G'day,

When this happens, it is almost like a slice of memory is removed/destroyed, and this disconnects everything that happened before that slice. The memories still exist, but access to them is denied.

Long term memories sometimes return in time.

Yes, better to focus on the root cause. Once this has been addressed, memories may return.

I recommend that you follow this link http://www.babiesneedmothers.com/

And go to the menu 'works' and watch the vids under 'schizophrenia is unnecessary'

Dr Mackenzie can be contacted via email and he will respond, if you'd like to discuss your friend's condition. He has a radically new approach that is very successful.

I also suggest you read this site and some of the links

Eye opening, to say the least, in that many mental illnesses can be caused by vitamin deficiencies.

Quoted from the above link

"When vitamin B3 or niacin was first added as an enrichment or as a fortification to flour, about half of the people in mental institutions went home. This is not a well-known fact. They were there not because they were mentally ill – because of genetic, environment, or social reasons – but because they were malnourished... He wondered about the half that didn't go home. What about the people that had a little bit of niacin, but didn't get better? ... [H]e started giving what at the time were preposterously high doses of niacin: 3,000 milligrams a day. And he was curing schizophrenia in 80 percent of the cases.
This is astonishing. The cure rate for schizophrenia with drug therapy is not particularly good. Dr. Hoffer saw again and again that niacin worked. Then he studied it, did the placebo-controlled, double-blind test, and started writing paper after paper on this. At that point, the American Psychiatric Association literally blacklisted him."
According to Dr. Saul, other researchers have since confirmed Dr. Hoffer's findings, and found that niacin can also be successfully used in the treatment of other mental disorders, such as:

  • Attention deficit disorder
  • General psychosis
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder
  • Bipolar disorder "
