The Kuriki method (the first edition in 2007) is a theory about Tourette’s syndrome (tic disorder) and obsessive-compulsive disorder to cure these diseases without medication. This theory is based on the author’s inference and interpretation regarding the structure of these diseases. Since it has been written for the psychoanalysts, reading will be difficult for people in general and it might be sometimes read erroneously. Therefore the Kuriki method must presuppose that the patient is treated by a nearby psychoanalyst, and that, between the patient and the Kuriki method, there is always the psychoanalyst. The explosion of emotional catharsis, which has strong repercussions, is done only for three seconds, once a week: beyond this rhythm, it would be an accident caused by negligence, and the psychoanalyst who is inexperienced in emotional catharsis must take responsibility for the temporary mental collapse caused by the accident. Also, to the patient who has weak capacity of logical reasoning, the psychoanalyst must explain well on the violent emotion of revenge caused by the illusory confusion between the person of the traumatic image in his head and the person in the real world.
Cure for Tourette’s syndrome (tic disorder) and OCD without medication
§41
Amplification in tic disorder and phobia.
If I say that tic looks like phobia, patients with tic will say that they have never been afraid of tic. But It is necessary to understand that the « compulsive intramuscular sensation » of tic disorder and phobia are made ??with the amplification of the concentration on the object of the Conscious in the Conscious. For both diseases, the Conscious on a change of bodily sensation becomes the cause of this change: the effect becomes the cause. This vicious circle results an amplification of this bodily sensation. As the change of a bodily sensation is a bodily perception, it is a conflict between the Conscious and the body in the Conscious. It is a state where the body betrays the Conscious and dominates the Conscious in the Conscious. A phobia has two triggers. The first trigger is a thing (or a situation) as object of the Conscious, such as a spider. And the object of the Conscious as the second trigger is an abnormal bodily sensation by the adrenaline effects. Fear of the second trigger amplifies itself as fear of bodily fear. In other words, panic is an amplification of bodily panic due to fear of a bodily panic. In tic disorder, the first object of the Conscious is the sensation of concentration on a point in the body. The second object of the Conscious is the amplification of disagreeable sensation of the bodily compulsion.
Neurosis is a state of the Conscious that is oriented by the mechanism of the pathological repression. The Conscious is more strongly oriented by the amplification of the « compulsive intramuscular sensation », i.e., the amplification of the object of recursive repression. As Absolute Compulsion is a part of the structure of neurosis, Compulsion Absolute can not be an object of perception for patients with neurosis. The object of perception of patients as symptom is a bodily sensation. This amplification is a symptom of the disease. In a healthy state of mind, there is no amplification of the concentration of the Conscious on a bodily sensation.
Recursive amplification of the « compulsive intramuscular sensation » in the upper layer of tic disorder.
By analogy: when there is something you do want to watch, suppose that you have a mechanism of repression to look at the picture that has been hanging on the wall on your left side. Now, on the desk, there is a small spider, that you do not want to watch, so you look at the picture on the wall on your left side. But, unfortunately, this picture is also a drawing of a spider. You do not want to look at this drawing. But as the mechanism of not to look at something you do not want to look at is to look at the painting on the wall on your left side, your view will be oriented more strongly towards this drawing.

First, a very small stimulus appears on a point of the body, then the Conscious will be oriented towards this point and will amplify itself. Every « compulsive intramuscular sensation » is a recursive sensation in its amplification. A bodily sensation as an object of repression and a bodily sensation as a means of repression are there on the same point on the body. By a bodily act of the movement of tic, the Conscious goes out of the amplification of the « compulsive intramuscular sensation ». The amplification of fear of a phobia will be resolved en getting out of the place.
It is important to recognize that the « compulsive intramuscular sensation » and the fear of phobia are both bodily sensations. In fact, these bodily sensations are very weak, but perceived being extremely enlarged by the structure of amplification in the Conscious. Patients are forced to get out of the tunnel of these enlarged disagreeable bodily sensations.
Phobia and panic attack
I wrote a page on a classical treatment of panic attack and phobia.
The function of repression in good health is the foundation of the healthy activity of the Conscious. The loop of hysteria occurs when bodily sensations are involved in the function of repression. A loop is a circular system of repeating, in which the product of a round provokes another round. The bodily element of the repressed image will provoke a bodily mechanism of repression of bodily sensations. Repression is one of the main mental functions, and the loop of hysteria exceeds robustly the Conscious. The loop of hysteria increases its rotation speed and stabilizes itself, just like a spinning top. Stability in a bad sense of the word. When the mental activity is in equilibrium with the stability of the loop of hysteria, hysteria will be chronic. Repression is a mechanical function in the Unconscious. There is a direct relationship between the nerves of bodily sensations and the mental emotion, and when a repressed emotion manifests itself in a bodily way, outside the Conscious, this bodily sensation will not be able to be understood by the Conscious. The Kuriki method is the theory of KV, that is to say, the theory of the bodily repression. The theory of the mechanism of repression that involves bodily sensations. The objects of repression in the upper layer of tic disorder are indefinite sensations and primitive sensations, and they amplify themselves recursively.
