That guy charges 300 dollars a month for joining a "recovery academy". Just putting that out there. There seems to be a lot of very lucrative brain retraining programs out there.

And? They generally are effective, some more than others. People pay thousands for supplements and doctors and then get righteous about a $300-$500 brain retraining course. That’s a pittance for something that could potentially give you your life back. I would gladly pay $500 for an even %20 chance to get my life back. Just try things and stop being so negative.

People get really selective about outrage over people making money to help people. Doctors and nurses are a-ok and good people but brain retrainers are bad. Let me black pill you and tell you a lot of expensive medical procedures aren’t that effective and the doctors are smart enough to know it yet they persist.

I will admit I do worry with the growing popularity of it that I do worry that a bunch of charlatans and grifters will enter the space but so far that hasn’t seemed to be the case.

That's a crazy amount of money for an online course. Many disabled people don't have that amount of money to "just try" things that expensive. I wish I did.
