The everlasting search for Harmony in the brain is the lead to new treatments

The new era of Mental Health

Current treatments for Mental Illness are turning out underperforming in view of new research and options.

Not a breaking-news, to tell the truth: Psychiatry was predicted of getting absorbed into Neurology by this decade.
The practice is virtually still alive, although headed towards supervised hospital settings’ treatments.
Former illegal drugs are found to be effective for MDD within one hour infusion, compared to months with traditional antidepressants, if not ineffective at all.

Pros and Cons of Hospitalisation.

Hospitals provide a safe environment for patients.
The Cons are reduced independence, although results outweigh it, apparently.
Patients must visit the hospital every few weeks, since the infusions require bimonthly boosters on average.
Conversely, traditional antidepressants may work in the long-term.
Hospital treatments are still implemented for regular therapy-resistant subjects, though many want immediate relief.
Pharmaceuticals didn’t downplay by pushing new drugs into legalisation.

The Dosage Controversy.

So, something very suspicious is coming to light, and the mischief would qualify for pure Plagiarism.
Most Recreational Drugs on the Black Market, these days, were developed for medical use in the 60/70 s.
The 80 s marked the beginning of Prohibitionary use of these chemicals by Governments, in so passing the monopoly to powerful criminal organizations which tampered with them.

Nowadays, the Drug business has gotten out of hand, with the introduction of poisonous chemicals.An example are opioids: 1g. powder sold as heroin, contains 4% heroin and 96% fentanyl.

Latest findings show the benefits of recreational drugs in Mental Illness at appropriate doses, starting with Cannabis, Ketamine, Psychedelics, Cocaine, Amphetamines, to mention the most common.
Ketamine has already been given FDA approval in hospital settings for the cure of MDD. Cannabis is long available by prescription in alternative to benzodiazepines.

Have we been deceived about drugs all the time?
We’ll never know. What is certain is that we are up to something big.
Pharmaceuticals are fast to adjusting for profit.
What I envision as a critical moment is the survival of pharmacies, already seeing significant declines in sales, particularly in psychotropics, their main source of income until recently.
My hope is that current hospital formulas will become available to pharmacies after safety trials. 

Let’s see what happens…

Mental Harmony 

Neuroscientists are unveiling what they coined “Search for Harmony of the Brain” for new treatments.
Evidence suggests the Brain being set for Wellbeing. We would mess up with it through Negative Thoughts and Emotions.
In other words, we self-sabotage with Life Experiences. Mental Illness would be the battle between our self-fabricated delusions and the Brain-fight against them.
Current medication is symptomatic only.

Brain Stimulation 

Several Noninvasive Cerebral Electrodotal Stimulation procedures  are already underway, although Stimulation can also be performed with former no medical means like Music.

Music is now fully acknowledged as therapy, either by passive or active exposure.
We all speak Music. 
Musical waves can be passed under sedation to resistant patients, or selected voluntarily.

Scientists discovered that Music anticipates Rewarding, Repairing Emotions by a 16 seconds timeframe.
Active listeners know what genre works best for them.
We see it in movies, where we envision the outcome of the next scene by the soundtrack. Here is the connection between Music and Imagery.

The theory is that regular listening will abate Negative Thoughts.
Thoughts are naturally negative when resulting from Rumination, since we can’t see the future, what is referred to as “Fear of the Unknown”.
Musical Emotions are not necessarily Predictions, though Harmonic Desires activate Reward Systems and enhance Motivation, a powerful weapon for MDD.

Silence is losing its momentum as Calming therapy.
Unless Silence is Music, a rarity in our society.
I would define Silence as “Sound of Nature”.

The new era of Mental Health has begun.
