Anxiety, Unable to do ordinary things/jobs

Dear Homeopaths please help me get out of fear/anxiety. I am unable to perform very simple and ordinary things because of lack of confidence and fear. My life is stuck because of anticipatory anxiety.

Male, 31, Unmarried

Describe your main suffering and from how long?

My main problem is anxiety/fear/lack of confidence/claustrophobia for last 6 years. Can't perform anything without any reason. Can't take any risk. Always avoid flying, shopping malls, gatherings, watching movie in cinema, going alone on a journey, fear of new places, fear of dark, fear of collapse/faintness


Any cause which you feel for this ailment?

No certain cause in my mind. But 6 years back i got an anxiety attack without any solid reason, just by anticipating/imagining a claustrophobic situation in my mind.

What other physical sufferings do you have in your body?

Coryza (Zukaam, Kera), one side of nose is always blocked (nose congestion) since child hood. Hair fall, dandruff, pain in lower back for last 4 years. Palpitation.
No libido. Excess fluid loss because of masturbation i think.

What mental sufferings / feelings do you have associated with your physical sufferings?

No mental suffering associated with my physical sufferings.

When did it all start?

Six years back when I was 25, once I imagined myself in a closed dark space and got a severe anxiety attack. An imminent fear of death and fear on unknown was there for almost 2-3 months after that incident. And after that I could never live a happy life.

What are the things which aggravate or ameliorate your suffering?

Now a days slightest things can aggravate i.e., to perform a mental job, speech in front of people, presentations, interviews, in dark, when i am alone, a traffic jam, closed spaces, lifts (i always prefer stairs than lifts), I always want to escape the situation that I cant face.

When do you feel better, during hot weather or cold weather, humid or dry weather?

I like cold weather and open air.


What do you crave for in food items and what are your aversions?

I can eat every thing both meat and vegs, I prefer to eat simple. No specific choice in eating, love barBQ.
Aversions: all the situations that may lead to tense me.

How is your thirst: Less, Normal or Excessive?

How is your bowel movement and stool type (Constipation etc.)?
Normal; no constipation, no digesting problem. But have white/yellow coated tongue, Cracked tongue in middle, red tip of the tongue. Also I have mouth full of saliva when I open my eyes in morning.

How sleep, how are your dreams?

Sleep is normal. Dreams of snakes or fear of snakes is noticeable.

Do you have any strange, peculiar or unusual symptom or feelings?

When I travel I have a feeling of forgetting the way to destination/home. Home sickness. When I start doing anything new I always want to revert it back or want to keep the track so that I may return back to the starting point. For example when I install anything in my computer, a constant feeling comes in my mind to reverse/uninstall the s/w to revert the change in my computer. And untill I uninstall it I can't take a sigh of relief. So a Change is a sort of worry for me.

Thanks a lot Dr Reva V
I took 3 doses of Pulsatilla CM on weekly basis. Took last dose on Saturday 16, 2011. May I start Kali Brom and Bryta Carb today? Or should take a dose of Nux vomica first ? Please advise.

I prefer you leave a gap of 10 days after your last dose of Puls and start these medicine. No need to insert Nux Vom
