Positive Psychology

Has anyone had experience of this approach?
@KeepSmyelin99

I’m not sure exactly what you mean... is this simply thinking positively or is this the name for a type of alternative therapy that I might not have heard of?

@JamesPlummer

My comment refers to the extent to which charities and the NHS seem to avoid the risk of pursuing treatments which are outside the mainstream. I have worked in the computer industry for many years and note that its attitude to risk is quite different, in fact they welcome risk as there can be no progress without thinking outside the box!. Clearly, that the IT environment is quite different in that there is no risk of death from trying out a new therapy.! The medical world is necessarily more conservative but MS sufferers are missing out on things like accupuncture and positive psychology which may offer useful treatments,
