Google Ashton Manual and read it.

Thanks, but I am trying to save lives here. I wish you all happiness, healthiness, and above all, true sobriety.
Are you a psychiatrist, psychologist, MD, or just a layperson with an opinion. Facts are things that can be proven not just a persons experience and opinion. What you consider a 'fact" is obviously just your opinion and possibly that of the book you preach about. That does not make it a true fact. It is "facts" like yours that cause people to not seek treatment or stop treating their mental illness'. A chemical imbalance can not be cured by simply meditating. You obviously have no clue what a chemical imbalance is and how it relates to severe anxiety. The chemical imbalance is not my opinion, theory, or "fact". It is a medically documented fact. I respect your right to your opinion but please stop trying to pass it off as the only way and as a fact. It is your experience and opinion but that does not mean that it is going to be everyone's experience or opinion.

I too am trying to save lives as well and know from experience that your opinion can be deadly. Best of luck to you.
