There's are two enormous paradoxes in healthcare that very few people have heard of, let alone practice:
1- The more you try to help, the less likely you are to be of help. This goes for family, friends and professionals alike.
2- Real help (the kind that actually makes a difference) can only ever be given/received indirectly, never directly.
So it's natural to want to help, but the process of 'What about this? Have you tried that?' rarely works. Real change (for the good, for greater health) appears naturally when you engage the most counter-intuitive attitude you could possibly imagine - complete acceptance. It's so counter-intuitive, and so hard to do, that you could meet a million people before you encounter one who can do it. And it's many hundreds of times more powerful than any drug or therapy you could imagine.
This is the essence of what it means to use love* to heal. There are a few researchers and practitioners who have done some very rigorous studies in this area. The real life results they get are so superior to anyone else that they tend to get ignored. That's fairly typical for outliers.
