Steve Wilkos: Learn How To Treat ALL people properly

Steve Wilkos: Learn How To Treat ALL People Properly - Even Those You Talked To Like Trash Who In Reality ARE Hurting And Are In Need of Help.

Dear Steve,

You appear to be in over your head with your show. And, because you don't know what you don't know - you have no idea what I'm talking about.

I have extensive knowledge in dealing with people and you don't have a clue that you shouldn't embarrass the "bad" person. They will be far more responsive and more likely to admit they need help and seek it out. How would you like someone being so accusatory and have someone yelling in your face and belittling you.

 

The "bad" person is "bad" because of perhaps an inappropriate upbringing. These people, with therapy and care may be able to become better.

 

I wouldn't even listen to you if you were disrespecting me, yelling at me and throwing me off your stage. All this is more of what made them "bad" and it gives them further reason to be a "bad" person.

Why don't you read about psychology and human behavior and interaction.

 

Wouldn't you like to know you helped a "bad" person become a good person, boyfriend, husband or father - or a good person, girlfriend, wife or mother

 

Please consider what I have said.

 

Thank you,

Brookhaven Resort, TN, Cost $117,000

$117,000 - Cost of 90 Day Brookhaven Retreat in Tennessee

MONEY - MONEY - MONEY - MONEY - MONEY - MONEY!!!

 

I read on their website that you must have a 45 minute phone appointment with a doctor and therapist, at which time you are eligible to come and reeceive treatment for 90 days - of course after you wire them the $117,000 cost - $1300 a day.

 

Don't allow the euphoric high they bring you to in that 45 minutes of rush into signing on the line. A visit is a must not only because of the money, but more importantly it might not in actual terms meet your needs.

 

I had euphoria from speaking with a staff person on the phone, but my visit was frightening, intimidating, hurtful and all those awful things.

 

Consider and try this program for sure, but please make sure you don't feel pressured as I did. When I came there, they had my name on a sign on an observation room door - with the next step of me being in the program - of course only after I wired a major load of cash.

 

I will say that my husband and I went to check the Brookhaven Retreat (traveled 1800 miles round trip) and we have never received a follow up call, an e-mail and while we were there, we never filled out any personal information forms. And no phone conversation with the owner has been possible because she has been in a pertual meeting for five days - no matter what time of day.

 

(We decided to test the waters with regard to all this sweet care we were receiving at Brookhaven Retreat by holidng back on wiring our $117,000 and since we haven't sent the money, all that concern and care has evaporized completely.)

 

Everyone deserves the help they need. But being helped involves finding the right program for you - and there are many, many out there. And if this program proves right for you - that is awesome, but if not, 90 days will turn into an eternity and may leave you in debt for decades while they're taking in 1,117,000 (over a millions dollars every ten admissions.)

 

And once you sign up and start the program - even from an minute up to the end of the first month you want to quit the program, you are into this program for $39,000 (no possible refund for this money.) You will receive (from what I understand) $78,000 of the $117,000 you are required to pay before entering the program if you want to quit.

Ultimately, their care for you ends when you aren't able to wire the full payment of $117,000.

 

From someone who really does care - and not because of money. I write this for free. May you find the care that is truly for you.

 

(Disclaimer: I have no formal training or degree in medicine, psychology or any of the like. I just know when someone isn't treating me in a proper manner.)

While On Vacation In India, Girls Organs Allegedly Removed For Sale

 An eight-year-old girl lost her internal organs and her life while she and her family, from Britain, vacationed in India. It has not been confirmed, but it is believed those organs were sold - also known as illegal organ trafficking - illegal harvesting in human body parts for the purpose of illegal trade.

The girl had been treated for dehydration in India and according to the family, they were told that the organs were removed as part of the investigation into the cause of death. (It seems a little excessive to determine the cause of death through removal of all her internal organs.)

 While this case has been brought to the public eye, there are unknown, countless numbers of cases which have not been. Illicit organ trafficking is a multi-million dollar a year business. If we're ever going to stop this despicable practice, we need to learn about it as a society, country and world.

