Every time anyone else finds out about a new depression treatment or they try something else that lifts their mood, even though they don’t actually suffer from depression but just feel down once a month or so, which is actually perfectly normal and should be taken as life itself, they tell me about it like it’s some revolution that I should try.  Quite frankly, I have to say I’m quite happy and satisfied with the treatment I have now.  I’ve been through some bad ones yes, but it takes about 5-8 or something like that different treatments before you find something that actually works optimally speaking.  But the most recent one I’ve been told about is Biofeedback.  Now personally, I don’t care to go pay $150 for a treatment that gives you a temporary high and then goes down after a while, and all the while they promise it will permanently fix you if you just go back for enough treatments.  Plus the whole experience of a high isn’t necessarily a good thing in every case, just a thought.  But basically, it is a non-medical profess that measures your blood pressure, heart rate, skin temperature, sweat glands, and muscle tension conveying the information to you in real time.  This supposedly raises your awareness, and therefore it balances out your brain or something like that.  It was first created in the 1960’s, but maybe partly because of the price, its popularity has seriously waned.  But it’s returned to popularity recently.  Frankly, as far as its scientific applications, I really couldn’t say for sure.  But as far as what I’ve seen from the multiple people who continue to bug me about it now, it’s not encouraging.  They go through the temporary highs and then the lows, and frankly to me it looks a lot like bipolar disorder.
