The ayurvedic physician I had back in the 1990s was a psychiatrist. He had learned TM so also took the Maharishi Ayurveda course for MDs. But he also took the Ayurvedic Institute (Dr. Lad) MD course too. He treated TM'ers who were having psychological disorders (not me I was just there for ayurveda). He was critical of the movement not doing so hot with such disorders. In many cases folks just need to stop doing meditation for awhile. Or maybe at TM at least since it isn't working well for them.

I read a book back in the early 80s by a chiropractor was a TM practitioner but didn't think it was for everyone and in fact said with some folks probably going for a walk or jogging might be better.