The problem, there is so much money involved that it is going to be difficult to break down these "businesses" that rob people, unknowingly and unwillingly of their lives through illicit organ trafficking.

It is a difficult topic that I am unraveling as a attempt to complete a senior/college paper on it.

I plan on writing more about this topic - perhaps after completion of the paper.

I have studied that it is important to be aware of your surroundings and suspicious of unsolicited help when traveling, especially in other countries. For example, if one looks confused in a train station in an unfamiliar country, you might attract an illegal organ procurement "employee" who seems so willing to help you find your way - and that way may end up being his way to an ally to remove your organs and leave your lifeless body. These "kind, helpful" type ultimately dehumanize you - don't see you as a person and coldly remove your organs. These procured organs to them are money - giving them the items of the greedy desires.

Obviously, we can't mistrust everyone when we travel, we just need to be more aware of not only the surroundings, but the people therein.

A Potential Money Pit?

My husband and and I don't understand why we have not received a note/email addressing our visit from Connecticut to Tennessee for the sole purpose of touring the Brookhaven Retreat. This lack of correspondence is highly unprofessional. There main concern appears to be purely and only about the money.  What do they do that is worth  $1300 a day? I don't know - even having visited there.

 

We were prepared to pay $234,000 for single room treatment for 90 days.  And because I wanted a private room - the norm is to share a room - I was going to have to pay $234,000 versus the sharing rate of $117,000 and they weren't able to show me a room . . . go figure.It seems like a lot of money to spend for a retreat that has not emailed us once . As  a business women, I thank people for coming across town to consider doing business with me. We travelled 900 miles and received no acknowledgement. Do they even get what proper business etiquette is, as it pertains to Brookhaven Retreat? A brief note takes literally a couple of minutes and it is meaningful and shows care about potential clients and that it is not just money. Someone may not come to this facility now (after a visit) but they may in the future. Hence the need for some kind of follow-up.

 

I was not told that a woman who was blocking me on the left side of my body, while blocking the door so I apparently wouldn't leave was a therapist in disguise - since she didn't introduce herself. I didn't learn of her status as a therapist until I was blocked (door shut) in an observation room. I was tricked. As someone who has no active emotional issues, mainly childhood PTSD fear with NO substance abuse problems, she had a legal obligation to identify her occupation to me. I came to visit from the perspetive of having fear and didn't need to be observed. I came for a visit with a MD and wasn't inclined to unnecessarily see a PhD.

 

The conduct of bringing this therapist into my visit was out-of-line and heavy handed, since at the last minutes of my visit I was told she was "my therapist." I wasn't even in the program yet and had not even decided to actually do the program. And when they took me to "my" observation room, there was a sign with my name on it already on the door - presumptuous indeed - personified.

 

It was in the observation room where we were asked on what day we were going to wire $234,000 and that we needed to act quickly as rooms were filling up.

 

I have the right not to reveal  anything regarding my mental issues to anyone including anyone at this facility. My behavior was professional and proper. Fortunately, I have these therapist all figured out and she didn't obtain any confidential information by her back door attempt.

 

And why were we told there were no men at this facility when the first person we met at the facility was a man is beyond me? I was assured there were no men before I journeyed 900 miles one way.

 

The apparent goal of Brookhaven Retreat is to get a minimum of $117,000 out of you and lure you into a program for which you receive a basic tour and know very little about the actual structure and how your own case will be handled. An example: This back door therapist I was tricked into dealing with should show what is really going to go on in this program - a lot of behind the back actions.

 

Unless your willing to be treated like you have mental illness, when just looking to polish a few skills, this isn't the place for you. The first thing you do is get treated like a rat under five days of observation to make sure you're not a threat. I personally refused that unnecessary procedure, as well as their heavy handed in-your-face approach to obtaining their "wired" money.

To Brookhaven Retreat: Take the sign down on the observattion door - the one with my name on it. Your kind of care is far, far too inapprpriate for me. I have columns to write - scholarly writing to complete advocacy work to do, work with my local veterans.
