				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have written an article on <a title="Mental Health" href="http://blog.soulgrowth.com/articles/mental-health/">Mental Health</a> which can be found via <a title="Mental Health" href="http://blog.soulgrowth.com/articles/mental-health/">this link</a>. It is rather in-depth, and my aim was for my story not to go untold. It should be read ‘in context’ … that is without the knowledge of prior reading of what is on my main website <a href="http://www.soulgrowth.com">www.soulgrowth.com</a> the reader may not get the complete picture how at one point in my life I ended up in such a situation and the effect it has had on me since then.</p>
<p>It is also through dealing with my own personal experience &#8230;<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">I propose that psych doctors actually know a lot less about the brain and hence human consciousness than they tend to say that they know</span> &#8230; even though, by definition &#8211; they are trained in problems of the mind.<br />
For instance, human consciousness is still largely unknown/unstudied by the general scientific community &#8230; modern science still doesn&#8217;t have a 100% complete working theory on consciousness. Also, there are still some things that are unexplained using current textbook methods and approaches.</p>
<p><span style="color:red">One point I would like to stress, is that psychiatrists are still of the opinion that Schizophrenia (hearing voices, etc) is an entirely brain-based (internal) condition : caused by an unbalanced brain bio-chemistry, and only treatable by hospitalisation and the use of anti-psychotic drugs</span> (my own mental health experience highlights this, as well the many papers and science journals I&#8217;ve read since).<br />
YET &#8230; mainstream science is more open-minded, as well as those that are doing groundbreaking research into the field of human consciousness &#8211; they are beginning to accept the possibility &#8211; <strong>that consciousness isn&#8217;t limited to just the boundaries of the brain.</strong></p>
<p>Again &#8230; through my detailed (and very personal) <a title="Mental Health" href="http://blog.soulgrowth.com/articles/mental-health/">Mental Health article</a>, I intend to present the idea that psychiatrists perhaps don&#8217;t know as much about the human brain as they tend to say that they know.</p>
