Dr. Bergman has an excellent video explaining the importance of thought in treating disease. If you buy into the theory that you have to be sick the rest of your life you will be sick the rest of your life. If you really believe you can get better you will get better. Belief is an important part of healing. Medical world will tell you there is no help. Take the drugs and we will make you comfortable until you die. Get the information, do the right things and believe you can get better. You will get better.

I actually watched the entire video. I like his advice at the end where he recommends listing 100 things to do.
