Patient ID:
Sex: Female
Age: 23
Nature of work: Sporadic depending on what’s happening in my life. At the moment I am working part time cleaning and putting leaflets through doors but since 18 I’ve always done office work and not enjoyed it. I am worried about the new job at first but then interested because it’s a new novel thing and I’m getting money but then I get bored and then stressed with the rubbish job. Doing the cleaning job makes me feel really bad about myself despite the fact the houses are actually as clean as my own. Makes me feel like a slave and a failure for doing these jobs because my parents paid for me to go to private school and I am ‘capable’ of a lot more when I’m not stressed out so they want more for me (I just want to be happy and have my work fit in around my life not the other way round – they disagree on this strongly with me as they have worked normal 9-5 jobs all their lives and can’t understand me hating office work etc.)

Habits: not really sure what is meant by this question so hopefully I will cover this with the questions below.

1. Describe your main suffering?
Anxiety over future events which manifests itself as mental anguish and in its extreme form becomes physical suffering, normally related to events I have to attend. I also have an annoying fear of losing control which mainly makes me worry about being sick or losing my mind and makes me very limited in what I can do.

2. What other physical sufferings do you have in your body?
I can’t say that I have any other physical sufferings other than short sight which I believe is either a partly result of my anxiety problems or causes it because I have to wear annoying glasses (or a bit of both).

3. What mental sufferings / feelings do you have associated with your physical sufferings?
It’s the other way round for me, I torture myself mentally and then it becomes a physical complaint such as a cramp in my stomach, wind in my stomach, perspiring, shaking etc.

4. What exactly do you feel when you are at your worst? Describe the sensation in your own words.
The worst that I feel is when I am starting to get a panic attack. I normally get them in situations where I feel I could not ‘escape’ OR if my escape would constitute a failure of some sort.
Eg. today I had an interview - I woke up feeling anxious and tense, managed to calm myself after breakfast. Started getting ready and then had a bit of a loose stool (I get this when I’m anxious) and then this happened again a short time later. I needed to urinate quite a few times before going out of the house but after that was relatively calm. I went to the interview early and waited in the car getting more and more anxious feeling fidgety and restless. When I get anxious I swallow a lot because somehow it feels like I can relieve myself by doing it (not sure why but it makes sense at the time) but the swallowing creates gas in my stomach and I feel like I need to burp but if I can’t relax then I try to burp and get worried that I will be sick instead. Which makes me more worried and I swallow more and get more wind which can give me cramps.
I was very panicky entering the interview (mind racing thinking about how to escape) and as I went in the room I noticed my hands were shaking. I was unable to talk properly (mind gets muddled) so made an excuse that I didn’t like the job and left after less than 5 minutes. I felt like a pathetic weak failure and came home and cried a lot on my own. Later today, like now, it all seems ridiculous and I wonder how that could happen to me because when I am not panicking I often feel like I could be a strong independent person (most people who meet me think I’m a strong person).

5. When did it all start? Can you connect it to any past event or disease?
It started when my parents were going through a divorce. It was to be the first holiday I went on with only my dad and sister, without my mum. I didn’t want to go but it was already booked up because I’d agreed to it (I think I was okay about it when I agreed to it as I hadn’t thought about it much). I remember I was going to the cinema with a friend and her friend came along. The friend was asking me about the holiday and I said I didn’t really want to go and she was surprised as it was a nice destination. She kept asking me why I didn’t want to go and I found it too difficult to say that my parents were splitting up so I made something else up. After that I developed what I thought was an illness in the car because I felt crazy and sick. By the time we got to the cinema I had to say I was ill and asked to be taken home by my friend’s mum. I really feared being sick because in the past my mum had always been there when I’d been ill/sick
By the way this was when I was about 13ish and now I’m 23 I fear being sick and havent been sick since my parents divorce – and wasn’t sick during this incident either. I went into about a 6 month(ish) anxiety/depression period then. My periods stopped during the stressful time, whether this was due to diet I’m not sure, but when I got out of going on the holiday my period came the next day.

