Recently started volunteering at a brain injury center and was surprised at the number of people with brain injury and a concurrent mental illness. Several individuals have expressed to me that their MRI and CT scans showed little or no evidence of a traumatic brain injury but before there accidents they had no symptoms ranging from emmotional outbursts to psychosis to severe depression.

 

So the question is sice modern science shows no evidence of brain injury but the psychiatric portion of medical science supports the theory........who is right? Did the injury cause the mental illness?

 

perhaps this should be in a different area of the forum but if the scans showed little or no evidence of brain injury did the injury still occur?

Apart from the fact that the actual trauma may cause structural brain damage which (somehow) leads to mental problems, the stress of the trauma alone may have significant effects on the mind. Infact, any trauma (in any part of the body), including operations may trigger depression, anxiety, mania etc.

No evidence being found doesn't mean no evidence in fact. The reality is that current brain scan technologies are still very low resolution in time and space. The true evidence may be too detailed to be detected.

In this case, we should trust the clinical psychologist more than the brain scanner.

This speaks a lot .

 

The cases of so called Spirit Possession Syndrome (SPS) share the symptoms with DID / MPD .

 

While DID is often attributed to Childhood Trauma , SPS is always greeted with Skepticism , even ridiculed . What if there is some unknown physical evidence to the Non Scientific explanations regarding Discarnate enitites ?

The mental health problems including a mental illness or a mental disorder. Undiagnosed and untreated mental health problems can create more difficulties .
