I was in Miejer today and I stumbled upon a new book by Kevin Trudeau. I was looking through it. I got to a part where he was finally going to reveal the secrets for improving health. As I was browsing through, this is what appeared before my eyes: "Stay away from Psychiatrists and Psychologists". then it listed some references (very few...don't remember them). There was no explanation why he believed this. I understand that some psychologists can do more harm than good, but to make a blanket statement like that is rediculous. Anyone else agree? Ok, maybe I am sounding defensive. Maybe he did explain it later in the book, but I'm not about to buy it just to see. Some people are very fortunate to have psychologists--when they are good ones.

Sorry, but this man has been all but censored for his false claims. It is not a secret that he doesn't even tell the "secrets" in the book... when he was prevented from making the claims about all the remedies he supposedly had (not) then he gets someone else to make them, and to make the main business selling the book. He is a class act con artist, imo.

He tells many tid bits in his book and the rest comes from his site. Is no different than any other person that I have seen except he has proven many things that I have already heard over the years and did not want to believe.
There is very few out there willing to give truely absolute free info. Think about it.

I appreciate your thoughts. I find it safest for me to not listen to anyone who, along with truth, sows negativity and untruths. How much poison would you allow in your drinking glass? It's a matter of trust, again, imo. If I can't trust everything I know and hear, I can't trust anything I hear from him.

Isn't that also the way with therapy? How many sessions do we have to hear the truth, over and over, in any way, in all things...before we can trust enough to share our truth? And if we find one item that concerns us with the doctor, doesn't it cause us to pause?
