Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 What has always worked for me, is color. This is going to sound way out there, but this is what brings me up. I roll a cart in Walmart late at night with hand towels of various colors hanging on the sides. As each color isn't helping anymore, i return it to the department. I continue til I'm down to one color. Then I buy a few hand sets in that color, and that keeps me up. Has your thyroid been checked? Another thing that helps is to soak your feet for 20 minutes at bedtime, as hot as you can tolerate. Add 1/2 cup epsom salt.

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Hi Valerie, http://www.truehope.com has supplements that help people with bipolar and other mental health issues. A father came up with this after his wife committed suicide, and it turned out two of his children had bipolar also. Cocktails of up to about 5 drugs were not helping them and had horrible side effects. The father got with a friend and they adapted a formula of nutrients used for ornery pigs. This worked so much better than all the drugs! Out bodies work on NUTRIENTS! Most mental illness is a simple nutrient deficiency, many times based on individual needs for more of certain nutrients. The best thing to do is see on " orthomolecular " doctor. Abram Hoffer was curing schizophrenics in the 1950s with Vitamin C and Niacin. Here is a directory: http://alternativementalhealth.com/directory/search.asp Here's a description of 5 types of depression - each needing different supplements. http://alternativementalhealth.com/articles/walsh.htm#D " After getting extensive biochemical data on more than 3,000 persons diagnosed with clinical depression, we found that 95% of them fit neatly into one of 5 separate biochemical classifications. Depression is not a single condition, but an umbrella term covering several completely different conditions. Anyway, we believe we have identified the 5 primary phenotypes..... each with their own classic symptoms and each with completely different treatment needs. " Sometimes a person also needs some drugs, but with nutrients, the dose can usually be reduced to where there is much less harm from side effects. There are lab tests that can be done. http://alternativementalhealth.com http://hriptc.org " Pfeiffer Treatment Center (PTC) is a not-for-profit, medical outpatient facility specializing in the treatment of symptoms from biochemical imbalances. PTC's dedicated medical team treats children, teens, and adults with symptoms of behavioral and learning disorders (including ADD/ADHD), autism spectrum disorders, depression (including postpartum depression), bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety, post traumatic stress syndrome and Alzheimer's disease. PTC takes a unique, integrative approach to identify and treat the root metabolic causes of these symptoms with a multi-disciplinary clinical team involving physicians, nurses, dietitians, pharmacists and other clinical specialists.

Went to the area on Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, which I am very familiar with. Was sorry to see there was nothing there. Hi Lynn, If I do a search for orthomolecular and " fetal alcohol syndrome " I come up with a number of pages, but my computer has too many windows open right now to explore more than one of them: http://www.orthomolecularvitamincentre.com/learningdisorders.php Children With Learning and/orBehavioral Disorders. Since 1955 I have treated over 2000 children under the age of 14 with orthomolecular therapy. In my books “Hoffer’s ABC of Natural Nutrition for Children”, Quarry Press, Kingston, ON, 1999, and “Healing Children's Attention and Behavior Disorders, CCNM Press, Toronto, 2005, the results of treatment are reported. I have found the DSM IV published by the American Psychiatric Association of little value. Surely we do not have 45 different psychiatric diseases with their individual numbers for this general class of children. They fall into two main classes: the food allergies and toxins, and those without, but both groups need supplementation with the correct B vitamins. I am not alone in my view about the value of modern psychiatric diagnosis. Professor I Savodnik1, psychiatrist and philosopher who teaches at UCLA wrote, “As it turns out, the American Psychiatric Association has been turning out mental illnesses for the last fifty years. The original manual in1952 contained 107 diagnoses, the second in 1968 180, in 1981 it had increased to 226, and in 1994 it leaped forward to 263 conditions: A 340 percent increase in diagnostic labels in fifty years. Nowhere in the rest of medicine has such a proliferation of categories occurred.” Children with fetal alcohol syndrome also respond to the same treatment. This condition is considered untreatable. Dr. D. Herrera2, Weil Medical College, Cornell, found that in mice niacinamide reversed the pathological effects of this syndrome. RL, female, born May 25,1994, first seen September, 2004. Referred with diagnosis of fetal alcohol syndrome [end quote, but he cured her problems with supplements.] Also went to Truehope. Interesting. But, I have to take issue with the characterization of schizophrenia as a mood disorder. Don't know if you've ever seen any, but no way is it a mood disorder. Did one of the websites say that? I just lump them all under mental illness - you know where you go see the psychiatrist for treatment. Well, I've been pursued for 2 years by someone with delusional disorder. {groan} Luckily it is just an internet thing - they want in one of my discussion groups and nothing I say to the person makes a dent about why they can't be in my group. It been quite the journey - at a time when I was so worn out and wasn't up for any challenges. His father just forced him into a mental hospital and on to drugs, but he doesn't like the side-effects and he's going off ... too bad he couldn't go into the hospital and get the nutrients he needs instead ... Wish I would have had this information years ago, though. I searched high and low for nutritional, vitamin, mineral - you name it, for certain issues I dealt with. Didn't have access to the Internet back then. Lynn Yes, too bad the Pharma companies took over the medical schools. It would be such a different world now if " alternatives " had not been systematically quashed. Even Down Syndrome children can turn out almost normal with a special nutritional and physical therapy intervention, but since there is no double blind study, some doctors refuse to tell parents about the program. There's a book called, " A Circle of Friends. " And guess who discovered her little adopted Down's baby was not born retarded, but they become retarded over time without the special program which she and her associates put together - a MOM! Despite what many " professionals " think, moms and dads can reach great academic heights when it comes to helping their children. A doctor and father of an autistic son, Dr. Bernard Rimland, brought together the greatest minds he could find and devised a healing program for autistic children. It's called DAN! Defeat Autism Now! The parents know there is a link between vaccines and autism, but Dr. Julie Gerberding of the CDC stood up just a couple of weeks ago and reaffirmed to world, no there is no link between the massive increase in vaccinations and the massive increase in autism. Who knows the truth? My vote goes to the parents! Dr. Charles Gant has a nutritional program to cure alcoholics, kids with AD/HD, etc. and The Powers That Be in New York State have just dogged the man into the ground, but he managed to pull himself back up. One by one, they drag the alternative doctors through the mud. Another term to google is " orthomolecular psychiatry. " Thank goodness now for the internet! And thank goodness for dedicated parents who help their children get well, and go on to help the other afflicted children of the world, despite the gov shills such as Julie Gerberding.
