Mental Distress Due to Type 2 Diabetes – Vol. 551 – May 21, 2020
I have a bit of a story to share with you on this particular subject.
About five years ago I received a call from my best friend from college. He was 52 at the time. This was the third time that I had ever heard him be in such distress in over 30 years of friendship. He told me that he was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and that he was scared by that diagnosis. He reminded me of his older brother dying from a heart attack that was secondary to uncontrolled type 2 diabetes when he was only 50 years old. I also knew that his father had been dealing with type 2 diabetes for years as well. So, I personally was not surprised to hear this from him, given that he absolutely loved carbohydrates and especially sweet sugary things, most especially ice cream and gelato.
Diabetes can indeed cause mental distress because of the terrible health conditions that can come from it. People can become anxious and/or depressed. Depending on their blood sugars they can become irritable, some looking as if they are drunk, even though they are not. One of my past roommates blacked out while driving and had her car impounded costing her a few hundred dollars to retrieve.
However, the biggest distress people have over this diagnosis is the fact that conventional doctors are not able to treat them effectively. They may start on a low dose of metformin, then they are given a higher dose when that does not work. Next comes more pills and then finally insulin. And all the while the patients are getting sicker and sicker because blood glucose is not the problem, it is the symptom.
I have been studying this for a while, because my best friend from college, Richard, actually died on the operating table while he was on vacation with his girlfriend. They landed in Miami, headed for the beach and he had a seizure. Whisked off to the hospital to find he had all sorts of problems, including internal bleeding and a very weakened heart. They were trying to put a stent in his heart when he died on the table, age 57.
Dr. Jason Fung, a nephrologist has specialized in treating those with type 2 diabetes. He accepts the fact that blood sugars do need to be dealt with in those whose blood sugars are very high, but that is not the cause of the problem and has never been the problem. The real problem is insulin resistance. Insulin does not get rid of the sugar – it takes the sugar that is in your blood and pushes it into all your body parts – rotting your body parts.
So, one has to ask why someone who has a resistance to a substance is put on more of it? He likens it to giving a shaking alcoholic more alcohol to stop the shakes as the alcoholism gets worse.
So, how does one take care of this problem? Very simply by altering one’s diet and eating less food to allow the sugar in the body to be burned. What a concept? Treat the illness based on its cause. We know that this works because those who have had bariatric surgery have had their stomachs made smaller, were eating a lot less food and in a matter of weeks their sugar and insulin levels went down and they had reversed their diabetes. We have known that fasting has worked since 1918. All the major religions have periods of fasting in them – they knew that this was good for the body. And it is because it allows the body to get rid of dead and damaged cells, it allows the body to use the sugar and after that, it burns the fat. It also helps with increasing human growth hormone which decreases massively once a person is in their 30s. So, for all these reasons Dr. Fun uses intermittent diets to help type 2 diabetics to reverse their disease.
However, there is one problem with all of this great information and that is that most people find it very difficult to do this on their own. So, I am in the process of putting together an online live program to teach people how to go about doing this safely and with their doctor’s support. Using the ability of the unconscious mind to eat healthier foods, to increase that activity level, and to have a positive mindset, letting go of those things that perhaps have put you more at risk for developing the disease in the first place.
I know my best friend from college had spent decades dealing with his parents and their issues, and then he had years of dealing with his daughter and her poor choices. It is my belief that he really died of a broken heart. There is something to these sayings you know.
One of the best modern hypnotists of our day, Jerry Kien stated years ago after working with type 2 diabetics that they had built up resentments and sadness mostly toward the way they treated those they loved. I would say, that any program that is going to truly help people needs to take these issues into account and get them cleared. And the best way I know of doing that is through the use of hypnosis. I have helped people do this sort of thing through my Facebook lives when I couldn’t see them and yet, they still had great results.
So, if you are a person who has this issue, or if you know of someone who is dealing with this issue, do get in touch with me. The program is going to be starting in June and I look forward to helping those of you who find yourselves with this condition a holistic way to let it be in your past.
You can email me at suzanne@dawningvisions.com. We will set up a time for a consultation call to see if you are a good fit for the program. Because it is a beta program it is going to be done live so only 20 people will be in it. Being in beta, those who participate will be able to give their input and access the program at half its actual price once it is in its final state.
Type 2 diabetes can be quite destructive before one dies from the complications that it causes, however, that needn’t be the case, not at all. It’s your choice of course.
