RE: Mental Illness & Shamanic Experiences (podcast/video)
Mental illness in some if not many cases is a response to the environment.
There was a doctor of some sort from India that moved a mentally ill patient to Africa to live a completely different life. The (previous) mental illness vanished.
Yes, very interesting. I haven't read that case, but there was a similar case where a boy moved from a western country to Africa, talked to shamans, and they said that he was becoming a healer, so of course he responded differently. I guess it's like they say, it's no measure of health to be well-adapted to a sick society.
Yes. Really is no measure. Last year I was living free mostly in the woods. Coming back to the other / society life. But unfortunately got Meningitis and this mental illness is an illness. But I find to be great increased by people's ill informed minds and this includes doctors and lawyers...
Yes, it's hard to find a good doctor sometimes.
