Treating other
Patients
Part
3
One great reason for the failure of the medical
treatment in such a large percentage of cases is that medical men have badly
neglected the mental aspect of diseases. It is a proved fact that more than 50%
of the trouble of the patients are of mental origin. Medical men who are also
versed in psychological science have fully realized this now. For instance read
the report of the American Psychiatric Association which states:-
Mind may not only cause
the symptoms of physical diseases but bring about actual changes in the tissues
of various organs and glands. Statistics of our clients reveal that for about
50% of the cases that come in for diagnosis with complaints of physical disease
but no symptom of such disease can be found by the most careful examination
possible.
Such diseases that are of
mental origin can never be cured by drugs. Right treatment for them is mental
suggestions and psycho- analysis. That is secret of the success of mental
treatment.
Above we have described
the method for the treatment of disease. But other defects and bad habits also
can be similarly removed. For instance, stammering is found to be especially
amenable to suggestive treatment. Grown up people who suffered from this vocal
defect from their infancy have been made all right in a few sittings.
Except in a few cases,
stammering is generally functional and acquired. (Functional means the vocal
organ are quite all right but simply they do not function properly they falter
due to some external causes. Acquired means not inherited from birth). The
stammers are always nervous and sensitive persons and they stammer because they
are so. How this happens can be illustrated by another phenomenon. Those who
are sensitive and nervous must have noticed that if they are writing, typing or
doing some other such work requiring skills and some stranger or superior
person begins to watch them; their work is marred and spoilt. Their hand begins
to falter and the writing is irregular and faulty. The same thing happens in
the case of speech. Their vocal organ begins to falter and speech grows faulty-
they stammer. Most stammers would tell you that when they are alone and reading
loudly or speaking with small children their speech is perfect, but they begin
to stammer when they speak with elder people, especially with strangers and superiors.
So obviously their defect is due to nervousness and there is nothing wrong with
their vocal organs. Many of the stammers develop this defect after long years
of normal speech, some of them by imitating other stammers and making fun of
them.
The same weakness of
personality, nervousness which causes this defect also aggravates it. When
these people find themselves stammering they, being of sensitive nature, begin
to worry within themselves. The more anxiety they feel the more attention is
fixed on the defect and the worse it grows, until it becomes a constant habit
with them. They begin to move in a vicious cycle. The more they worry the more
they stammer, and the more they stammer the more they worry. Many of these
people write, you can never feel it as I do. You can never realized how much
handicapped I am on account of this defect the main obstacle in the way of my
success in life. But for this wretched defect I would have achieved greater
things in my life. This shows the intensity of their feeling- oh! Only if I did
not stammer! Of course the handicap is real and great, but its realized only
aggravates matters if the sufferer begins to worry.
So if you stammer give up
this feeling and relieve your mind this tension. Say to yourself:-
(I do not mind this
stammering. It is nothing so serious). When you have cultivated this attitude
which will take some time, you would feel a marked improvement in your speech.
When your mental tension is thus relieved you may practice self help
suggestion. This stammering is going off by itself. Now I have realized the
vicious circle I was in. I was making myself miserable simply by worrying about
this matter. The more I felt the more I worried. Now I have realized my
mistake. Now I have stopped feeding it with worry and so it is dying its
natural death, and I can speak naturally and faultlessly without any effort on
my part. It is just growing natural with me to speak flawlessly and correctly.
Day by day I am speaking better and better. My speech is improving day by day, and
so on.
