Julia Rucklidge: 我进入心理健康领域是因为家庭成员在心理健康方面面临挑战,而传统治疗方法未能解决问题。我接受的传统教育认为,只有药物和/或心理疗法才能治疗严重的心理健康挑战,营养与心理健康治疗基本无关。但通过研究我发现,我们未能充分帮助足够多的人,太多人即使接受了所谓的“神奇”药物治疗仍然不健康。大众普遍认为药物治疗有效,当药物无效时,他们会责怪自己。人们常常认为一定是自己太糟糕了,以至于无法被修复,而不是认为治疗方法不够充分。如果反复看到人们不健康,就应该质疑这种模式是否有用。我希望有一天我们能醒悟过来,意识到以前的方法行不通,然后回到原点重新尝试。通过提供全方位的微量营养素,我们看到了人们情绪调节方面的显著改善。我绝对会首先尝试营养干预,即使是对于精神病或双相情感障碍的首次发作,也可以考虑将其作为一线治疗方法。服用抗精神病药物很难停药,而且会导致代谢综合征,所以最好从危害较小的东西开始。首先尝试更温和且具有其他益处的方法。总之,营养对于心理健康至关重要,我们应该挑战传统的药物治疗模式,探索更温和、更有效的治疗方法。
