In terms of fixing depression what is the difference between cognitive behavioral therapy, medication and Subconscious Restructuring® in terms of measurable documented effectiveness?

yes

If yes, explain the specific technologies, devices, drugs, or interventions you would like to see compared:

Importance

Describe why this topic is important.

The program process of Subconscious Restructuring® will eliminate the need to medicate children and significantly reduce the need to medicate adults with behavioral health issues.

What specifically motivated you to ask this question? (For example, you are developing a clinical guideline, working with a policy with large uncertainty about the appropriate approach, costly intervention, new research you have read, items in the media you may have seen, a clinical practice dilemma you know of, etc.)

Subconscious Restructuring® has 25 years of research, development and documented results. More people simply need to be made aware of it.

Does your question represent uncertainty for clinicians and/or policy-makers? (For example, variations in clinical care, controversy in what constitutes appropriate clinical care, or a policy decision.)

yes

If yes, please explain:

There are billions of dollars spent every year to make sure the severely broken model of CBT stays in place. This amount of money can buy the perception that something that is obviously broken is working.

Potential Impact

How will an answer to your research question be used or help inform decisions for you or your group?

It will allow for the continued development of a behavioral health modality that does not include ones best guess.

Describe the timeframe in which an answer to your question is needed.

2 days for initial results and then a long term follow-up.

Describe any health disparities, inequities, or impact on vulnerable populations your question applies to.

Children are the biggest issue in the behavioral health equation. To give a child a drug that will alter the brain chemistry in an attempt to control behavior is worse than appalling it is perverted.