There are people who have bodily sensations that are hypersensitive with the activity of the Unconscious. Part of these people can be included in ADHD and autism spectrum disorders with many individual differences. There are people who have neurosis, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder and Tourette’s syndrome, also panic disorder, etc. A special feeling of ASMR is also possible.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder can be considered as a phobia, but at the same time, panic disorder can be considered as an obsessive-compulsive disorder. In general, a neurosis has bodily symptoms; the manifestation of a bodily sensation provokes a compulsive amplification, and necessarily the act of a voluntary movement will be the exit of the Absolute Compulsion. Neurosis without bodily act does not exist. In tic disorder, the disagreeable bodily sensation of the « compulsive intramuscular sensation » in voluntary muscle provokes a compulsive amplification, and a tic movement will be the exit of the Absolute Compulsion. In obsessive-compulsive disorder, the bodily sensation of anxiety, which is usually a specific cutaneous sensation of obsessive-compulsive disorder, provokes an compulsive amplification, and the act of compulsion will be the exit of the Absolute Compulsion. In a panic attack, the sensation of adrenaline provokes a compulsive amplification, and the act of getting out of the place will be the exit of the Absolute Compulsion. It is not that the fear of a trigger grows up and becomes a panic disorder, but first the patient has a disease, which is called panic disorder, and this disease chooses a trigger. If a thing or a situation is the trigger A and the adrenaline sensation is the trigger B, the direct trigger of a panic attack is the trigger B. The trigger A is only a trigger of the trigger B. The trigger B is a bodily sensation, and the Conscious of the patient will be forced to get out of the place by the compulsive amplification of this bodily sensation. As the patient does not distinguish the trigger A and the trigger B, he considers that the fear of the trigger A amplifies itself. The patient can not see the Absolute Compulsion. The patient does not see that first he has a disease called panic disorder, and that the rationalization chooses a trigger that is personally justified as an object of fear in the structure of neurosis. It is not that he has had a panic attack first and then the fear of the panic attack becomes a panic disorder. The patient had had the disease of panic disorder, and that is why he had the first panic attack. Once the structure of panic attack was ready, the first attack was possible.
Why often the patients with panic disorder cannot get on crowded trains (or crowded buses, etc.)?
In a rationalization, avoiding of crowded trains will be justified by reasons such as the difficulty to get off, narrowness, elevated temperature, possibility of nausea, etc., but these are only a trigger A, i. e., a trigger that causes the trigger B. It is not that the fear of crowded train caused the first panic attack and it made a panic disorder of crowded train, but the patient has neurosis, and neurosis manifests itself as a panic disorder, and the rationalization chose the crowded train as a trigger A. The trigger B is a specific sensation and amplifies itself compulsively. The patient cannot understand this, as the Absolute Compulsion is invisible to him. The rationalization arbitrarily chooses a trigger A with some legitimacy, and that trigger A has no important significance. Just a feeling of trapped animal is sufficient for the rationalization to justify the legitimacy. Many patients have a trigger A of crowded train, but empty train can be a trigger A for some patients too. The disease of panic disorder adopts arbitrarily a trigger A, if it has personal legitimacy for the patient as a trigger A. The actual trigger of panic attack is the trigger B, and if the thought of the possibility of an occurrence of trigger B is a trigger A, panic attack is possible at any time. The trigger B will be a trigger of the trigger B. As there is only one trigger B, the trigger B amplifies itself in a cycle, with the object of the Conscious, which is the bodily act of getting out of the place, under the Absolute Compulsion. The patient is a patient also at the time of normal mental state: the disease is not only while he has a panic attack; sensation of adrenaline, compulsive amplification, getting out of the place, etc. Myopic is not only when he looks at the blackboard, but he is myopic also when he does not look at the blackboard. Having panic disorder of crowded train does not mean that the patient does not have panic disorder in the house. An apparent panic disorder is part of latent panic disorder, which will be cured with an understanding of the structure of this disease. An understanding at the level where panic disorder and panic attack are the same thing and where the structure of panic disorder arbitrarily chooses a trigger A. Just as a patient with onychophagia (impulse control disorder) would think each time; “Because there is no nail clippers here.”, a trigger A has no pathogenic significance. It is only a legitimacy that is easily justified as a trigger A. The possibility of a nausea is only a legitimacy so that crowded train would be a trigger A. It is not the reason why the patient has a disease, which is called panic disorder. If he had not had panic disorder, he would not have had the first panic attack. The disease of panic disorder chooses crowded train as a trigger A of the patient. Panic disorder will be cured by the distinction between the trigger A and the trigger B, and by the correct understanding of the structure of the Absolute Compulsion.
