Bipolar - Psychology

Ph.D. Psychologist Dr. John Breeding talks about the psychology bipolar disorder. #Psychetruth #WellnessPlus

[MrBenquo]

After I moved to MI, I saw a doctor for migraines. He asked me How I came to live in MI and i explained that my daughter lived here, the result of a long distance relationship. The doctor then asked if I usually "up and leave my home and move to another state" i said "i didn't 'up and move'" but he said "i think you are bi-polar" and prescribed a mood stabilizer. He effectively took an act of love and responsibility for my baby girl and turned it into a brain defect. I never saw that quack again

This video is priceless, misdiagnosing an individual can have many consequenses. It destroys a persons life forever. They are left vulnerable. Unable to take a stand for anything.

I was just in the mental hospital for suiciside, they told me i need medication, i told them with respect, i have no ilness, just a broken heart. i do not take medication now, cause its all about yourself, don't let people tell you need medicine. Look inyourself, and there is always a way, and if anybody ever just wants a friend to talk to feel free to email and will help u with what i can while also on my road to my own recovery

Good job. It's really sad when parents try to really press their ideas on you.

you speak the truth...I have a sweet friend who was a great school teacher, but she was taking Adderall for years, when she was taken off it, she became manic, now she can't work and has bi-polar disorder.

This is my life story.

Thankfully, I am finally 6 months free/sober of 'medications' after 10 years.

Ages 15-25 and several labels. I am so happy, healthy, free, and I enjoy good peer relationships, reading, I am in love with a wonderful man, I love running through the woods, and I am painting unlike ever before.

Thank you Dr. Breeding, from the bottom of my heart.

I was diagnosed as bipolar with psychotic features. Truth was, I had a food allergy and needed more omega-3 fatty acids. I quit eating animals with hooves (beef, pork, venison, lamb, etc) and added some omega-3's to my diet in the form of oily fish (salmon, tuna, mackerel, etc.) Within 2 weeks, I was sleeping normally, my thoughts had quit racing, all the OCD tics were gone and I wasn't bipolar anymore. It's been 10 years since I took a single drug for bipolar. It can't hurt to try this.

The DSM is revised as new information is adapted into it. Yes, it is a collection of symptoms for a Disorder, that's what symptoms are. Cancer has many treatments, as does BiPolar. Different medications have different success rates for different people. The mind and mental illness are complex.

YouTube puts the adverts on the videos. I have no control over what ads get placed on or next to my videos.

The idea that you could psychoanalyze a historical figure whom you couldn't possibly meet face to face indicates the phoniness of this whole field gone wild completely detatched from reality.

its cheaper to treat mental dis-ease with drugs than good relationships, good food and time.

I couldn't agree more! I'm bipolar and meds saved my life. It took years to work out the right combination and those years were living hell with countless suicide attempts and so much reckless behaviour. But once I got it right, my life was great again, I'm normal. I have a job, can make decisions, live regularly and most of all, I'm happy! This guy is destructive with what he's saying. The illness is REAL and needs TREATMENT. How dare he. I know the lows and the highs and they are hell.

I m a modern psychologist, i have studied frued and all that for the sake of the certificate, other wise psychology itself causes more fear, its like a dark forest, lots of crap, many diseases and disorders exactly like flu or any other bacterial disease can be fully treated a psychologist usualy wants u to be his patient for long time for his benefit, i concluded nearly 70% of stress, depression can be healed with religion and faith in God, rest need medication exercise etc, therapies

If you resist, suppress, or demonize "bipolar" you will never heal. The healing process is often painful and more than a few of us have undergone severely painful experiences that society tells us to shut up about. Psychiatrists seem to have succeeded when they are able to dull the *behavior* of a person, but they do this exclusively through the use of prescription drugs which amount to no more than a chemical lobotomy. I'll chose my own drugs, thank you ;-)

He has several videos where he discusses disorders actually.

[karinhiebert]

I have learned this about myself, I have been diagnosed with bipolar...what I have recently learned is that "the law of polarity" applies to us, our moods, thoughts, feels etc.!
I do believe labels and diagnosis are given out to quickly without deep investigation by the physian!

[psychetruth]

The debate is over if the experience is real or not. The debate is over what the experience is caused by. Is it biological, psychological, nutritional, genetic or in the case of the children he mentioned, chemically induced.
