I saw a Learning Channel show on the SST performed in the Geoffery Knight hospital in England.
Two of the three individuals had intractable bipolar disorder, and the other had major depression. They were all treated with SST, and the two with bipolar disorder responded dramatically. The one with depression had little effect.
However, for the two bipolar individuals, it was found with cat scans (or whatever) that caudate activity was way abnormal.
A lot of depression stems from the
"hell centers" of the brain being way too
overactive. SST drills two little holes in the
back of your head, stick two little rods deep into the brain, and makes tiny lesions in these areas which some docotors refer to as the "hell centers"Basically that part of the brain that works 24/7 to put a negative spin on everything that happens in your life.
