Mental Health / Brain Health

I met Dr. Mel Litman when I was in a very dark place, debilitated by anxiety and panic attacks. I had been under the care of a couple of psychiatrists in my teens and was prescribed extremely addictive medications, unbeknownst to me, or my father. Sessions with the psychiatrists were uneventful, uninteresting conversations, and then the time would be up, and I would head out with another prescription held tightly in my hand.

The problem was that even while taking these prescribed medications, I was still paralysed in fear, and experiencing extreme panic attacks. I developed phobias, obsessive compulsive behaviours, and became terrified of being alone. And then my path crossed with Dr. Litman, by chance.

Words simply cannot explain how truly amazing Dr. Litman is, and the brilliant work that he does, spiritually, physically, mentally. Dr. Litman took me under his care, listened intently, enlightened me with incredible feedback and knowledge and graciously lifted what I thought was a life sentence of dread and fear, to a life with goals and freedom.

He was instrumental in getting me off of those incredibly addictive drugs. I was able to complete a B.A. in Psychology and obtain a professional and fulfilling career; I gave birth to two wonderful sons; and I got on airplanes and travelled. Phobias and OCD are no longer a part of my life.

Dr. Litman is the most committed, dedicated and knowledgeable doctor who continues to study and learn. I will remain forever grateful for his amazing insight and intelligence, his soft manner and carefully spoken words.

In writing this, I took a step back into my past which was not easy for me. It is truly miraculous to have the life I have today. I remember in the past waking up dreading the mornings and hating the weekends, being crippled in endless fear and panic attacks. Now I wake up and look forward to what I need to do that day, and truly embrace the freedom I have. I would not be here in this mindset without the expert knowledge and compassion I received from Dr. Mel Litman. And if I do come face to face with a panic attack, which happens from time to time, it no longer has the same hold on me. When I think back to that young, troubled, teenage girl who was lost, alone and afraid, I know for sure that she would never have thought that she could live a life like I do today.

This could not have been accomplished without Dr. Litman’s guidance, and I would never hesitate to recommend him to anyone, for physical or mental health issues. His knowledge on mineral and vitamin supplements has changed my life and my emotional state.

What Dr. Litman did, and does for me is too big to fit into this description. I met him when I was in the emotional and mental crisis of my life, during my last pregnancy.

So many factors of my life were coming to the surface in extreme ways in which I almost didn’t know who I was, and how I fit in. With a large family to take care of, I was overwhelmed, utterly confused, and panicked. I kept calling people in anguish trying to find help.

Finally, I had the choice to go the medical, mental hospital route - or to be treated by this brilliant, caring man whom I’d just met. I chose the latter. With patience and extreme ability to listen and understand, he undertook to teach and help me gain the tools and skills to integrate myself into the world.

My innate self began to mature and blossom. My now, much more confident persona was noticeable to others. With my growth, I was able to infuse these newly obtained strengths into my whole family. (With my BA in Psychology, he even helped me expand my knowledge by lending me a vast array of Psychology and related books. I even started doing Psychotherapy Counselling in my community.).

More than being an extraordinary healer of the body, mind and spirit, Dr. Litman has extra G-d given talents.

Palliative Care

In Sept. 2009, my father suffered a severe hemorrhage, and after several unsuccessful extubations eventually ended up in a semi-coma and in home hospice care. Because he had been previously diagnosed with a terminal illness, the doctors gave up not only on his recovery, but even on his regaining consciousness. Nevertheless, my brothers and I wanted to do everything possible to fulfil my father’s request, made while still conscious, to see his grandchildren one last time. So we turned to Dr. Litman for help, asking whether there was anything we could do. After a one-hour consultation, I had in hand a list of supplements that could be put into my father’s feeding tube.

After being on Dr. Litman’s supplement regimen for a month, my father began to wake up. After a week he was not only fully alert, he was accepted to a rehab center! The doctors were flat-out stunned by my father’s recovery, especially given his age – 81.

I have no doubt that the properly designed regimen of nutrients and supplements prescribed by Dr. Litman not only allowed my father to recover from the hemorrhage, but also helped him to maintain a good quality of life for as long as possible. My father was alert and functioning, able to interact with his children and grandchildren, right to the end – just as he had wanted.

It came to a point where I was ready to give up. I tried everything and even medication wasn’t helping. My mother told me about “Dr. Litman” and I didn’t give it much thought b/c everyone has their own school of thought, and they think they have the answer when most people don’t.

You know what, no one ever bothered to check my “physical makeup” and see if my “vitamin/sugar/hormone level” were at the right place. Then it hit me, how are people meant to function if we are not getting basic nutrients that our body needs? Sometimes you don’t have to go far for the answer.

Your health and serenity come before anything. “Dr. Litman” gave me the basic necessities that I was missing. This was the start of a new life of self awareness and taking care of my health. It led me to change my diet by cutting out white flour and sugar. I started exercising 3 times a week.

I started tapping into myself and what I really need to feel good and live optimally.

Dr. Litman you changed my life !!!

Dear Dr. Litman and Maya Litman,

We want to thank you for warmly receiving us in your home to treat my parents both physically and emotionally. Dr. Litman received us twice in his home on his free evening, and he used every possible means to help my parents.

Dr. Litman’s diagnosis was exactly right and the medications he prescribed made my parents “new people.” My mother, who suffers from diabetes, fully recovered from a chronic lesion on her leg, and internal infection. Her exhaustion completely disappeared and she now has her health back.

My father has epilepsy and has had a few strokes. He suffers from depression and suicidal thoughts. After a few months of treatment he is now feeling cheerful! He sings, laughs and is connecting with his surroundings. The treatment gave him an amazing recovery.

Both of my parents and I as well want to express our deepest gratitude to you.

We are happy for the opportunity for meeting you and wish you many years of success helping others.

Dear Doctor Mel Litman,

I just wanted to thank you for your amazing help with a family member who was going through a serious mood swing disorder, who was dysfunctional. The medications had horrible side affects . I never thought vitamins, minerals and nutrients, based on your guidance could actually bring a person to function normally and healthy without any medication or drugs. It was truly miraculous to see. Your caring and dedication for your patients means a lot, by looking at each person as an individual and not as a number.
May you blessed to continuing healing.

thank you again
