That is a simply gorgeous bird. I have a parrot Senegal. Thing has an attitude problem but is a good bird none the less.

Anyways to your response. Although I do value your opinion, I do have to question the thinking process that these people are going through to obtain the change. Society is geared towards one line of thinking, linear thinking. And cyclical tendencies are almost impossible to change, because of the way our nervous system is programed to society. A life change will take a different way of looking at the world, and it’s sad to say that most if not near all won’t be able to change their thinking patterns. Its simply too different for them. But I am almost sure that if it can be self induced then it can be undone.

I myself beat AS syndrome through my weird theories. I also beat ADHD. You wouldn’t even realize the crap I had to put myself through to develop emotion. And I had to go through it again with ADHD. I literally had to sit myself down and make myself do other things that I liked to develop my attention span and it changed with training and practice. I had to put my mind through mass stimulation to develop my emotion side using not prescribed drugs but street drugs like ecstasy, 15 pills in a weekend, I was constantly high just producing as much serotonin as I could to enhance my grey area. Call me nuts or whatever, but by jump starting my emotional side which I predicted would work allowed me to begin talking to people, adapting to the situations around me instead of hiding from it. And I slowly learned that I could beat it. My mind changed allowing me to experience empathy; I started dreaming regularly, I never did before, ever. I advocate drug use if it is trying to create a change, not suppress it like antipsychotics do as the mind is trying to rebound on its own, however antipsychotics just prolong the effects by not allowing the natural release to take place. However with things like schizophrenia, I am 99% sure it is due to the things people value and the lifestyle they lead. It’s self induced and if you don’t change that lifestyle then nothing is going to change. Ever. That’s just the way I feel about it. And I have studied the symptoms enough to know what to look for and why they begin to appear.

All in all it begins with thinking patterns. Sleep is a very good remedy to schizophrenia as it drains the mind of ideas. I have many writings including dreams among many other things, which I can almost be sure of.
