Your mental and emotional state plays a massive part in the development of pain. But when it comes to dealing with the causes of depression and anxiety, the wool has been pulled over your eyes. The wool has been pulled over your doctors’ eyes. It is a hoax. There is no reliable science to back it up.
And the lack of reputable science behind the “chemical imbalance myth” as the cause for depression and anxiety becomes glaringly apparent when you ask people why they have been prescribed anti-depressants.
Prof Gotzsche’s book gives thousands of examples of medical deception and misconduct especially in the area of pain relief and mental health
“The doctor tells me that I am suffering from depression because of a chemical imbalance in my brain. That’s why I need to take these for the rest of my life.”
“Did they measure the levels of chemicals in your brain?”
“No.”
“So how do they know for sure that you have this chemical imbalance in your brain when they haven’t tested you for it?”
“I don’t know”
And therein lies the problem…you don’t know and your doctor doesn’t know!
What you don’t realize, is that although your doctor may know a lot about diseases, they know very little about the drugs they prescribe that hasn’t been carefully concocted and dressed up by the drug industry.
But some may ask, why do I feel bad if I go off of them?
Two words…DRUG WITHDRAWAL
Yes, you have become drug dependent… just like a junkie is dependent upon heroin or cocaine… because these drugs that are meant to help you have been shown to actually cause a chemical imbalance!!!
“Psychotropic drugs don’t fix a chemical imbalance, they cause it, which is why it is so difficult to come off the drugs again. If taken for more than a few weeks, these drugs create the disease they were intended to cure”
Prof Peter Gotzsche, founder of the prestigious Cochrane Research Group
You may then be wondering, what actually causes depression and anxiety?
The truth is that anxiety and depression are emotions. They are emotions that you create. Numerous areas of your lifestyle influence your emotions. Depression and anxiety are the natural response to certain habitual ways of thinking that is prompting feedback in the form of unpleasant feelings. This doesn’t diminish in any way the serious and significant impact this can have on people’s lives.
Depression and anxiety are nothing to be ashamed about. In fact, it is something I am proud of in my own personal history. Despite feeling awful, having feelings of depression and anxiety does not mean that something is “wrong” with you. In reality, it’s your body telling you that the way you are using your mind and body is producing an emotional outcome that you don’t desire.
In fact, depression and anxiety show you that you are a success…a success in creating powerful emotions! If you have the ability to successfully create emotions like anxiety and depression you also possess the ability to create other emotions by using different patterns of thinking over time.
But like any learnt skill, creating other powerful emotional states requires vigilant practice over time.
You can do it. You are a lot more powerful than you think.