6. Which time of the day you are worst?
Not really a particular time but eating dinner and after dinner are hard for me because I am finding it difficult to eat as anxiety makes me feel like if I eat too much I might be sick, and also reduces my appetite for large meals. I don’t really like it getting dark either but seem to generally be okay later in the night. Other than that the time of the day when I’m worst would be before a big event or during the big event.

7. What are the things which aggravate your suffering and which are those which ameliorate the same? Example- time, temperature, pressure, rubbing, washing, eating, tight clothing etc.
My suffering would multiply if I were told I had to commit to something. For example if I were to say “yes I will go to your party in 6 months’ time” then I would worry because if I didn’t go then I would be letting someone down so I’d rather tell them on the day of the party that I’ll be there. Anything which involves feeling stuck, whether physically or mentally. If I accept a job it’s difficult if there are set hours each week because I am stuck with it.

Sometimes I fear the curtains being closed as well because I can’t see out of the window (even though it’s dark it just makes me feel hemmed in).
Tight clothes and high heels get me completely panicked if I am starting to feel anxious, especially things which come up around my neck. I remember in the experience where my panic started at the cinema I was wearing tightish clothing and heels and it made me feel worse. When I feel really bad (anxious) I just want comfortable loose clothing on.
Eating can both worsen and improve me. It improves me because I get anxious and shaky if I don’t eat very regularly but if I eat more than a little bit when I’m feeling anxious then my stomach tightens and I feel a bit nauseous.
When I’m panicking I HAVE to be alone, because I am super self conscious.
I also really hate talking to people about what’s wrong because it makes me feel extremely panicked that they may not understand and may think I’m really strange (I think it’s strange but at the time it all makes sense). It escalates my symptoms tenfold to the point that it makes me feel sick. I also find it physically harder to talk when panicking as my throat closes a bit. It’s even difficult writing this text because I hate describing it and admitting that this happens to me (I know the logical answer of how to stop it but it’s different when I am there in the situation).
I can sometimes improve or eliminate the feeling of nausea caused by panic by eating mints and sometimes this can be enough to calm me. Other times the panic is far too strong and it doesn’t hardly help at all.

8. Do your think your sufferings have relation to any external stimuli (like, change of place) or any internal biological changes in the body, like, menses (in females)?
Yes I think that being on the contraceptive pill makes me feel worse, but I don’t like any of the alternatives so I am trying to find one with the least side effects. Pills vary but some can make me feel abslolutely terrible in the run up to my period and then once it’s over I am okay.

Changes of location bother me a lot because I have a very strong connection to being home. I have been a bit like this since I was a child but it intensified after my parents divorce. I dread travel but sometimes if I can make myself travel away from home then I have an amazing time because I have overcome the fear (I can’t do any public transport at the moment because that involves a commitment of getting on and not getting off until the designated stop, so I drive everywhere).

If I can be near a lot of countryside or big bits of grass then it makes me feel a bit better. Cities and pavements, roads, pollution etc. make me feel worse.

9. When do you feel better, during hot weather or cold weather, humid or dry weather?
I don’t like the rain at all, unless it’s a thunderstorm because that releases tension in the atmosphere (it feels like it to me anyway). I like warm dry weather but not humidity or extreme heat because I always fear I am going to collapse as it seems to make me feel weak. I fear the winter a little because lack of sun makes me feel sad and I like longer evenings with light in the summer. I used to fear the cold but I don’t so much now unless I am really really cold and it’s making me shake because that tenses me up. I guess I’m quite intolerant of temperature either way but in the house I’d rather it was colder than warmer.

10. Describe your general mental set up? Are you Moody, Arrogant, Mild, Agreeable Changeable, Nervous, Suspicious, Easily offended, Quiet, Arguing, Irritating, Lazy etc.
I am changeable. In what I call my ‘normal’ state I find that people like me very quickly because I am sharp witted and friendly, though not overly chatty I just like a laugh and a joke then when I know people better I like to talk about deeper things than just shopping and what’s on TV! But when I am going through a bad patch, whether it’s a few minutes, hours days or months I can be as quiet as a mouse and barely speak a word because I’m that nervous I am just living with a constant stream of bad thoughts. Also, this sounds really stupid when I write it but I fear the commitment of a conversation because I know that in the past I’ve felt like I wanted to leave the room but someone is talking AT me for ages.

- How do you feel before or during a thunderstorm?
Tense, sometimes like I might have the possibility of losing my mind. I also sometimes get a headache. It feels like the pressure in the atmosphere is within my head.

- Do you like being consoled during your tough times?
If I am crying then yes, I need a massive hug, though I will cry more initially because of the thought that the person cares enough about me to console me.
If I am panicking then I dislike all physical contact and feel very detatched. I could maybe hold my boyfriend’s hand or something if he offered it, but I don’t crave consolation during panic attacks I just feel an intense desire to be alone because I am more able to calm myself without outside influences and other people talking to me (especially as I’m super self conscious then and fear making an idiot of myself).

- Are you sensitive to external stimuli like smell, noise, light etc?
Yes I think I am quite sensitive to this. Normally I guess I am not too overly sensitive to these but when I am panicking then everything is intensified so a strong smell would make me feel sick (smells are the worst) loud noise seems totally overpowering as it’s even louder than normal (I am also jumpy with sudden noises when I am nervous), and light seems brighter but isnt as bad as the other two things.

- Do you have any typical habit or gesture like nail biting, causeless
Weeping, talking to one self etc?
um, when I am a bit nervous I play with my hair a lot because it seems to either distract me or slightly calm me. The swallowing thing I mentioned above is a very bad habit when I am nervous because it spirals out of control into wind and then making me feel sick. If I am nervous and preparing for an event I’ll pace around a lot to walk off the nervous energy and distract my thoughts a little.

- How do you feel about your friends, family, your children and especially your husband / wife?
I don’t feel very close to my family. Of course I love them, dad sister and mum but I feel like I am very different to them in a lot of ways and they think in a totally different way to me, and yet sometimes I feel like we think quite similarly but only in certain situations or when I am feeling a certain way. Over all we do not have the same aims and goals in life, we chat and have a laugh but rarely talk about deeper things.
I live with my boyfriend and I feel we are much more alike in many ways and have similar aspirations. I love him and during my bad times I feel very guilty about imposing this rubbish life on him because my fears mean we can’t do so much stuff together – I feel like I am holding him back from true happiness and that I don’t deserve him. But when I feel good and ‘normal’ we have such a laugh I just wish I could stop being such a worrier all the time and just enjoy life and stop wasting it.

11. What are your fears and do you dream of any situation repeatedly?
I really fear being sick, though I think I could maybe just about cope with it at home if I was really feeling ill and felt that being sick might relieve it. My biggest fear is being sick in a public place because it would not only be embarrassing but I would really worry that I might then panic and lose my mind and not be able to drive home. I don’t know whether this is where the fear came from but when I had my ears pierced with my mum there I felt sick and it was in a hot room, then I stood up and next thing I knew I woke up on the floor as I had fainted. Looking back at it now I think I panicked through the shock that I’d finally got my ears pierced (I’d wanted it for a while and mum wouldn’t let me) and the hot room contributed to me fainting.
I’m not sure if my fear of vomiting comes from a fear of losing control but often I just think “if I knew for sure that I could never ever be sick then I wouldn’t get so worried about situations because I know that I could never be sick in the situation”. Knowing that it’s a possbility just makes my anxiety continue.
Dreams – when I am ill I get this dream that I am like a rock or something, or that I am me but REALLY heavy and I can’t move myself. This isn’t very often though. I don’t really get recurring dreams but when I am feeling good and strong I get flying dreams and also can control my dreams (especially sexual ones).

12. What do you crave for in food items and what are your aversions?
I crave things like chocolate especially when I am feeling down, but once I have had it I just feel like I need more. I don’t know if I would be described as a craving but I always need to have things like bananas, bread and potatoes in the house because I know that if there’s barely any other food they will keep me feeling okay. I also crave cheese.
Aversions – these vary with my moods. I don’t really like greasy food that much because on the odd occasions that I crave it it makes me feel a bit sick after eating it because my body just feels yuk digesting it all. I fear eating hard bulky things like joints of meat and steaks as main meals because they are too large for me to want to eat a whole piece but a few mouthfuls won’t fill me up.
I also sometimes get anxious drinking things other than water because if I think about it too much whilst drinking it tightens my throat and I feel like there’s the possibility it might come back up.

13. How is your thirst: Less, Normal or Excessive?
I would say about normal but I try to drink a bit more water where possible because occasionally I feel like maybe dehydration makes things worse?

14. How if your hunger: Less, Normal or Excessive?
Less than normal. I eat tiny meals but I try and make up for that by eating more often.

15. Is there any kind of food which your body can’t stand?
I like it but my body seems to react weirdly to garlic. I get a slight stomach ache hours after eating it and then the next morning normally have an extremely loose stool which smells really bad. Not sure if this is normal because my boyfriend says he gets it slightly but not as much as me. Big meal of pasta gives me wind and a bloated stomach, but again that might be normal.

16. Is your sweat normal or less or more? Where does it sweat more: Head, Trunk or Limbs?
Normally I only sweat when I’m doing hard physical exercise because I’m not really a sweaty person. When I exercise it’s my chest, armpits and back that sweat the most. When I am nervous or panicking I get really damp armpits with a different smell to normal.

17. How is your bowel movement and stool type?
When I feel normal I eat breakfast and then about 30 mins to an hour later I have a stool with medium softness that makes me feel better (even if I didn’t feel bad before it’s just like a relief feeling). When I am feeling bad it can vary from sitting for 5 minutes trying really hard to push something out that feels like it’s there (with no result or one hard pellet) or other times it will be diarrhoea from panic. Tends to be lighter rather than darker. Sometimes at night I feel like I would feel better after a poo but nothing will come out, or just a little pellet.

18. How well do you sleep? Do you have a particular posture of sleeping?
At the moment my sleep hasn’t been disrupted yet, so hopefully it won’t be as I try to calm myself at least an hour before bed. I pretty much always prepare for sleep on my back then when I feel like I’m getting more relaxed I turn over and sleep in a curled up foetal position sometimes changing sides if I wake in the night.

19. Do you think you are able to satisfy your sexual desires in general?
Yes. Luckily my partner’s urges seem to match mine, so when I am feeling good and my libido is high he’s normally at the same place as me, and when I am feeling really bad unfortunately my sadness tends to affect him a bit too and so he doesn’t really want sex with me if I am not in the mood because he can sense that we’re not in the right situation to be doing that.

20. Do you have any strange, peculiar or unusual symptom or feelings? How are you different from others?
I don’t know that I get any particularly odd symptoms other than the ones already mentioned. I find that my moods are changing quite rapidly at the moment. In the morning I could feel optimistic, like I am really going to sort myself out, and then by lunch time or the afternoon I am crying in a ball on the bed wondering why I am alive when my life seems so pointless, and then after wailing for a while I sometimes feel loads better, other times it doesn’t help as much. I think I am different from the ‘norm’ because most people just get on with their jobs and grow up, but to me it seems like I sort of need to have a safety net to be able to relax now, maybe I just don’t want to grow up. Eg. if I knew I’d won the lottery and would never have to work again I might improve to normal again. I came to this conclusion because when we went to house-sit my boyfriend’s mums house in the summer I felt almost normal because it was in the middle of nowhere and I could relax with money to buy what food I wanted and no worries about going to work for 3 weeks.

21. What medications have been taken earlier by you to treat the diseases and do you have any particular symptom surfacing after the medication?
I am very strongly against medication for my type of symptoms because I think they just bury the underlying problem to resurface at a later date. However in a moment of despair I accepted anti depressants from a doctor about 2-3 years ago because I felt that was the last option. I took one and panicked, felt sicker than normal, dizzy etc. and couldn’t sleep more than an hour at a time that night, so quit straight away. This is the fighter side of me, I refuse to give in totally (and also fear the side effects of feeling sick…ha, the irony!)

22. What major diseases are running in your family?
None that I am aware of. My family are all pretty healthy because they don’t like drinking or smoking (neither do I, I hate both)

23. Describe, how do you look like? Describe your overall appearance.
I am half chinese and half english with a very tidy appearance. I am quite tall for a female at 175cm and weigh normally 9 stone 9 so I am always on the verge of being slightly underweight but when I am eating okay I look healthy but slim and athletic – I don’t put on weight easily but if I have a period of eating less the weight falls of me quickly. I have slightly olivey/brown skin which tans easily. I have long dark very shiny hair and wear glasses. My face is oval shaped and well proportioned. I hope this is enough information.

(For Females)
24. If your menstrual cycles are not normal, please describe the irregularities, like pains, moods, flow type, clots etc.
This varies with which contraceptive pill I’m on, so I don’t know whether it’s relevant because a period after a pill is a ‘false’ period. Anyway, it’s relatively normal I would say.

25. Have you had another illnesses in you life? What and when (from past to present)
No major illnesses as I’ve never been into hospital but the major problem I have had in my life has been these two periods of stress anxiety and depression (I only get the depression when I get sad about not being able to do the stuff I want to do).


Something else I wanted to add was that I had these feelings when I was 14ish and they continued for about 6 months to a year, slowly going away as I was forced to do things like attend school. It’s hard to remember how it went away because I never knew they were panic attacks at the time, I just knew in some situations I felt crazy and sick. So to cut a long story short (ok I know the whole post is long! lol) I eventually emerged the other side of my parents divorce by getting into clubbing/raving, whatever you’d call it. This slowly brought me out of myself to the point that I felt like “yes this is really me” and my confidence grew more than it ever had and I got into performing doing things like stage dancing and DJing. People used to say things to me like “don’t you get nervous before dancing in front of so many people?” but I didn’t because I loved it, and I was always the life and soul of the party. My downfall came when I decided to look for a new job, thinking it was a job I wanted to do, but later realising that I wanted to do it to please my parents. Being turned down for jobs after getting to 2nd and 3rd interviews made it difficult to attend my old job as I hated it so much…and then I got the panic attacks again and eventually lost the job through excessive sick leave. Now I feel like I am fighting between this weak pathetic character I become when I panic, and the lively funny person I know I “really” am.

I hope this is not excessively long but I wanted to try and give an accurate picture of myself!

Thank you in advance for any input, from anyone :)

lets wait for andres to repertorise the symptoms but superficially it seems to be ARS ALB or ARGENT NIT.

Very lovely Newbie2:
I would like to know english language better for explaining you the great amount of marvellous things you have: first of all, yourself.
Homeopaths use to read the words and the feelings that live behind the words. Because of your words, I have to say the charming you are. Don't worry. Bad experiences, bad reactions and annoyed behaviors all of we have had. Living is accept this behavior and try to do the best we can and feel.
As Dr. Rishimba adviced, ARGENTUM NITRICUM fits very well in your case.
Contraceptive pills act in your hormonal system, because of this it is usual you don't feel fine in your premenstrual periods. Sometimes further you stop with pills, and you feel as you really are.
Well, I propose to you this treatment:
Take ARGENTUM NITRICUM 9CH, three pellets in awake time, 30 minutes before your breakfast.
After 15 days, report please.
If you have some doubt or you want to make a question, please, feel free.
Best wishes
Andrés

Thank you both for your replies :) and Andres thank you especially for your kind comments. I know really I should stop worrying, and what annoys me so much about this situation is that a lot of the time I am a very rational sensible thinking person but this small percentage of the time when I'm irrational and panicky is starting to have far too big an influence over my life.

I've reviewed the arg nit overall picture and it does seem to fit well, scarily accurate in places!

Anyway, I do have a couple of questions:

I always eat breakfast within about 5 - 10 minutes of waking and wouldn't really want to wait 30 minutes each day. You did mean to take this dose every day for 15 days didn't you? Not just a one off...

Also, what is 9CH? I can't find it listed where I buy my remedies, is it the equivalent of something else? The only 9 potency I see listed is 9X

Dear Newbie2:
Nice reflection.:)

All remedies we employ, have been proved and developed a Pathogenesy: all the symptoms different from the normality and relationated with the intake of the remedy. When these symptoms are repeated in a certain amount of provers, then we write in our Materia Medica. If you have read about Argentum Nitricum, you'll have found a lot of symptoms, some of them contradictorius and a lot which don't fit with you or your case.
Homeopaths study the patient's symptoms and select the most indicatives (in your case, anxiety attack, anguish, digestive disorders and emotional imbalance). All of these in their grades are covered by Argentum Nitricum. Arsenicum Album is the other one anxious remedy, but it has digestive symptoms more strong, with heartburns, acidity, diarrhea... Skin problems, insomnia disorder (most between 3 a.m and 4 a.m) etc. I think Arsenicum Album isn't the similar.
If you can't take before you awake up, don't worry. Take after, but at less 30 minutes after you clean your teeth.
9CH is the potency of the remedy. CH is the same as Centesimal Hahnemannian. Too is written usually as 'c'.
Is a low potency, and I try to work for a time, better than give you a high potency and wait.
If you react well to this remedy, passed this fist step, we can work for longer duration.
Please, get the remedy a ARGENTUM NITRICUM 9C.
If you can't get it, try with 30C (more usual but stronger, because of this it can produce aggravation).
Best and kindly regards
Andrés

As yet my digestion has been minimally affected, it has been badly disrupted in the past by stress/anxiety but it's okay at the moment so I would say arg nit is definitely the first thing to try for me.

I can't seem to find Arg Nit 9C ANYWHERE! I would like to avoid aggravations if at all possible. I know you are obviously more experienced than me in this field but is 6C not closer to 9C if I can't find the correct dose? Or is 30C definitely the best alternative if I can't find the 9C?

Thanks :)
 
newbie2 last decade
Dear Newbie2:
As I said, first of all: don't worry.
Second one, if you can get ARGENTUM NITRICUM 30C, please, use it.
Take in the same way as I said.
Only a caution: when you feel better, please stop the remedy.
I think you can be better in a week (more or less). Please, report after a week and I give you another advice to drive your anxiety.
Be happy ;)
Best regards
Andrés

Hello again :)

I've been taking the Argentum Nitricum for 5 days now since starting on Monday morning. I feel loads better this week but I should also mention that last weekend I overcame a big obstacle by driving 5 hours for my boyfriend's grandmother's party for a 3 day weekend and then driving 5 hours back (this caused major anxiety but I did it nonetheless). Managing to do this made me feel like I'd really achieved something so I can't say it was necessarily JUST the homeopathic remedy, but maybe it is! Also, the clocks changing always makes me feel better because there is light for more of the evening.

I seem to have more energy, not excessively so, but I just don't tire as easily. I feel more positive on the whole, and more confident although I've not really had any confidence 'tests' this week such as an interview or anything like that. I'm cautiously optimistic about this but also wondering at what point I should give it a rest and see how I cope?

Should I stop now that I am feeling improved, or should I carry on until the end of 7 or 14 days?

Thank you
 
newbie2 last decade
Dear Newbie2:
Thank a lot for your input and report. Very nice news.
If you are taking ARG. NIT. 9c you can continue theintake for a month.
If you are finally taking ARG. NIT. 30c, you mut spaciate the intakes. If you feel better, please take it in alternativ days: one yes, one no; one yes; one no...
In a month, please report again.
Warmest regards

Andres I have been continuing to take the arg nit 30C but I have felt terrible in the past few days, worse and worse by the day. I don't know whether it is this or the lead up to my period/contraceptive pill break that is making me feel this way. It could be either, or a combination of both.

Whatever it is I don't feel like the Arg Nit is affecting me positively now as I took is yesterday and felt the worst I've felt in a long time. I felt weak and devoid of energy, very small appetite and a very tight throat due to anxiety/tension.

Today I feel even worse, finding it difficult to leave the house and crying/feeling weak emotionally and physically.

What should I do? Stop until it goes away? Did I take it for too long after feeling better maybe?

Dear Newbie2:
Don't worry, please.
May be a proving of Argentum Nitricum (or overdosis).
Stop with Argentum Nitricum, and take a glass of milk, three times a day, for antidoting it.
If after two weeks you feel better, forget Argentum Nitricum. If you feel bad again, please, report and we take the symptoms again and search for a right remedy.
Best regards
Andrés
