In today’s episode, I discuss one of my clients, Jeremy (his pseudonym), a twenty-year-old man whom everyone thought was crazy because he had stopped speaking. Three psychiatrists had given him three different mental health diagnoses.
I didn’t approach him as someone with a “mental illness” because I don’t believe this pseudoscientific paradigm is useful. I saw him as a young man with a meaningful and purposeful process trying to come to his awareness. Over several months I was able to help him totally transform his problem.
Jeremy went through a powerful personal growth process in which his muteness and isolation transformed into inner strength, wisdom, and success in his life. He’s a great example of how we’re all beautifully ‘mad’ in our own way!
