Nervous breakdown question

Sorry to hear about your friend, here is my take.

Psychiatry in my experience is where a Dr listens to your symptoms and then prescribes a compound or chemical to change your symptoms based upon their medical diagnosis.

A psychologist talks to you and tries to understand what you are going through and helps to guide you through as best as possible without destroying yourself.


I have had major depression for about 20 years, and found that the battery of SSRI meds that are employed as a first line of intervention caused me FAR more issues (potentialy life ending) than being depressed ever did.

Depression is a drag, but going insane may be more of a drag.


Good luck.

The etiology for something like this is highly complex now due to multi-factor nature.

I went through what seemed like a "nervous breakdown" in 2003 which turned out to be high levels of Hg in my system.

Western medicine can take a person going through something as nebulous as a breakdown into the complete abyss.

They did everything to me and nearly killed me. Terrifying ordeal and the medications?! Holy f'ing shite!

Things that can cause a meltdown now:

Toxicity (metal, chemical, etc.)
RF / EM exposure
Biotoxins from microbiological sources (lyme, mycotoxins)
Trauma (physical / emotional)

And naturally combinations of the above.

Hope the dude putts his way outta the weeds.

Avoid meds though. Never seen anything good happen long term from those.
