Low self esteem/procrastination/pain in heel

Sex : male
Age: 36
Height: 5 feet 9 inches
Weight: 190 pounds



I had a troubled childhood, where I had a low self esteem and was quite shy. I always used to think that no one liked me. I never used to have a good concentration in my class, however I used to study at my home as my father used to teach me. I did quite well in my class till middle school, however about 5 years were very bad for me as I just went down in my grades. Thereafter I started improving and went to a professional school. I had a Master's degree, worked for about 5 years and cam back to school to pursue a Ph.D.. My problem is that I am unable concentrate on my task for a long time and just keep procrastinating till the last minute. In evenings I don't prefer to go out and just stay at home. I am always comfortable to talk to my subordinates, however I am unable to talk to my superiors. Usually I don't like to do any household tasks also. Sometimes I feel difficulty to recalls proper nouns. Many times in a discussion I do have an answer and don't talk or I am unable to recall the correct answer and it comes back to me after a while.
I have been prescribed Sulphur 1M, which has given my slight improvement. For last 9 years I have a pain in my left heel, which gets worse if I stand for a long time. Homoeopathic treatmnt was taken. I used to get aggrevations but no improvement. I feel uneasy to stand for longer times. My eyesight is week (myopia) and I get some blackish floaters in my view. I like studying about occult, alternate healings, yoga, meditation, etc and listen lots of relaxing music. I don't like winters as the cloudiness makes me feel low, though I don't feel that I go into dpression. I always have slightly raised pimples on my back and scalp. I also have dendruff.
MENTAL/EMOTIONAL
I worry about my studies or research work but don't devote fully. My house/ desk/room/study/bathroom are always moderately dirty? I occasionally get some inspiration to clean up the clutter. I guess I don't feel much bad about it.
12. I feel like crying if I watch some emotional movie or if a tragic news on TV such as people dying in some tragdies. I also feel like crying if I hear about somebody's ordeal or great actions of children etc.When I am upset, I listen some music or relegious hymns. Physical excerise always make me very confident and reduce my anxiety. I don't gat angry very easily. Usually the things which make me angry are small family issues. zi always have a low level of anxiety.
I am afraid of lizards and dying in a flood of water. Most difficlt circumstances in my life was getting bad in my studies during high school. I dealt with it by working harder.
Greatest joys in my life were getting admission in professional school, followed by admissions in another good institutes for higher studies and also passing the speciality boar exams of my profession and getting a couple of awards. My childhood was bit messy. I always felt lack of money. Was afraid of my father as he was very dominating and used to spank me. Other people's behaviour usually does not bother me as I am quite forgiving and even if I don't like something in somebody, I just neglect that bad quality. The most problem in my relationship comes from the relatively less communication I make with my wife and take her for granted. I don't have any recurring dreams, but I sometimes see dreams related to relgious places. To feel happy I will need a good paying job. I am a PH.D. student with board certification in my area and as soon as I'm done in next two years, I am confident that I will get a highly paid job. I have less numbers of friends but they think me as a very sympathetic person, who could be helpful for those. I avoid attending phones from my friends. I don't know why. So many times I don't return calls. I would like to be more social and more onfident to communicate with my superiors.
I feel sleepy if I go without a meal and feel slight headache sometimes after meals. I do like eating sweet and fatty things, but keep control on my diet so that I don't gain weight (I am already overweight)My sleep used to be 5 to 6 hours till recenly as I was not getting time from my professional obligations, however for last few months I have started sleeping for 7 to 8 hours and I don't feel like getting up in the morning and keep snoozing the alarm. During sleep I snore and occasionally I get sleep apnea. I sleep on my back. I took Sluphur 1M for sleep apnea, an I am not getting that problem now a days. I get sore throat as soon as I drink orange juice. During childhood I had chicken pox, malaria and typhoid. I don't have recation to any drugs or vaccines.
At 9 years of age I had a wart on my right leg and some homoeopathic treatment cured that. Similarly at 22 years of age I devloped corns in the soles of my both feet and the problm was solved by homoeopathic treatmnt.
I get a watery nasal discharge if I walk for some time in cold weather, which gets normal aftersometime when I return to warm place.

