Mental symptoms: I think all the time, instead of act! Page 5 of 7

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Dear Will

I really feel sorry for these diversions on your thread.

Coming back to your problem there is no harm in trying ANY remedy provided you don't repeat itt unnecessarily, assuming that you belong to the not so sensitive type of a person.

Your posts don't indicate that you belong to the sensitive category. As such go ahead and try Baryta carb first as suggested by Sameer.

I will be watching your case with interest and chip in as and when required.

All the best.

Pankaj,

You mentioned a few days ago you'd like to know more about my head injury.

I am 33. When I was 13 I was walking in a field with some trees in it. When I walked under one of the trees, it turns out another kid was hiding up on one of the branches, maybe six or eight feet up. He dropped a small log directly down on my head. It landed on the top of my head. It was probably a foot or two long and a little less than a foot tall. But it was wood and of course kind of heavy. That could not have been good for me.

A doctor lived in the neighborhood and he immediately came down and looked at my head and directed me to the hospital to get stitches. I forget exactly how many stitches I got (I think less than ten).

I did not lose consciousness, but I almost did... I guess I did black out for a second but it didn't prevent me from screaming and crying my way to the nearest neighbor's house only a few dozen yards away.

Having said that... I do have a few memories of what I guess you could call mild obsessive-compulsive behavior or neuroticism or something, before that, when I was about eight or so. An example is I remember sitting in a drive in theater with my mom and sisters, and I remember that I used to feel compelled to count on my four fingers in a specific way. It was a mild urge, and I remember having enough control to stop it but it felt better to do it. It's not that there were a whole bunch of things like that I was doing, the 'counting fingers' thing is the only one I remember. But I was always an oversensitive, nervous kid. A stranger yelling at me would just ruin my day. I mean it, the whole day. I'd keep replaying the experience.

I don't think my nervous system can take the strain of strong emotions sometimes, and being told off/criticism/being yelled at by someone you don't know for some reason will really do it to me.

And it isn't just being yelled at, that's just where the day to day problems are most likely to be I suppose. I have a horrible time with the opposite sex.

Anyway the only common thread I see in my fears is that of anticipation. If I actually have to DO something, doing it is almost never as bad as anticipating it ever was. In fact I usually do ok at whatever it is. But the anticipation has caused me to ruing much of my life.

Thanks for your thoughts.

- Will

Thanks. I understand that there are some strong feelings to work out, so it is ok.

>Coming back to your problem there is no harm in trying ANY remedy provided you don't repeat itt unnecessarily, assuming that you belong to the not so sensitive type of a person.

>Your posts don't indicate that you belong to the sensitive category. As such go ahead and try Baryta carb first as suggested by Sameer.

Well based on that, unless there is any strong objection I am just going to go ahead and test the Baryta and keep everyone apprised.

>I will be watching your case with interest and chip in as and when required.

Thank you Murphy, I appreciate that.

I don't want to dump so much information on everyone at once, but I thought this was important.

I have a few old bottles of homeopathic remedies sitting in the house. It occurred to me the other day that I already have two that are sitting on that first Remedy Finger list: Ars and Phos!

So I took the Ars, which I had just bought at a local store on a whim, it was on sale but it was expired since 2004! I didn't notice that until I bought it.

Anyway, it was an expired bottle of Ars 12C... I took it and the first time I took it, it was like wow, this really helped my mood. The next day I felt even better so I took another dose. It did relieve some symptoms and do me some good, again mostly mood, but I should observe that it did nothing to help with motivation/getting things done (at least at this 12C level). So imagine me much happier in disposition but just sitting there like a schmuck. :) It may have helped with the remnant of OCD type stuff that I have. (It's hard to tell because it is goes away, it takes awhile before you notice, because everything feels natural.)

I admit I also tried the Phos (30C) before that, and the first time I took it it *seemed* like it helped, some with the 'what other people think of me' problem that we're discussing, but I'm not sure of this yet. It is possible I didn't give the remedies enough space apart. I'm not sure how much is really necessary here.

Just FYI I also have these sitting around:
Phos 30C
Arnica 30C
Mercurius Vivus 12C
Nat Sulph 200C, CM, 1M
Ars 12C
Antimonium 30C
Nat Mur 12X


I also tried to Nat Mur last week... It seemed like it helped but in retrospect I'm not sure yet if that's really true or not. At such a low potency maybe it's not fair to say.

