(((Dinah))),
Guess I didn't use my usually preamblings to qualify and qualify and qualify all over again.
Here's the deal. Roger Penrose and Antonio Dimasio, have bookend studies that you and anyone else can read, study, be amazed by, and incorporate. Along about the time of pubic hair, our brains undergo a major transformation, and not a day toooo late!
These studies were reported over 10 years ago. I first saw Dimasio on the Discovery channel in the early 90's. I ask therapists if they have seen or heard anything about this information. No public mental health professional had heard anything about it as of 2002 when I asked.
Some had this or that reactions to the information. Reponses are mostly vitriolic, loaded with conjecture and derogation. One therapist and close friend of mine I hadn't seen in a couple of years said I was talking about "voodoo".
Most said it had nothing to do with stabilizing beneficiaries (clients). I must agree. It's about wellness not bandaides. I imply that such bandaides serve to distract the therapist from learning new stuff.
There is new stuff. Some new stuff is watershed. Ignoring this watershed stuff returns the same poor results year after year. My hope is it doesn't take another 90 years to accept the obvious.
Ask your therapist for statistics of wellness for clients over time. You design the criteria that would please you.
Does anyone get well? When and how? I would love to be wrong and there be over 50% real success and healing. What a different world that would be?!?!