Maternal grandfather had hypertension and herat problem, matrnal grandmother had diabetes. Paternal grand father has hypertension and was iagnosed with gall stones. Paternal grandmother had parkinson's disease. Father has hypertension an is a dibetic. Mother has hypothyroidism. Both parents and me have some weight gaining tendencies. I also have mild hypertension.
My sexual energy is moderate but since we are very busy in studies and for last 4 months I have a chance to visit my family only once a week the frequency of sex is once and rarely twice a week.
I feel good if somebody consoles me.

My main problem is to waste time and procrastination and shyness from superiors.


I will deeply appreciate some homoeopathic advice regarding my problem and if you want answer to some more qustions, please lt me know.

I have been studying. Not easy sometimes. You know the feeling.

From what I read, you seem like a good-hearted person and are using your intelligence to forward yourself in life. And on the other hand, you seek spiritual things and insight. These go well together as one must learn to live "in the world" while understanding the unreality of it.

You say, "My main problem is to waste time and procrastination and shyness from superiors."

SOMETIMES one is not procrastinating, but taking long making decisions. Think on this. I believe you are listening to others and are too self-critical.

Shy with superiors, may get in your way. You may become the "superior" one day and you must know both sides.

Plain respect of a superior may help you overcome what you call shyness.

Instead of self-criticism when standing in front of your mirror, seek out the good things about yourself.
I know you have good things. You are just too busy running yourself down.

In some parts of your report you show some feelings of self-worth. It is there, lean on this and develope a knowledge of your good parts and let this over shadow that which you criticise.

It is like having dirty clothing on and you decide to bathe and put fresh clothing on and you know you present a picture you prefer.

It is a waste of time criticising the dirty clothing, change what you do not feel comfortable with, and liking the new, forget the old. It all cannot be done overnight.

I am sure that you have already worked on some things you wanted different?

LEARN to talk to your wife more. Give her this simple respect. Get to know the human in her. This will be your first lesson in using your spiritual knowledge.

What you GIVE you GET back. What goes around, comes around. (not necessarily from the same person)

TUBERCULINUM 10M would give you a lot of help. Take only ONE dose per week for 4 weeks. Do not take more during the week. In homeopathy, more is not better. (yes, 10M)

Please let me know how you are doing as you go.

Blessings, Sabra

Dear Sabra,
Thanks for your reply. It was very encouraging and I'm confident that it will help me tremendously.I have got Tub 1M with me. I live in US. Do you have any idea that how can I purchase Tub 10M. If you suggest 1M is OK, then I'll take that one.
Regards
 
asharma last decade
I got that 10M must be the dose. Hold the bottle in your hands and ask the remedy to "match the needs of (my) body for complete healing." And thank the powers that be for doing this for you.

I have done this more times than I can remember. Began many years ago. It always works. Do it before taking each dose.

Blessings, Sabra

Thanks Sabra. I'll do as advised.

Hello Sabra,
Day before yesterday I felt some burning sensation while urination. I took two glasses of water with juice from one lemon. Within half an hour I developed severe sore throat. I felt feverish whole night an could not sleep. Yesterday I felt very uncomfortable. Whole night I had fever and severe sore throat. Still I am having problem in swallowing and a headache around my eyes. I was just wondering could it be an aggrevation of Tuberculinum?
Thanks
 
asharma last decade
Yes, this could be an increase of known or unknown symptoms. These things will pass. I realize you are very uncomfortable, but this will not happen every time you take a dose of remedy.

Lots of water is good, do you think this was a little too much lemon? You may be more sensitive to this acid right now. The lemon would not have caused the fever or discomfort.

