You have a chemical imbalance in your brain, so take these chemical drugs, and if it does not work, we will give you more. And, by the way, it never works.


This episode is a personal account of the onset, struggle, and recovery of one who overcame schizophrenia. Having covered this multiple times recently, commonalities in the methods used to recover are evident. Also emerging are commonalities in risk factors contributing to schizophrenia. Drug use can be a major factor. There are, of course, other factors. And at the top of the recovery list, we have examples of spirituality successfully leading the way.

In two recent episodes we have heard outcomes using western spiritual traditions to combat the “voices”. We have also been informed that eastern spiritual traditions have built-in methods specifically intended to deal with the “voices”. On both sides of the world the cause is thought of in much the same way, though different names are assigned to the same problem. From demons and spirits to Jinn and egregores, spiritual causes are replacing the idea of brain chemistry as the main cause.

Drug and alcohol as risk factors are also viewed in much the same way in both the east and west. And while we have first-hand examples of recovery, it has been made very clear that overcoming the “voices” is no easy task. While there are currently no guarantees, examples of success are methods that do not recognize brain chemistry as playing the major role.

I would like to wish you all a happy, healthy, and higher-minded new era.
