THE Burris Life Coach has been the only Clinically Proven process for depression since 1992 and continues to be ignored by the very entities that are supposed to be responsible for the fix to this debilitating disorder.

The majority of people who suffer from depression have been so programmed with the use of medication that a process that actually fixes the problem at the source has been all but completely ignored. If you look up "clinically proven process for depression" on any search engine (be sure to include the quotes as this will eliminate the medication sites) you will only find a result from one source.

Depression is the primary symptom for almost all behavior disorders. Go to a psychiatrist or psychologist with symptoms of depression and you have just signed up for a prescription for an anti depression medication,A Clinically Proven Process for Depression Articles many of which are linked to suicide. Without question this is the most extreme example of attacking the body to try and change the mind. This is not to say that a prescription to an antidepressant should never be done. If there is a clinically proven process for depression does it make any sense to make this the first step.

In May 2007, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommended a new warning label for all antidepressant medications. The current "black box" label includes a warning about the increased risk of suicidal thinking and behavior in children and adolescents. The FDA wants to expand this warning to include young adults from ages 18 to 24. Children and young adults should also be monitored for the emergence of agitation, irritability, and unusual changes in behavior, as these symptoms can indicate the depression is getting worse. The risk of suicide is particularly great during the first one to two months of treatment. When there is a clinically proven process that addresses depression at the source does it make any sense to prescribe medication as a first step?

Everyone can agree that your health and well-being is dependent on your doctor's expertise, so it's important to choose the physician, psychologist or psychiatrist who is best qualified. In regard to your mental health what does best qualified mean? In terms of the only clinically proven process for depression it means beginning with an answer to the most fundamental question about the state of depression or any emotional state and that is: "What brings about an emotional state and or behavior?" If your physician, psychologist or psychiatrist cannot answer this question how qualified are they? The answer is simple. If they cannot answer this question they are guessing, this is why medication for depression is so widely prescribed. The reality is there is not a physician, psychologist or psychiatrist who can answer this question because none of these groups even asks the question. You simply cannot fix it if you do not know how it works and you do not know how it works if you cannot answer the question.

There is complacency if not outright resistance within the community of psychology toward this clinically proven process. The first study of this process in 1992 has had virtually no impact on how depression was treated then or now. The medical and mental health communities have all but ignored it and continue with dispersing medication with a seemingly high tolerance if not acceptance toward people who commit suicide while depressed or while on depression medication.

The most disturbing suicide statistics of late are the average of eighteen military personnel who are committing suicide every day as reported by NBC on December 13, 2007. NBC also reported that 20% of active duty soldiers are reporting serious mental health problems including depression and post traumatic stress. All the while the medical and mental health communities are content with not even posing the question that will lead to a resolution to this problem and that is: "What brings about an emotional state or what determines human behavior?"

Question 15 of the clinical study was: Do you have thoughts that life is not worth living and you would be better off dead? There was a 95.7 percent improvement in regard to this question and no one was prescreened for depression before the study.

The hope here is that people who have a friend, relative, child or know someone in the military who can be helped by the only clinically proven process for depression will now take action on their own.
