This review is from: Love Is Not Enough: The Treatment of Emotionally Disturbed Children (Paperback)
I don't think Bettelheim ruled out biochemistry in mental illness. Freud believed that biochemistry plays a big part, and one has to suppose Bettelheim did too. It's just that he was not interested in that aspect. That sort of thing is boring to me too. I want to know the meaning of the symptoms. Bettelheim provides that. What's more, if your child has a predisposition to mental illness, you should know it and be really careful not to do anything that triggers it or makes it worse. Nowadays they provide alternate birth centers to lessen the impact of the birth trauma. That was an idea suggested by psychoanalysis.
