Psychological Disorders-Bipolar Disorder

[Guest guest]

Hi Raj,

 

I have heard anecdotal evidence of a cure for Bipolar Disorder using

Ayurvedic herbs and treatments combined with body-centered

psychotherapy, osteopathic adjustments and energy healing work,

though this has not been my experience.

 

In my experience with my psychiatric patients as well as a close

family member, there is no cure for Bipolar Disorder, only management

of symptoms. I have seen a combination of long-term psychotherapy,

psychopharmalogical treatment with any combination of allopathic

medications like Lithium, Tegretol, Depakote, or Lamictal, and a

balanced lifestyle with regular osteopathic adjustments to be

helpful. However, one key problem with the disease is that those

affected are often not willing to be compliant with these treatments,

especially because in the manic or hypomanic states when their

judgment is impaired, they often feel very good, as if they are

invincible and completely " healed " and no longer in need of

treatments or a balanced lifestyle.

 

Best,

Juliana