Try to eat alkaline foods. The body needs to be alkaline to be healthy. Books in library or at health store. (Acid vs Alkaline)

You have many things brought forward from childhood that "may" turn up as unknown symptoms. You may not recognize them and think they are new and an illness, but knowing T. this will bring the supppressions in your life to the surface, wherever that may be, and dismiss it.

Homeopathic remedies release the suppressions and REVERSE the bad effects and the body is free to eliminate this stuff. The body cooperates well with the homeopathic process in this way. It is like you are opening a bunch of locked doors and airing everything out. Some old things may not "smell" so good.

A very uncomfortable fever or body condition is only treated at this time if one is in danger of being actually sick with something.

Remind yourself that fevers are the body's natural action to eliminate any unwanted conditions in the body. A fever is not always a sign of danger.

Hopefully you were not tempted to take any more than the one dose. Wait two weeks before the next oral dose.

This next week at the time you would have taken the 2nd dose, only hold the bottle and say "thank you for matching the needs of my body for complete healing." Then put the bottle down without a physical (oral) dose.

Prepare your next (two weeks) dose now. Purchase a small bottle of water and place ONE pellet of the remedy in it. (Put onto a spoon, do not touch it). Pound the bottle on your hand and set aside (marked) in the rif. to wait the two weeks. Then when it is time, shake up, and take only ONE teaspoonfull as the dose, no more. Hold the bottle first and say your sentence of thanks. Then take the ONE dose. Save the rest in the marked bottle in back of rif. for the next dose.

This all may sound strange, but it really works. You are very sensitive (in a good way, but not necessarily in a comfortable way as yet). This will work for you in the treatment as weeks pass. Just avoid allowing yourself to become panicky or discouraged.

It is like cleaning the tile in a pool. One uses a cleaner in dilution and scrubs around the tile. When all is done, a good rinsing and washing down the drain will show the pool all shiny and ready for the new and clean water to fill for enjoyment. (I forget the name of this cleaner, but it IS diluted, and this makes the cleaner stronger!)(a common scientific fact: some things, when diluted, become stronger).

Drink lots of good BOTTLED water. At least 10 cups a day. Avoid anything with caffeine as this will act as a diuretic and eliminate more water than you drink. Let me know if the urine continues to burn after you have consumed a large amount of water.

Please continue to report, I will watch.

Blessings, Sabra

Thanks-a-million, Sabra.
I had difficulties in sleeping last night as I was unable to properly breathe. I feel as if there is a swelling on the left side of my throat (may be tonsillitis) and I'm having pain while swallowing. I have mild head ache, too. I will follow your advice.
Regards
 
asharma last decade
Hi Asharma,You may want to get a bottle of APIS M.

You mention swelling often, and Apis is for many things including "unknown swellings."

It would be good to have on hand in case you become far too uncomfortable in the throat and breathing, you may be forced to take a dose or two to relieve this.

I sincerely pray you will continue to improve and will not need it.

Blessings, Sabra

Sabra,
Throat pain has almost subsided, however I'm having bad breath. I'm unable to sleep prperly as I get up frequently. Mental symptoms such as procrastination and lack of concentration in a task are still present. This was an update for you.
Thanks
Regards

This will take some time. Homeopathy is not like allopathic that seems to work quickly while it suppresses the condition only to show again later.

With Homeopathy, one goes through all the "stuff" and when it is finished...it is truely finished.

Patience and trust.

Blessings, Sabra
 
sabra last decade
Yes that's true Sabra that patience and belief are required for homoeopathy to work. Thanks-a-lot.

Sabra,
In previous mails I forgot to metion that I have hypertension (94/132). Whenever, I have this problem, I feel some heaviness in my head and headache in my temples. After taking Tub 1M I had developed very bad sore throat, which mainly affected my left side of throat and took almost 4 weeks to subside. It seems that the pain in my left heel has increased and is as it is. After I started the treatment I feel some feel good feeling. Please let me know if you have any advice or I should wait for a while. Thanks
Regards
