Psychodynamics and functional medicine
• Some therapists stand out as uniquely effective.
• Academics are no better.
• “Every potential therapist must have a floor and a ceiling to his therapeutic capacity.”
• Some gifted therapists are able to say why they succeed; others can’t explain it. “A great deal of what they do ‘right’ is intuitive.”
“On Being Therapeutic” - Stanley Greben, MD [Canadian Psychiatric Association Journal. Vol. 22(1977) 371-380].

Psychodynamics 101
• Patients can be vexing.• Diagnostic impasses provoke narcissistic angst.• Frustrated clinicians do not relate well with
patients.• The more tools and capabilities one has, the
greater the freedom, the options, and the ability to positively impact the patient.
• The greater the success, the better the patient feels, the doctor feels, and the doctor-patient relationship feels.
• The converse, worrisomely, also exists.
![Page 8: The physician in spite of himself syllabus 09 22 2013](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062320/559029f31a28ab2b718b45df/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

“Joey” – the medical and legal train wreck – from e-mail May 31, 2012
Dear Dr. Cady:A week ago Tuesday the Department of Child Services (DCS) removed my son from our home. It was reported that I administered what was deemed “holistic” care to my child. Under the direction of Dr. XXX XXXX, MD my son receives medications, supplements, IV treatments, and mild hyperbaric oxygen. I happen to have my master’s in nursing. In my background I have a year’s work experience in administering IV nutrients and chelation at 2 specialty clinics

Integrating functional medicine techniques
• Don’t blame the child, the parents, or the adult patient.• If you do not KNOW it’s not a biological, physical problem,
then you simply don’t know. PERIOD.• It’s most likely not a “Risperdal deficiency.” • It’s not an “Axis II” issue unless you have DEFINITIVELY
RULED OUT a biological problem.• Test test test test test. You can’t tell by “looking.”
– FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE TESTING in difficult cases.
• Recognize the importance of DIET.• Appropriate – not excessive – use of supplements and
interventions.– Be able to explain each one. (“The Peter Lynch rule.”)

Key take-aways from this case
• Don’t let a substance abuse disorder give you a constricted field of logic. – DO NOT NEGLECT THE MEDICAL!!!
• Affective disorders and ADHD can coexist. • Frequently ADHD’ers have used illegal drugs
or tried their kid’s stimulant. • Avoid Puritanical blame/self-righteousness:
– Many ADHD’ers (and affective disorder patients) fall into alcohol, marijuana, and other drugs in an attempt to self-treat
• Treat the primary problem first.

Teachable points for this case• It’s not about the “age management” ideas.• It’s about LISTENING to the patient.• OPTIMIZE the biological platform• Refer or consult if you don’t know, but don’t
“wimp out” and push the “delete” or “eject” button on patient concerns. – Don’t say, “it’s not my department; I don’t know
about that.”
• If the patient expresses it, it’s a problem. • The body affects the mind and the thoughts.

Things to consider / action items:
• You must adapt; medicine is changing.– Internet and wide information distribution– Health care expenditures out of control– New paradigms of nutrient insufficiency and
environmental toxins– There are no new “magic bullets.”
• You don’t have to know it all and do it all... But you must be willing to ACKNOWLEDGE and REFER.
![Page 109: The physician in spite of himself syllabus 09 22 2013](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062320/559029f31a28ab2b718b45df/html5/thumbnails/109.jpg)
Things to consider / action items:
• Do not consider outside diagnoses as indisputable. EVERYTHING is “up for grabs” until proven.
• Integration of functional medicine is like learning to walk – “You do it UNTIL.”
• Humble your ego, admit your ignorance, and ask questions.
• Remain intellectually open and playful.

It has become necessary to develop medicine as a cooperative science; the clinician, the specialist, and the laboratory workers uniting for the good of the patient, each assisting in elucidation of the problem at hand, and each dependent upon the other for support. Truth is a constant variable.” – William Mayo, MD. “Dr. Will” - 1910

“For me, the practice of medicine has opened the door to the greatest adventure in life. Medicine is like a hallway lined with doors, each door opening into a different room, and each room openinginto another hallway, again lined with doors. Medicine is always wonderful and never will be finished.”- Charles H. Mayo, M.D.
