Are There Things About Psychology that Psychologists Don’t Know? – Vol 443, March 1, 2018
This is a delicate subject coming from a person who is an unlicensed professional working with people with all sorts of emotional issues. So take it from where it is coming, as I am not a psychologist, but have worked with many of them, from both sides of the couch – well, doctors, social workers, and psychiatric nurses, in any case, have been among my clients, along with their kids.
First, the basis of psychology is theory, none of it easily proven. So, when you look at the DSM – Diagnostic Statistical Manual they use to diagnose patients, it is based on clusters of behaviors and thoughts categorized into specific illnesses. This is to help them treat their patients as well as to have a way to bill them for services rendered through insurance companies (at least here in the U.S.).
Second, unfortunately, most of them never learn a thing about how the subconscious mind works, therefore they are leaving out the best methods available to help their patients heal. There are always reasons why people have the negative emotions and limiting beliefs they do, with a purpose behind why they developed. Given this truth, if the psychologists worked from this perspective instead of one of pathological symptoms and illnesses, many more people would be able to be healed with much less invasive means (much quicker results without the use of medications in the great majority of cases.) There are people who definitely do need medications and those would be the severely depressed with suicidal or homicidal thoughts and those with psychotic features.
I do believe that as we learn more about the brain and its true function, we are better able to help folks. Dr. Nora Volkow of the National Institute of Drug Abuse has done many brain scans to prove the dopamine rush and loss of dopamine receptors when addicts act out their addictions too often – substance, eating disorders, sex addiction – it doesn’t matter – it all works in the brain the same way.
Dr. Daniel Amen, a psychiatrist, is also a person who is well known for decades of doing brain scans to better understand the physiology of all sorts of mental health illnesses. He treats his patients with nutritional supplements, hypnosis and talk therapy. Because that is the other thing that is missing; many illnesses that look to be psychologically of psychiatrically based are really a result of a lack of proper nutrition, leading to the lack of development of the amino acids that are required for neurotransmitters to be formed for healthy brain function.
So, there is much that we are finding out now, including the fact that hypnosis is merely a process that allows us to bypass the executive functioning part of the brain where reasons, rationalizations, and judgments are created, allowing our clients to easily get in touch with why it is that they have the behaviors and thoughts they have and overriding those that harm them, while having them create ones that work in their best interest. Hypnotism goes back millennia and was used for amputations in the 1800’s in the theatre of war in India before we even knew that bacteria existed or found chemicals like ether to anesthetize people safely for such surgery. Dr. James Esdaile is the surgeon who did these operations in India had a 95% success rate.
Your mind is your best asset if you only learn how to use it. Bruce Lipton, a cellular biologist speaks of this in the first chapter of his book “Biology of Belief.”
