With respect to cost vs. benefits how is this approach different compared to the traditional approach using prescription medications?
a. A traditional psychiatric approach temporarily suppresses symptoms of mental illness with the use of prescription medications that cause physiological dependence/tolerance, while increasing the patient’s level of toxicity, in exchange for symptom relief. Traditional psychiatrists are frequently ill informed about medication withdrawal, and ignorant about how to facilitate the body’s healing through nutritional supplements, proper diet, detoxification, or energy medicine. Suppression of symptoms give the patient a false sense of being “healed.” However, without the medication(s), symptoms of the underlying mental illness plus withdrawal side effects soon ensue, leading to an endless cycle of doctors’ visits and prescription medications. Traditional doctors insist that most mental illnesses are chronic illnesses, because patients are dependent on medications and doctors indefinitely. Cost of treatment is drawn out indefinitely and “healing” depends on the daily use of medication(s)–th
