Something to think about then veiled... maybe help everyone along.

We as individuals have a unique and constantly changing mental image of ourselves. This changes pretty much daily, even multiple times throughout a day depending on what is going on within our lives.

What is the biggest problem healing trauma? Finding our true emotions to what we feel from suffering.

How is trauma healed? The only way to heal trauma is by healing the emotions we feel in regard to that trauma.

What is mental imagery? Mental imagery is a process where the individual actually outlines their current emotional state, and based on thousands of patients criteria taken over a decade+, there are known unique colours, textures, patterns, objects, etc etc... a persons unique emotional state at that time can be isolated to depict their exact emotional issues. Basically what I am saying, is that you no longer have a physician trying to find your emotional state, because with mental imagery, you actually provide it within a specific drawing answering certain known factors.

Our mind whilst not being capable to remember all words, conversations, etc etc throughout our life, from birth, does remember images. Our mind takes constant snapshots of life itself. Within those snapshots contain our emotional state at that time, believe it or not, but our brain keeps it all. The problem is, is if asked to try and access it, or decipher the image to find your emotions, you couldn't do it for pretty much most of your life. Now what if our true emotional problems are sitting in all these snapshots that we cannot access? Which pretty much is what happens by the way. So if we cannot access the information from the images, we can still see certain things at any one time, being an image in which we translate from our snapshots onto paper with certain give criteria. This image will change from day to day, as you feel different things, but just don't know exactly what they are.

Basically, mental imagery is not about curing PTSD, because we know that can't be done just yet. What it does though, is it speeds up the process in which we heal, because by knowing exactly what emotions we feel at any one time, we can deal with those emotions from our known techniques that are now theory, and used as the basic learning models around the world.

Instead of healing PTSD over a year or more, what if a person could heal emotional states for the most part within a week / month then move onto the next major emotional state? What takes us the longest to work out? To find our emotions then learn how to deal with them. What happens to us once we have dealt with the most major of trauma (emotions)? The rest seem like small fry, thus we use what we learnt and apply to those as well. What if a more efficient, productive and accurate method could simply tell you your current emotional state at any given time? Instead of looking for what we feel, and trying to understand it, in mental imagery you are given what you feel from your input, and understanding that goes with it to a degree. So we as the sufferers are only left with a smaller portion of the job in which to heal a trauma, instead of taking so long in order to do it.

That means that if this process can be rapidly sped up, this means we can take healing time to much faster rates, which means instead of people dwelling around, being unemployed for a decade or so, people can heal trauma and get back into life very quickly. Obviously we must learn how to manage PTSD itself still, but that is nothing if we have healed our trauma at such a rapid rate.
