I provide consultations to persons searching for natural options that offer the promise of helping reverse their symptoms. During many conversations recently, I have heard too many horror stories of what health care practitioners have told people is the “truth” about recovery. I must convey these stories are chilling because they only wind up re-traumatizing you.
All of the horror stories fall into the category of being told you have no choice but to accept the fact you are going to get worse over time. I will not repeat what I have heard, but I suspect you have been told similar stories of doom and gloom.
It seems some health care practitioners get a kick out of scaring people. They have no evidence to back up their false claims. They obviously do not know you or your body! They obviously do not know what will happen to you! Worse of all, they are simply re-traumatizing you. They are doing you serious harm.
I say to you on this day and hour, do not buy into these false predictions. They only become true if you believe what you have been told by someone who is presumably an “expert.”
- Know in your heart, mind and soul that recovery can and will happen.
- Celebrate the stories of other people who have succeeded.
- Honor your own successes with returning to health and wellness. Â
