i find some contradicting and confusing statements in your answers and some generals which lead me to PULSATILLA.
mentally, you are a bit confused as to what is life all about. you alo have some imaginary fixed ideas which need to be overcome.
take a dose of PULSATILLA 10M on a single day morning in empty stomach.
no remedy for next 15 days.
come back to report your status after a fortnight.
best wishes..
