Dear Rawn,

You are right. There was one woman that did treat her patients 
as a whole with constant around the clock care. She died about a 
year ago which is unfortunate. She would invite many schizophrenic 
people into her home and have them live with her so she could give 
them constant care. I can't remember what her belief was concerning 
medication though. To the shock of the psychiatric community, she 
actually had quite a bit of success. It is amazing considering she 
was dealing with multiple patients at a time in her "halfway house."

>From what I have noticed with watching some of the people in this 
strange town that I live in is that they seem to be separated. The 
best analogy for this is when I used to correct my parents television 
picture when it would get out of alignment. All over the large 
screen were these "X" shaped figures. The "X" figures were made up 
of 3 colours; green, red, and blue. If they were in alignment the 
colours would coincide to make white. Sometimes they would be more 
aligned than at other times. 

One of my friends that I used to walk with a lot would have this 
strange separation. The mental matrix would loosen and would retreat 
elsewhere; dissociate is maybe a better word. It just seemed that 
her mind was sinking back in her head around the baricenter, if that 
makes any sense. Every time I noticed this I would clap my hands and 
it would come back. 

It just seems like there is this strange tension or anxiety brought 
on by some sort of trauma or the physiological nuances of the fight 
or flight aspects of the nervous system that are effecting everything 
else and throwing things off balance. 

I guess this is why I enjoy relaxing and having conversations with 
others because when I am relaxed, my bodies are relaxed with little 
tension. The conversation, if it is engaging, brings them to the 
present and helps me stay aligned with the shakey psychiatric history 
of mine.

This is somewhat analogous to what the woman would do with her 
patients in her home. She would take care of them, almost treating 
them as if they were children; not patronizing, just treating them in 
ways where it was age appropriate for their mind. Then she would 
raise them, helping them to grow up with a balance. She would re-
imprint them, so to speak, where many of these people were able to 
function normally because she reintegrated them. 

Too bad that the scientific world is having difficulty substantiating 
and accepting the more subtle. Hopefully, in the future, science 
will be able to deduce what is known.

Thanks again for your knowledge Rawn. It always gets my mind going 
in ways that help me find correlaries from the hermetic world to this 
world.
