Surgery for this sort of thing is impossibility!. The brain is too small, and there's no way to alter gene expression using sharp implements!. Maybe some sci-fi nanotech virus thing will come along in a decade or so

The relationship between conciousness, personality, and the physical hardware of the brain is a murky area that a lot of people are not comfortable in!. Your average person is distinctly uncomfortable with the idea that their personality, their behavior and thinking are affected by the purely physical, biological action of an organ in their body!. Because of this, I feel, a lot of the stigma against mental illness shows up!. The idea that free will isn't totally free, and has at some point anchoring and requirements on the crude chemical behavior of an organ is something that your average person is not comfortable with at all, regardless of how true it may be!. And for the most part, all the Axis I mental illnesses have some sort of physical dysfunction in the brain - why it's there, and how it's there are questions we can't completely answer yet!.

'Chemical imbalance' is a way to explain the physical aspects of mental illness to people without a rather significant background in medicine and biology!. The actual picture is much more complex than that, and involves alterations in gene expression, cell activity, production of various signaling chemicals, cell death in inappropriate places, intra-neuron connections and god only knows what else!. It's a horribly complex picture that's part of an even more horribly complex machine that we're still working to get a grasp on - slowly, but steadily!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Some mental ilnesses can only be treated really through psychotherapy, so no, it's not physical!. You do have some physical side affects of the illness however!. Like not all people are depressed because of a chemical imbalance!. It could be a life changing event or stress!. It's more of a psychological behavior!. People who have personality disorders, it has nothing really to do with anything physical, it's all mental!. They offer treatment to help with the physical symptoms, however some medications will not help because it's not an imbalance!. I was on 200 mg of zoloft for depression !.75 mg of risperdal for my severe anxiety, and !.25 mg clonidine for my insomnia but the zoloft didn't help at all!. I was still severely depressed!. They had changed my prescriptions and put me on 5 different meds for depression and none of them worked!. So that there proves my theory that it's not always a chemical imbalance and it doesn't help everyone!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

you got the wrong meaning of physical!. your thinking of physical as in existing!. now when people talk about health its usually either physical or mental!. in that case physical means any part of your body except the brain!. mental is only the brain!. and i think they already have done surgeries to improve chemical balance, but its kind of new so its probably dangerous!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Everything that affects the brain affects the body also!.The brain is usually the first place where the symptoms are clearly visible because it is the highest need for energy of all the vital organs since it is the most important organ in the body!.The body always lack in everything in comparison with the brain!.Even with showing the symptoms of a disease!.If you do not see the symptoms does not mean they do not exist!.

Just because the mind shows the symptoms does not mean the body does not have them also!.

For freakin sake!.Mental and physical diseases are caused by vitamin,mineral,omega 3 deficiency and excess of refined sugar,refined salt and omega 6 fatty acids that most of humanity has!.

If you ate natural food that are rich with vitamins,minerals and omega 3 daily your health would improve significantly in a very short time!.You would cure many of your physical and mental diseases permanently!.The diseases would have a very low chance of resurfacing again if your body continues to receive what it needs!.

The cure already EXISTS!.The cure to EVERY disease!.The problem is corporate brainwashing that brainwashed the doctors and ordinary people into believing that only drugs can cure their illnesses and most people think since they are doctors they must know best!.They are wrong!.They have the disease of greed and selfishness and stupidity just like most of humanity!.The difference is that their diseases are at a earlier stage!.Most of them care only about getting payed by the pharmaceutical companies for prescribing drugs for their patients!.
