Schizophrenia, there is a "switch" in the person, and when it is turned on, schizophrenia is normal.
In "Medical Forest Correction of Mistakes", it is said: "The disease of madness is the stagnation of qi and blood in the brain, and the qi is not connected with the internal organs, just like a dream." Therefore, the imbalance of yin and yang, emotional depression, phlegm dampness, phlegm and fire internal disturbance, and qi and blood coagulation are the main pathogenesis of madness.
Ms. Sun, 30 years old, has been schizophrenic for 5 years. Insomnia, dreaming and waking up easily, visual and auditory hallucinations, talking to oneself, confused thinking, poor analytical skills, memory loss, constipation, yellow urine. When he came to the clinic, his expression was sluggish, his expression was indifferent, his tongue was red, yellow and greasy, and his pulse was slippery.
Syndrome differentiation: phlegm stagnation schizophrenia.
Treatment: relieve depression and phlegm, open the body and awaken the mind, strengthen the spleen and promote dampness, invigorate blood and remove stasis
Composition: Rehmannia rehmannia, Ophiopogon vulgaris, Radix Radix, Radix Radix, Radix, Radix
After taking 5 doses, the mood began to stabilize, the language decreased, and the sleep increased; after taking the 15 doses, the psychiatric symptoms disappeared, no more visual and auditory hallucinations, and the person was able to fall asleep at night, and the emotional response was more active than before, and the person seemed to be much more energetic; he was advised to take another 15 doses to consolidate the treatment, and he has returned to normal life. After one year of follow-up, there was no recurrence.
What is the rationale for this?
The root cause of schizophrenia lies in the fact that there are three places that are not connected, the liver is lost and discharged, the depression is depressed and cannot be vented, and the phlegm is disturbed, resulting in the excitation and dysfunction of the cerebral cortex.
1. No stool
The stool is blocked, the intestines are difficult to reduce, and the intestines are hot and dry. The internal heat is held in the body and suffocates people, so most patients with schizophrenia have constipation.
2. Liver stagnation leads to spleen deficiency and phlegm, so phlegm and fire are intertwined in the body and cannot be discharged, so it can only be held in the chest and blinded the heart. Therefore, patients with sperm will be restless, cranky, and will also feel chest tightness and palpitations.
3. Brain tricks are not clear, phlegm and heat are disturbed, and the brain is blinded, so patients with fine scores will have dizziness, swelling, confusion, auditory and visual hallucinations, etc.
So, in response to these problems, how can Chinese medicine turn on the "switch"?
Step 1: Laxative and heat discharge, the stool is cleared, and the heat in the body has a place to leak out;
Step 2: Drain the liver and regulate qi, dissolve phlegm and remove fire, and regulate the patient's liver and spleen;
Step 3: Wake up the mind, calm the mind, and let the patient be awake and calm.
Then the person returned to normal.
