Without Imaging
Psychiatrists only medical specialists who rarely looks at organ they treat
Cardiologists look
Neurologists look
Orthopedists look
All other specialties look
Psychiatrists guess
There is a reason most psychiatric medications have “Black Box” warnings
It’s Not Working Very Well! Psychiatric Outcomes Have Not Improved in Decades
Insel, NIMH, “The unfortunate reality is that current medications help too few people to get better and very few people to get well.”
Antidepressants effect similar to placebo, except for severely depressed
Antipsychotics and stimulants no more effective than in 1954

Not Looking at the Brain Hurts Patients and Families
Symptom based diagnoses are misleading – many ways to depression
Lead to one-size-fits-all treatments – no understanding of illness subtypes
Often completely miss TBI, toxicity or infections – often the primary cause of psychiatric symptoms
Misses that some psychiatric medications are toxic to brain function
Not Looking at the Brain Hurts Patients and Families
Miss a huge opportunity to K stigma, J compliance
What If Mental Health Was Really Brain Health?
Not Looking at the BrainHurts Society
Organizations like NFL/NHL remained in denial for decades about long term effects of TBI
Military personnel with TBI are often left without appropriate help and hope – 700,000 veterans are incarcerated and suicidal leads the way for premature death
Costly dementias are not diagnosed until late in illness
Underachievement
School failure
Job failure
Relationship problems
Legal problems
Failed therapy attempts
Multiple failed med trials
Residential treatment can cost ~$100,000 a year for troubled teens
28 day drug treatment is ~ $20-80,000/month
Psychiatric hospital stays often > $2,000 a day
Permanent disability is extremely costly
Ineffectively Treated Brain Problems Are Expensive & Painful!

3. Engage in regular brain healthy habits – DP diet, exercise, new learning, sleep, and stress management
2. Clear Focus and Purpose
“Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you,
whom you have received from God?
(1 Cor 6:19)
What is your motivation to be healthy?Honor God’s gift of your body

3. Kill the ANTs
Be transformed by the renewingof your mind. (Romans 12:2)
Be Transformed, Renew Your Mind Whenever you feel sad, mad, nervous or out of
control write down what you’re thinking and talk back to yourself.
This plan won’t work.
I always relapse.
It’s hopeless.
I am too far gone.
This technique found to treat depression, anxiety disorders, and help people lose weight.
4. Focus Your Attention
It’s not just about you. It’s about generations of you.
Epigenetics Habits turn on and off genes
Make illnesses more or less likely
Choices affect generations
Get it
Give it away
Keep it forever
