Treating same sex attraction problem.
Dear sir/madam,I am an effiminate man and have a same sex attraction problem (gay feelings). I have been attracted to boys and men since I was a child. The men do not have to be very handsome, the confident ones attract me more.
I have two unmarried uncles, although I don't really know the cause, there is possibility my problem is genetic. Since I am able to conceal my orientation I guess they can also.
I have visited my local homeopathic practitioner on this matter and he supplies me with 'Hypotalamus' remedy for this. He also ask me to take 'Arnica' first before taking the 'Hypotalamus'.
After two rounds of treatment I still feel no change.
Any advice?
I am also insecure, emotional, touchy and crave for attention for a very long time although I manage to control these as I age. I am very shy in public but can talk non-stop in a one to one conversation.

Homoeopathy cannot cure this as it is not a disease. It would be more appropriate to have someone to talk to about your problems with accepting it. Homoeopathy will also be useful in helping you to come to terms with it.
I have treated many homosexual patients over the last 20 years, and despite being given the simillimum (remedy which cures all their symptoms) they do not become heterosexual - because it is not part of a disease. There are no recorded cures of any homosexual person becoming heterosexual in homoeopathic literature.
There are some instances of heterosexual people who after becoming sick, become attracted to members of the same sex. When their symptoms are cured this will fade as well. None of these people had been homosexual since childhood, it was literally a change in their normal state that was accompanied by symptoms.
In fact, when I have treated people with a strong aversion to their own homosexual leanings, after their remedy has worked, they are always more accepting of themselves and happier identifying as a gay person. My observation is that the person's discomfort with being gay is the symptom that is cured, not the actual being gay itself, which is perfectly normal and natural for a certain percentage of the population.
It is important as homoeopaths not to sit in judgement over patients, making decisions out of our own religious or personal beliefs about how other's should live their lives. The remedies do not make judgements, they simply put the vital energy (life force) back into balance, and when I have seen that done in gay people, they do not become straight, they merely become happier being gay (and healthier to boot).
Do not trust a homoeopath who attempts to feed any low self esteem or even self-hatred you might have because of this. No remedy should be given to attempt to change you into something that the homoeopath thinks is 'better'. Homoeopathy was not designed for this, and true healing never requires it.

Being homosexual is not mistaken identity. Many homosexual people do not act or want to be a member of the other gender - that has nothing to do with sexual preference.
How men and women act is primarily a result of society's expectations, not nature's.
In Western culture, in Europe, men once wore wigs and make-up. The wealthy especially acted in a way we would now consider 'effeminate'. However this was not a disease, but a result of upbringing and social pressures to act a particular way.
I have often seen patients who explored gender behaviour as children, go on to be quite secure in their sexual preference later on in life. How we expect boys and girls to act is based on the culture we live in - it is not part of a natural state or a disease state.
