The wise unconscious mind showed me that I was crazy, and that my absurd ideas would provoke too much destruction in this already horrible world. So, I accepted to obey to the guidance I was receiving in order to be cured and help the unconscious mind cure the others thanks to my example. This is why I can guarantee you everything that no human doctor can: the medicine is not mine. I am only a translator and a helper.

As healthcare reform is becoming a reality, there is much to celebrate within the mental health community. This includes passage of a healthcare reform package that includes parity for mental health and addiction services, expansion of Medicaid to 133% of Federal Poverty Level, inclusion of behavioral health organizations and individuals with mental illnesses in the new Medicaid medical home state option, and authorization and increased funding for grants co-locating mental health treatment and primary care.

Mental health problems including anxiety related disorders and depression, are extremely common but despite the fact that there are many people suffering there is still a lot stigma surrounding mental health issues and as such it's not uncommon for an individual to try to battle it out on their own, keeping their thoughts and fears to themselves, in an attempt to avoid facing up to the fact that they need help.

We know they decorated their belongings, and had a form of culture in the manner in which they buried their dead.

As physical waste following digestive processes accumulate before evacuation from the body, so mental material ie. thoughts and ideas, accumulate awaiting our rejection or elimination of them from our minds.

It is toxic waste material that causes most concern in the environment and is now considered unacceptable to the community worldwide.

To cure any illness it is the acknowledgement from the patient that he or she is having that illness which leads to consulting a medical expert for advice; same is the case with the illness called depression. Normally it's the feeling of being ashamed that prevents you or your dear one from making a confession about depression as an illness that they carry.
