If you’re suffering from an episode of stress, depression or anxiety and your finding life real hard right now, it’s more than likely you will turn to a health professional for help. It is absolutely essential to ensure you get the correct treatment. Most sufferers do not and undergo treatment that amounts to little more than quackery. So how can you be sure you’re not one of them?

Here’s 3 critical questions to ask a therapist. DO NOT accept treatment unless you get the correct answers.

1. The most important question of them all: What, exactly, is causing me to feel this way? Because if you’re going to conquer these illnesses once and for all, you have to know what the root cause is. If your therapist answers anything other than flawed modes of thinking, DO NOT USE THEM. OK, the most common answer you will get is chemical imbalances. This is just quackery, plain and simple because chemical imbalances have never been proven to cause stress, anxiety or depression. You may also get answers such as traumatic event, illness and genetics. ALL OF THESE SIMPLY AREN’T TRUE. What makes you feel so bad is modes of thinking and ONLY modes of thinking. And you will have performed them for years, since childhood for most sufferers. Any other answer amounts to quackery and will lead the therapist to recommend antidepressant drug therapy. If this happens to you, please ask this question:

2. Why are you prescribing antidepressants for me? Antidepressant drugs are used to treat chemical imbalances within the brain. Therapists will say you feel so bad because you have a lack of “happy chemicals” in your brain, particularly serotonin. THIS HAS NEVER BEEN PROVEN. You can look anywhere you want, you can ask any therapist, doctor, professor or even the President himself and not one of them will be able to provide a single shred of evidence for chemical imbalances causing stress, depression, or anxiety. Many therapists will prattle on about chemical imbalances, using their medical knowledge to bamboozle you and to get you onto long-term drug therapy. It’s quackery and fortunately, you will expose it as such by asking this:

3. How do you know I have a chemical imbalance? Amazingly, there is NO TEST to establish chemical imbalances. This begs the question: how on earth can drugs treat chemical imbalances when a test to determine the imbalance hasn’t been carried out? And even if a test did prove that you had low levels of certain chemicals, where is the evidence to prove that the imbalance CAUSES stressful illnesses? There isn’t any. Drugs are not the answer. The only way to get rid of stress, depression and anxiety is to treat the root cause and the root cause is flawed, harmful modes of thinking.

It is so very important to be aware of what treatment is being recommended to you. The important issue at stake here is of sufferers who need help being given expensive, powerful treatments that cannot cure them; treatments with no proven, scientific evidence of addressing the problem they claim to cure.
