Guest guest Posted March 3, 2003 Report Share Posted March 3, 2003 The big break through for us came when after having touched the heart of many a delusion, one day, instead of coming to me and trying to convince me his " delusion " was correct and happening as per his own interpretation, he came to me and said, " I'm starting to feel Paranoid " about something that was happening at work. Shortly after that, he who heard voices for most of his life: suddenly the voices simply Ceased. No more voices. No more delusions. No more schizophrenia. I KNOW that Most people will want to believe that situations where schizophrenics were healed in this way and ways like this, were accidental freaks of nature, but I lived my life and " I was there " -- I experienced this thing happen as it was happening. . I believe Reiki may also be of help. Also, Thomas Moore, in, his book Care of the Soul says that it is not necessary in therapy to batter a person or analyze a problem ( hyper-rational) " away " -- but rather, to simply Touch, briefly on the trouble spot, and move on, can be of more help than anything. When we FEEL emotions, they begin to move and change. When we Tell somebody they are delusional it stops them from FEELING what they feel and freezes them in a state of displacement from their own emotions. When we give somebody Permission to Feel their own Feelings, you might be amazed at what will clear itself up rather naturally. Given a little ( or a lot depending on the tenacity of that particular delusion and the difficulty in processing the feelings behind it -- the complexity of it ) bit of time... Love heals ! Unfortunately, often the hyper-rational modern mindset which likes to have everything under control, is not willing to create the time and the space for Chaotic emotional states to evolve on their own to a state of equilibreum and clarity. Ok. Now I'm getting Down of my soap box. Gotta go rest my bum leg from sitting at my computer like this. Put my foot up. Compensate for Gravity.

Guest guest Posted March 3, 2003 Report Share Posted March 3, 2003 Some people do better with the medications than others it seems. But I have heard repeated stories of horrendous lack of insigh among hospital staff in dealing with the emotional issues. It sounds like you are his best therapist, at least where his emotions are concerned right now... Are they willing to work with/alongside -- some alternative therapist? Maybe some day that day too will come ! Luv & Hugs, Cathie In a message dated 3/3/03 1:54:03 PM Mountain Standard Time, ng2113 writes: Cathie, I have a brother who has schizophrenia. I visited him today in the hospital. He told me that he was involved in nuclear war that was going on presently but doctors wouldn't believe him.He was very frustrated that doc would not believe him.I told him "okay.. but we are in safe place. No one can reach us.Don't worry!". He calmed down.He was relaxed when I left him. I also think thats meds given to schizophrenics make them worse in time. It is too late for may brother anyway.He is in quite bad shape. Just wanted to share. Nil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
