“Because drugs have become so profitable, major medical journals rarely publish studies on nondrug treatments of mental health problems.31 Practitioners who explore treatments are typically marginalized as “alternative.” Studies of nondrug treatments are rarely funded unless they involve so-called manualized protocols, where patients and therapists go through narrowly prescribed sequences that allow little fine-tuning to individual patients’ needs. Mainstream medicine is firmly committed to a better life through chemistry, and the fact that we can actually change our own physiology and inner equilibrium by means other than drugs is rarely considered.” Mental HealthMental IllnessEffectivenessPsychotherapyMental Health BiasAlternative TherapyPsychiatric DrugsAlternative TreatmentsClinical LiteratureClinical TrialLack Of ResearchMedical Journals Book:The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma Source: The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma
