Hello! I'm Sil. This is gonna be a long read. Please be patient and thank you in advance.

2. Sex: Female
3. Built up: overweight (80kg at 1.60m height)
4. Complexion: fair
5. Occupation: student
6. Single/married: in a relationship

8. List out all your PROBLEMS with its since how long,which part is affected,which side,what you feel during complaint etc:in an order(which came first then which came?
ANS:
- I started putting on weight when I was around 13 years old. I haven't been able to work it off since then. No matter what kind of diet or exercise I try now, they're no change. I've had some crappy job that required me to walk at a fast pace for at least 6 hours every day, for months, and even that made no difference. I've had months where I felt too discouraged to do anything which led me to eat once every 3 days. It still had no effect on my weight. I've never been a great eater. My diet isn't very consistent so I can't really blame that.

- At around 15 I started suffering from hair loss and had extremely infrequent menses, like once every 6 months. The hair loss was all over my head, not just tuffs. My gynecologist said I have a hormone imbalance (too many male hormones?) and had me take anti-androgen birth control pills for can't remember how many months. Nothing had changed except for a more stable period but at the same time it changed from painless to very painful. Eventually I stopped taking them and my periods reverted to being irregular again. Years later the gynecologist discovered cysts on my ovaries. I got no treatment for that. By now my periods have randomly stabilized, but the problems still exist.

- During those years I became very tired, no matter how much I rested. I am still permanently exhausted. I dread things I have to do in the next week because I don't know if I'll have the energy for it. It sounds like too little short time to rest. I never wake up refreshed, I never feel good. Movements are slow and sluggish.

- I am mentally and emotionally EXTREMELY tired as well. I am not in the mood for anything, not even my hobbies. I used to be a very disciplined and hard working person, now I don't even want to think about simple matters. It stresses me a lot, because it's getting in my way of my studies. I cannot get myself to study or remember anything if I somehow force myself to do it. It makes me extremely anxious because I have great financial problems and I NEED that university degree to be able to get out of this, but even in the face of that immense fear and stress, I just become completely numb and mentally paralyzed instead of doing something about it.
I fail to get myself going even for important matters other than school. I've managed to complete a few (freelancing) jobs despite all and still need to get paid, but I have not pursued my employers to get that money even though I'm facing dire money problems. I don't understand myself. I just have 0 motivation for anything.

All of the above problems started when I was around 12-13 (about 14 years ago?) when my parents would get into frequent ugly fights which eventually led to their divorce. Since then I stayed with my mom and had to deal with lots of financial problems and also my mom's loneliness (partner-wise) made it very uncomfortable and sometimes unbearable to stay home. I never thought any of that truly bothered me, but seeing as that it all started at that time... My mom still puts a lot of pressure on me because she also depends on me finishing this school and securing us a better life, but I'm just too numb and.... can I call this depressed(?) to do anything about it.

Hello! I hope you'll see this message.

I've been taking Kali Phos 6x for about 2 weeks now. Also took Pulsatilla once.
My nearby pharmacies were unable to get me any of the drops, but I'll have them shipped later at some point.

I feel mentally a lot better. Been able to do more mental work without getting exhausted immediately. I do not have nightmares anymore either and I also stopped waking up early with a strong sense of dread. I even don't mind the sunlight as much anymore? I'm surprised.
I still lack courage to tackle things though, but that also doesn't feel as bad anymore.

How should I proceed?
Do any of these things I've been prescribed help with my hair loss?

Thank you very much again.

can you express improvements in percentage for each symptom you had?

Good evening. Sorry for the late reply.

I'd say mental exhaustion has been improved by at least 50%
The sense of dread in the morning is completely gone.
Sunlight sensitivity has been improved by 80%.
My scalp has been less sore, by 50%
My confidence has had a slight improvement of 20%

I've stopped taking the kali phos pills and my period started about 10 days too early and the cramps were a lot more painful than usual. I don't know if it was coincidence or not.
Should I continue taking them?

I have a question
You've told me to get get
-phytoline q drops
-phytolacca berry q drops
-fucus vesiculous q

I've finally found a place I can buy them from, but it offers different potencies. Which one should I order?
edit: fucus vesiculous is only offered in potency: D, C, LM and FC

Again thank you very much in advance.

repeat pulsatilla 1m, when you observe previous dose has completed its action,wait till then.

i suggested fucus vesiculosus,phytolocca berry and phytoline in Q potency,if its not available,you can take all these in D POTENCY D1,D2 OR D3. USE 3-5 DROPS INSTEAD OF 10DROPS

YOU CAN USE MAG PHOS 6X OR D6 4TABLETS DISSOLVED IN HOT WATER FOR MENSTRUAL CRAMPS