Dear Will,

When did you take the Arsenic 12C dose and how many doses did you take ?


Sameer.

Will,
It is okay to have tried ARsenic alb. but don't take other meds indiscriminately.

Will analyse your other posts and coem back to you.

Pankaj Varma
 
PANKAJ VARMA last decade
Sameer and Pankaj,

I took Ars 12C on... I believe it was Thursday night (it is Monday afternoon here right now). So about four days ago.

I took it shortly before falling asleep, as I suddenly remembered the homeopathic meds I had stored away while researching some of the points made by you guys on this thread.

Anyway, I began to feel good (mood uplifted) before going to bed. When I woke up the next day I felt even better. But maybe by early evening I sensed the improvements had basically stopped. So I took a second dose then. Didn't seem to do too much for me either.

I also experimented with a dose of Phos 30C either that night or the next day. That is the one I feel might have helped but I'm not sure.

I know I tried Ars 12C again, so it was probably the next day.

I hope that is what you wanted to know.

I feel confident that at least the initial dose of Ars 12C improved me. That is not to say it worked on all or even my most important symptoms but I was surprised by the mood improvement.

- Will
 
Crimsoncloak last decade
Dear Will,

You should have given time for the Ars. dose to act if you had got benefit.

You should not experiment with these medicines in this way where you keep taking medicines one after the other.

However in view of your apparent improvement, I would like you to try a SINGLE dose of Arsenic Album 30C. And this time give the dose time to work , and let us know how you feel a week after this dose. And, remember just ONE dose, no more doses till you post back your status here.

You can buy Ars. 30C at whole foods or any other health food store in your area.

Good luck
Sameer.

Hello Will,

This is what you said:

>I will be watching your case with interest and chip in as and when required.

Thank you Murphy, I appreciate that.

- Will

--------------------

Even though Baryta Carb. did not show up on the Remedy Grid...Murphy still wants you to take it.

If you keep listening to every one....you will be collecting a lot of garbage...in your belly.

Murphy/Murthy will do anything to oppose some other persons views.
He can even twist the Laws of Homeopathy for that....by twisting a few words/sentences of English.

Since you are a layman, you will accept the words as genuine...

We have seen for a long time that the interest of the patient is not prime in his mind....rather self glory.

So please make up your mind....

I don't like writing bad things about anyone here...and the Moderator doesn't like it too....but it is for the sake of patients like you that I have to do plain speaking....as for the cause of self-glory...many patients are being mis led here...by some.

Just as Truthfinder has pointed out about....Jacob Scott / Organon / Sameevermani.

Jacob Scott / Organon and Murthy work in tandem to disrupt many homeopathic sites...including ABC Forum.

Organon has his on site and Murthy is a moderator at hpathydotcom......the important reason for them to disrupt other sites.

Hi Will

Look at the venom that is being poured out and decide yourself whether whatever I said is in your best interest or not.

To set the record straight I have nothing to do with the other people mentioned except that we share the love towards 'proper' homeopathy. We don't work in tandem as alleged but give our independent views. Some times they may match because we basically believe the homeopathic philosophy.

There are people who have very superficial knowledge in homeopathy but imagine themselves to be experts.

I really pity them.

Dear Simon

It is useless to try to prevent me from seeing Pankaj's posts while everyone else can see. That means denying me the opportunity of defending myself.

Think of some other way to make Pankaj to stop vilifying me. That alone will solve the problem.

By now you must have observed that it is he who starts this first and I react in self defense that too after showing maximum restraint.

Murthy

Ok... Everyone, here is the deal. I received Baryta and Aurum Met in the mail today, both are 200CK.

Since I have Baryta right now, and nobody (Pankaj, Sameer, or anyone) seems interested in me taking Aurum at this point, I'm going to try Baryta 200CK three times, evenly spaced, starting when I get up tomorrow.

I will post my results here.

This is not an indication of whose advice I favor, but I hope everyone understands my condition is not good and I must try something, even if there may be some moderate risk involved. I accept that. I really have nothing to go back to anyway.

Anyway, having said that, I don't think anyone has claimed that one medicine, no matter which it is, is going to completely cure my condition. So I hope everyone will continue advising me.

Pankaj, I will be ordering more remedies in the next few days so that they are on hand and ready when the time comes to experiment with the next remedy. It will take a week to get them anyway so it seems wise to order now. Do you still recommend Nux?

