I'm new with some questions (diabetes, MS, schizophrenia, alcoholism and naturopathy)

[Guest guest]

Hi. This has always been an interest of mine and I am

looking forward to learning plenty. The first post I

read was about feeding raw rabbits to dogs. Uhh, we

have a pet bunny, so that one didn't interest me (PS

I hope your dogs get diarrhea; just joking). On to my

questions. My husband was recently diagnosed with

diabetes, so I'm interested in learning anything of

value there. He's on oral agents and was also using a

diabetic support product I got through a catalog, but

his blood sugar is still running around 200. My

sister was recently diagnosed with multiple

sclerosis, so I'm interested in information about

that. Auto-immune disorders seem to run in my family

(Dad died of ALS, son had Guillian Barre syndrome

after the chicken pox, niece has Crohns disease). I

have a friend whose Mom and brother both had/have

schizophrenia and it sure sounds lately from her

emails that she is heading that way too, so I'd like

info there. I have another friend who I think may be

alcholic, but I don't think he thinks he is, and maybe

he isn't but he's still drinking more than what is

healthy. I also was interested in how one becomes a

doctor of naturopathy. Thanks in advance for any

information you may have. Also, if there are things

already written in the archives, just let me know and

narrow down the date a bit, and I'll do some digging.

I'm not sure I know where to begin... ok first the alcoholic... until they admit they are and want help - there is not much you can do... ( this comes from personal experience - knowing those who were)

First in all cases a total body cleanse would be in order. Second, what does the diet consist of.... are you eating mostly grains, veges, fruits, etc.... or fast foods, lots of meat, starches, caffeine, etc... we need some more info....

If you check out the files "Articles" and then check out the message archives,... do a search by "diabetes" - if the search comes up blank hit the "next" button... messages will come up... keep going till it says there are no more.

Doc will be able to answer in more depth on these. He is out of town right now but should be back in the next day or two.

But please give us some more info.

~~~ Thank you. The diet is definitely some of it, as

is the weight. Three of his four grandparents were

diabetics and his father was, so it's very heavy in

the genes. Not a lot of caffeine. Lately he's cut

out the breads and carbs, but his diet before this was

lots of white refined carbs (he owns a deli, subs and

processed meats galore). But even cutting out the

carbs, his sugar is running high. ~~

Suggested reading, in my most Humble opinion, for anybody dealing

with schizophrenia, are the following books:

1)Louis Sass, Madness and Modernism: Insanity in Light of Modern Art

Literature and Thought ( he is a specialist in schizophrenia, and the

book is Highly Cognitive in it's approach ).

2)Stephen Wolinsky, Trances People Live: Healing Approaches in

Quantum Psychology

3)Stephen Larsen ( who was a student of the late Joseph Campbell and

who is a jungian psychologist ), The Mythic Imagination ( on Mask

therapy)

 

I have heard tell of schizophrenia being significantly helped by

omega-3 oils.

 

I have heard tell of schizophrenia being significantly helped by

niacin.

 

My personal opinion, is that schizophrenia is largely a societally

generated disease, and indeed Sass says it is a " disease of the hyper-

rational " and that we are a hyper-rational society.

 

Sass also says that brain studies have shown that a florid

schizophrenic will remain stuck in left brain functioning where

others would switch to right brain functioning for certain mental

tasks for which right brain functioning is more appropriate.

 

In my experience, it has been my habit to treat delusions as waking

dreams. I know it is difficult to listen and the tendency is to want

to " get that feeling " one gets when listening to somebody off the

deep end which is like nails scratching on a chalkboard of my soul --

to get it far away -- to lock it away in a " safe " place.

 

I,me personally, would never turn my loved one over to the care of

psychiatrists, but, then, he is one semester short of a Ph.D. in

psychology and was the Prize student in that department before he

went off the deep end with his theories that public news media were

trying to influence public opinion about the watergate hearings...

 

In my personal experience, there is Often mysterious grains of truth

embedded in paranoia's and delusions -- that are associated wtih hazy

quantumphysical realities. Knowing this can help alleviate that

feeling of needing to remove oneself immediately from the nails on

the chalkboard feeling.

And to this end I would say that also in my person opinion, any and

all of Fred Alan Wolf's books on quantum physics realities would be

useful... ( for the person trying to help the schizophrenic through

understanding, and possibly also for the schizophrenic " him/herself,

depending on what he/she is open to.
