A brief clip by Daniel Mackler, in interview with Dr Ross talking about a patient who was experiencing horrific voices .
After being able to talk with Dr Ross and explore what the experience might mean, she was able to live with it without medications – the difficulty she experienced melted away.
“I had no clue about what was going to happen, I simply told her what I felt. that gave her permission to feel she no llonger needed that “symptom” any more.”
from Daniel Mackler’s excellent documentary: “Take These Broken Wings”.

I cautiously agree but it’s not always so instant. I’ve personally witnessed my friend of 25 yrs. go from being an angry woman, diagnosed with Schizophrenia and institutionalized a number of times only to be discharged with her confusion and anger still intact if not much worse, to becoming a warm and evolved, drug free person, successful in her work and in a loving relationship. Throughout those years she had found many therapies that eventually, as Dr. Ross mentioned, helped to give her permission to feel she no longer needed those symptoms anymore.

Hi Midori,
I’d suggest it is never instant. I know lots of people who’ve recovered – none instantly.
There is certainly nothing instant in this story. nothing.
If you watch the [whole]movie you’ll realize it took eight years before anything happened.
perhaps the truly modern sickness is expecting instant results just like we see on tv?
k.