Thanks everyone. I don't know when I'll have something to post but I'll let you know how it's going.

By the way, assuming I take the Baryta tomorrow, how long must I abstain completely from alcohol?

Also along with the Nux Vomica I will be adding Lyco to my order list.

Hi Crimson

You should wait for a week atleast after taking ANY medicine for chronic problems.

There are other methods to hasten the cure by giving a daily dose (split dose in water), but that has to wait till we find the correct remedy.

I concur with Pankaj and Sameer that we shouldn't leave a remedy which seem to have worked.

Try Ars.alb 30c as suggested by Sameer . Don't take any other medicine for a week atleast and don't repeat even the Ars. 30C.

As you have rightly grasped a single remedy is not going to cure you and as such it is good that you keep a stock of a few probable medicines.

But let us see how far Ars is going to help you.

When you want to try a single dose it is important that you take it under ideal conditions. Homeopathic medicines get antidoted by strong odors .

So make sure that there are no odors on you (perfumes etc), near you(in the room sprays etc) and in your mouth.

Report back after a week.

Murthy
 
gavinimurthy last decade
No odors on you, near you and in your mouth while taking the medicine.

You can take moderate quantities of alcohol even while being on homeopathic medicines.

Alcohol won't antidote homeopathic remedies.

I was reading about Lyco around the internet and this short article caught my eye, and I wanted to share a couple bits with you that struck me as important.

From:
http://www.1-800homeopathy.com/products/details.html?product....

'On the personal side, Lycopodium cases tend to lack self confidence.'
Probably me. I've improved a lot over the years, but I don't feel I ever solved the deeper problem, just learned to deal with it better and put on a good front.

'They may be dictatorial at home, yet timid outside; they like praise and being thanked.'
I would not call myself dictatorial. But I am certainly more confident at home than outside. I assumed everyone was like this?

'They may feel tormenting anticipation, stage fright and exam nerves before public speaking or performing, but true Lycopodiums perform with ease once in the spotlight.'
This is me! I do not crack during a 'performance' (at whatever). It is strange but I just never do that. But I have surely ruined my life so far by failing to attempt things because my estimation of the problem or what would happen was totally unrealistic. Picking up the phone to call someone to ask for something or make a sale, or asking a girl out, anything that involves the possibility of rejection/criticism.

- Will
 
Crimsoncloak last decade
You definitely need Lyco at one stage or the other.

I prefer that you take Ars now as it will remove the anxiety.

We will review after a week.

Murthy
 
gavinimurthy last decade
Thank you, Murthy.
 
Crimsoncloak last decade
Well if I take Baryta tomorrow when would I take the Ars?
 
Crimsoncloak last decade
Don't take Baryta now. If you have to procure Ars.30C do it now. Don't take any other medicine even if it means a little bit of waiting.

In homeopathy the best results happen to people who are willing to wait after taking a medicine.

We will have to give a reasonable gap to assess the response of the medicine.

Our assesment changed after you revealed that you tried Ars and it helped you in some way.

That is why we want you to continue with Ars but in a slightly higher potency than what you took already.

If that is you 'Will'...then you should be taking Lyco.

But start with Nux Vomica as it clears up the system of the 'negatives' done by allopathic meds, alcohol, high life living etc. which is very common these days.

Pl. go back to my post of 28-03-2008 , it has detailed recommendations.

Best wishes
Pankaj Varma
 
PANKAJ VARMA last decade
Abstain from alcohol, coffee, garlic-raw, perfumes etc for 15 days.
 
PANKAJ VARMA last decade
Can anyone suggest a remedy that I can take while taking any of these other medicines you are suggesting, that I can use for insomnia? I am not getting to sleep until like 6 a.m. and that fact alone it difficult to get much done (since I am waking up after noon time).

Also, I feel much stronger at night, in case anyone recognizes that as useful information about my condition. Thanks!

- Will
 
Crimsoncloak last decade
Problems like insomnia will always be corrected under the correct remedy. You do not need a sepearate medicine for that.

Homeopathic medicines tend to bring an over-all improvement when you take the correct one.

However as mentioned before, take a SINGLE dose of Ars. 30C and wait for 1 week.

That is the best step right now.

Sameer
 
sameervermani last decade
Interesting ...becoz Nux Vomica rectifies that abnormal sleep pattern.
