In fact, if you interpret all the science around this field and you really look at what's being tested, you actually will see it's not a, they've been looking for the neurobiological correlates.
They've been looking for where in the brain is depression.
And for years, we've been told about the
the serotonin imbalance causing depression i mean that's not even it was a theory never proven great for marketing for you know for telling drugs and also the simplistic way of telling someone hey you're depressed don't worry it's chemical imbalance let me give you a drug to fix it you know it's we want this quick fix mentality so with as medicine has advanced and technology has advanced so we've become very caught up in the quick fix and but life's not like that mind is not like that mind is separate from brain and body
You can apply that kind of thinking, not quick fix, but you can apply a symptomatic diagnosis treatment approach to body, to physical brain and body.
But when it comes to mind, there's this gravitational field, this force, this think, feel, choose thing.
A medication is not going to change how you're thinking, feeling, and choosing.
It's not going to get rid of this.
It's just going to numb your brain.
So maybe you don't feel this while it's working.
But at the same time as then when that drug wears off, this is still there.
This is still being recognized by the immune system of your brain as a problem.
So this is increasing your vulnerability.
The longer it's there, the more you increase your vulnerability to disease.
A moment.
gosh you know and this is what gets you stuck and these are the patterns so no it's not an illness it is a normal human response mental health has always been an issue notice from the beginning of time mankind has battled with life with issues with death with fighting with war with whatever so mental health is not on the rise but the mismanagement of mental health making it a disease has created a whole new problem wow so here so here we sit with before the pandemic
They started doing a population study in the mid-90s, and this is when I was still practicing, early days of my practicing, sort of 10 years into my work.
And I started seeing this trend of, and I was watching the study, where people were, the decades-long trend of people living longer.
So we know, we all hear this message.
This is what we've heard.
