keep that in mind!
