I’m approaching the one year anniversary date of the second brain injury that almost killed me. I entered the ICU on December 25th of last year. I was unconscious for several days and then when I woke up I had lost virtually all my memory. Conveniently and fortunately I remembered Paul, my partner, but so confused, I also thought he was one of the MDs in the hospital. So, yeah, it’s been a long haul to where I am now. ...
Secondary to the brain injury in December I've now had raging hyperthyroid for months. It's clear that psychosis isn't something this body/mind does easily anymore since I do not sleep anymore than 2 hours a night and often less. The level of taxation on the body is through the roof. I'm in hell, for sure, and as lucid as can be. Sleeplessness is used as torture for good reason.
These are the status updates and tweets since my trip began in chronological order. I'm swamped and don't have time to do anything more formal. At some point I will because so much more is happening than what I'm able to share in these limited reflections. *** August 18. (while flying) The amount of stimulation among... Continue Reading →
It’s clear to me that many of us not only heal but transform into something healthier and more whole than we ever were before psych drugs.

As I have cleansed (detoxed) I've healed long-standing autoimmune disease as well as brain injury imparted from psych drugs. "Mental health issues" associated with trauma also cleared up as the layers of dissociation disappeared with the biofilm matrixes. Word "disappeared" while true, belies the real work involved in letting go. This has both an emotional/spiritual process and a physical one. Both have been critically important processes in the healing process. We are truly one. There is no separation between the physical and the emotional. No separation between body and mind. And everything matters because everything is interconnected. ...
I like to remind people that "antipsychotics" are really misnamed. They are a class of drugs called neuroleptics and quite often do not do anything at all to mitigate psychosis. They are major tranquilizers and neurotoxic drugs that harm and use should be minimized as much as possible. Brain shrinkage or not, it's clear that psych drugs, in general, can negatively impact the brain in numerous ways. … [click on title for the rest of the post]
Are elders living with forgetfulness, Alzheimer's, and dementia unreachable? Are there parallels with states called psychotic? Can meaning be found in the confusion of brain injury and coma? Stan Tomandl, MA, DiplPW and author of Coma Care & Palliative Work, and An Alzheimer's Surprise Party: Unveiling the Mystery, Inner Experience, and Gifts of Dementia, explores communicating with memory loss and how to make an end of life transition with dignity.
