I have written several articles over time on this website, and not once was I ever questioned about anything I have said. This would not bother me if I was sure that no one out there was having any problems with the human race. I have an email address that goes to me; this is just another attempt to get some feedback about what I write.
If you want to remain anonymous that is fine with me. ponderland@charter.net or grace.seeker@gmail.com I would love to hear from anyone whether it be negative or positive or unsure what you think, this is just my way of saying that I need to know that what I say might have some value to someone out there in internet space. So, if you don’t want to identify yourself below the article, feel free to contact me privately.
All my life I have struggled to do the right thing without much success in getting it right. Was it a lack of role models? Was it just that I was just too corrupt in my nature to care? Was it the environment that is the blame? I know these are really lame questions, they are meant to be. I don’t think anyone can say that only one cause is to blame for our emotional and physical problems in life.
There are so many things that are a factor in bringing up well adjusted children. It is not readily known to us because we have been lead to believe in a group who has determined that mental illness is something that drugs can cure and talking can change.
If mental illness did really exist it would be either bacteria caused or virus caused, or a gene deficiency leaving the immune deficient and vulnerable. These are the defining characteristics of real illness or root cause which is also what makes up the basis of dieses.
The fact that they are trying to convince people that emotional and spiritual problems are in fact mental illness has created a trillion dollar business for drug companies and mental hospitals and a field of doctors who work on theory based experiments not on sound factual evidence.
There was a time in our history that many believed the world to be flat and anyone on a ship could sail to an end and fall off. There have been many misconceptions in our history until proof of exploration was done by many. We have in this world today many false conceptions about our brain.
Ignorance has compiled a theoretical field of experts to create many myths that are profitable and many do who profit. We have been lead to become dependent upon EXPERTS OR LETTERED DEGREES OF AUTHORITY and have paid lots of money to be given these distinctions. This in itself causes us to believe we are incapable to think for ourselves and solve our own dilemmas or problems.
My contention is that we are and should be ready to analyze our daily problems and come up with some sort of solution without paying someone else to determine what to do about the problem. I am not going to argue that there is no need for Psychology or Psychiatry.
I do contend that while they serve a purpose it should only be to fill in until we ourselves can take over dealing with our own problems along with the help of God.
Where did I go right? It was when I stopped looking to mankind to save me and mine. It was when I stopped passing my responsibility for my problems to others. Yes, I went right when I asked God to help me find my way. I was lost many, many years and always believed I could not do anything about what was wrong.
What really exists in all humans is the possibility of traumas that alter us over a period of time. Recognition of these traumas, will not only release us from the of enslaved conditioned mindsets, but will also give us answers as to why our dysfunctional behavior came about as a direct cause from this abusive environment.
All traumas whether known or unknown alter our perceptions and continue to change our understanding of normality. We are slowly being turned upside down, but learning or being conditioned to see this world of ours as right side up. Our whole perception is askew and we don’t know it. We look for normality or what we see others doing that might appeals to us and strive to change ourselves to fit this life style.
We are not going to be happy. We always start finding the grass is greener somewhere else syndrome. If we knew just how miss askew our world was before we were born then we would know that we need to find what is going to work for us as individuals not as a group. The world is set up as ONE SIZE FITS ALL and that is why any who are individuals early in their lives always question what is wrong with me. Why don’t I fit in? What do I need to do to belong? This is where some kind of relationship with God will help us heal our misperceptions about ourselves.
How can you be normal in a world that does not recognize its own dysfunctional set up? Schools continue this problem of finding our individual needs by the collective system that puts children into groups that depend upon group direction for success. Trauma changed me and sent me in many unnatural directions that took years to overcome and more years to understand them.
Trauma is the unseen cause of all mental problems today. Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome is just now being looked at by the Psychiatry community. Why would anyone not know that war is trauma? To kill others is trauma! To live in fear day in and day out is trauma? Trauma when children are abused sexually and physically? Rejection is trauma, lack of sleep is trauma.
There are too many traumas that would take more space to write than anyone would read. Yes, we don’t really understand how mind altering trauma can be, what is worse we don’t recognize the one who can heal our dysfunctional minds and bring us back to mental health.
We spend our lives looking to man to do for us what God does best. Man has failed to recognize the root causes of mental problems, so he created a solution that furthers our suffering. God has healed my messed up mentally ill mind and gave me back mental health. I can say with absolute conviction that I was mentally dysfunctional for over forty years. I have been on the healed side for over twenty.
If you want to stop taking drugs, for your depression, find out what causes you to be depressed. You did not get depressed by any bacterial infection or virus infection or gene deficiencies; they are the only thing that can be called illness. Diseases have to have a known missing factor in your immune system that allows them to happen, so how can you call a trauma induced problem a disease, unless you want to offer drugs as the cure. The drug companies have a drug for everything including all that they don’t even know how it is gotten.
What does this say to you if you think about it long enough? Can you see that experiments are profitable for business? I won’t go any further with this, but I will say that you do not pay one penny for God to heal you. You don’t have to worry about how long the cure will last and whether or not you can remember how to use the medicine. Many will not accept this for what it is, a simple fact that God can cure all things. All things under the Son are possible with God.

“”"what I say might have some value to someone out there “”"
The go-d thingy doesn’t work for me but I like your article.
“”"Man has failed to recognize the root causes of mental problems,”"”
Well now…one man did. R.D. Lang
He said: “mental illness/insanity is a healthy reaction to an insane world.”
“Keep Right”
“do the right thing”
“Where did I go right?”
“getting it right.”
This doesn’t work for us Lefts.
I’m not about to knuckle under!
We made enough adjustments.
I’m getting it Left;-)
And doing the Left thing
