even if that were slightly true, it would only be a small portion of the whole truth. our lifestyles in general contribute to the seriousness of disorders in the western world.

Parasites leading to misdiagnosis of Schizophrenia and BiPolar? If they affect the neurological system and if the test are inaccurate then this could be possible.

This is common for Lyme disease patients due to conflicting CDC/IDSA guidelines and inaccurate tests. I know from 1st hand experiences that many patients with Lyme disease, Rickettsia, Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Bartonella and other tick-borne illnesses can develop a long list of complex neurological symptoms that is often misdiagnosed. Some common misdiagnosis of Lyme disease are: MS, Parkinson's, Schizophrenia, BiPolar, ADD/ADHD, Autism, Fibromyalgia, Alzheimer’s, Circadian Rhythm disorder and Thyroid disease. I was misdiagnosed for years. Everyday I meet more and more patients that had been misdiagnosed.

Manic depression and Bipolar disorder are linked to GET THIS... Nutrient deficiencies. yup! you heard me right. just like our plants.. a little help of probiotics (beneficials) bring down candidae or yeast & fungal levels to better absorb specific vitamins, minerals, aminos, etc. that your body rejects due to PH LEVELS of FOOD or DRINK...

I have been taking a bunch of supplements that are designed to help me with my ups n downs. I have been on the truehope Empower+ program for just about 5 months. Ive been taking inositol, Vit C, EMpower+, olive leaf extract, L-Aminos, and a probiotic daily, as well as drinking alkali water at about 9.0PH and I havent had as much as a panic attack, or a single feeling of depression after the 3rd week.

I was hiding in my room from imaginary cops who were going to raid me, and was popping 2mg klonapins like mentos, poppin tons of opiates, taking 20-30mg of ambien to get high with a bottle of goose and a gram of blow to try to just pass out and never wake up. I wanted to die. I couldn't take it another day so I did some research of my own, and after finding no chemical solution, and hearing that halidol or lithium may be my only answer, I visited a naturopath. they strongly suggested I ween off the drugs and check out https://www.truehope.com.

I checked them out, and I watched a discovery channel special on truehopes groundbreaking answer to bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. as I read and watched these shows or youtube vids I quickly related the products to a good nutrient line for my plants, and how simple these symptoms could just disappear, as If I flushed my plants and gave them some cal mag to replenish what R/o stripped from my water... I'm off everything but Ambien which I take about 1x a week now.

I have replaced my medications with vitamins designed for manic depression and it totally works. I have never been more mentally stabile my whole life. Where was this stuff when I was an adolescent? its not cheap, but it saved my life. its a lot cheaper than drugs n booze that only made me feel worse. Exercise helps too.

I know what its like to not want to exist anymore. it didnt take god or jesus to fill the void. just some simple ass vitamins and fatty omega 3's. about 4-5 months ago I was diagnosed with non hodgkins lymphoma attributed to pesticides. after endoscopic surgery, radiation therapy, and other organic goodies, I managed to stay positive and was very proactive in my recovery. if it wasnt for Empower, I probably would of just offed myself. I'm not sick anymore, I don't fill depressed all the time, I know there is light at the end of the tunnel, nothing is impossible, and I got a new lease on life.

I'm back on a BMX at 35 with a broken back and new elbow (radial head replacement). I'm buildin grow rooms and shootin action pistol on weekends. I have a life now that doesn't start and end with drugs or depression, anxiety, or hallucinations. I beat cancer! I learned master CAM & took up machining as a new hobby. the human mind is pretty incredible as well as resistant. some vitamins, therapy and exercise has improved my life 1000%. just something to think about.

I take the same vitamins, probiotics, herbal supplements and follow the same diet as bipolar patients.

@toohighmf Truehope.com is a nice site, thanks.

Very interesting idea.

The concept of parasites causing cancer is one that I can envision.

But schizophrenia and bipolar disorder? How is it that psychological talk therapy can alleviate these diseases if they are caused by parasites?

People can definitely be talked down. Parasites... not so much.

We have a whole myriad of bacteria which live in and interact with the digestive system to process food so our bodies can absorb it.

Some neurological symptoms that flair-up during stress can be "talked down."

I have some conspiracy breaking news for you guys....

Ive been treated by haloperidol for more then one disease, and by a shitload of other meds and i can say that haloperidol made me feel worse then anything else. So i want my parasites happy, ill keep feeding them THC.

I think all of this has to be taken with a grain of salt, if they are parsitical infections for example wouldnt third world countries have massively enlarged demographics with mental illness?

They cant, they give people a better understanding of how to deal with the disease is all. Once youve been whacked in the face 99 times, the 100th doesnt seem so bad , with coaching you might not even notice it.
