Helping brain problems

There are several approaches to help deal with brain problems. Each attempts to bring about a desired change in its own way.

The medical approach to brain problems

Western medicine (allopathic medicine) asks questions and uses tests to diagnose (label) brain problems and diseases. This approach attempts find solutions by diagnosing and then prescribing. Often the solution is pharmaceutically or surgically based. This approach is more focussed on treating symptoms rather than dealing with the underlying cause(s).

The psychological approach to brain problems

The psychological approaches attempt to deal with personal issues. Some psychological models use questionnaires and patient interviews which are then compared to standardized results (which are refered to as “normal”). A diagnosis is then made. Many psychological approaches try to assist patients in changing their perspective to relieve the diagnosed problem(s).

Psychological models require the brain to change from out-side-in based on talking and/or behavior therapy. Change is possible but can require months or years. It can be time consuming and costly. The success rate is unpredicable.

The brain balance approach to brain problems

The brain balance approach believes that healthy balanced brain function gives rise to a balanced life and that living a balanced life reinforces brain balance.

This approach believes that when there is brain balance there are fewer psychological and health problems. And when problems arise, it easier to deal with them.

This approach looks to nutrition, supplementation, lifestyle, and brain balance programs to achieve brain balance.

I havent had too much luck with the medical approach. I would go so far as to say that it has created more problems for me than it has solved. So I have become very leery of western medicine for all but serious accidents and life threatening traumas.

I don't say this lightly as there are several doctors in my family and they too are very aware of the problems with this type of medicine.
