1. 28, 5'6', 130 Ibs, tall, slim and fair.
2. I went through some traumatic experiences about 10 years ago. Ever since then, I have been depressed. I suffered severe memory loss. It has had significant affect on my speech as well. After my traumatic experience I wasn't able to sleep in the night for two years. Now I frequently get nightmares in the night. I'm very afraid of the dark. I do get irritates fast and can't seem to control my anger. I get anxious easily to the point that I can't function. I find it hard to concentrate or finish any tasks.
I feel resentful towards my family. I have become indifferent about their problems.
3. I'm unable to resolve my past completely. I feel lot of hurt and resentment. I was on a verge of committing suicide ten years back. I also feel guilty for things I did wrong. I find it difficult to forgive myself. I have tried to deal with suppressed anger and hurt, but it resurfaces when I'm in even remotely similar situation.
4. I constantly get backaches and headaches. Both are sore most of the time. I am prone to sore throat. My stomach is bloated most of the time. I feel weakness in my body. I have visibly dark dark circles.
5. I feel better in the morning and worse in the night.
6. I often get nightmares. Even otherwise, I get disturbed sleep or I feel the need to sleep for long hours.
7. I don't usually sweat, but if I do then it's in the armpits mostly. some in the back and head.
8. I don't feel thirsty normally, but I do crave for tea often.
9. while sitting.
10. it's erratic. I stay bloated most of the time.
11. I rarely feel aroused these days.
12. periods are late. they last for 4-6 days. I usually get backache before menses and cramps during the menses. My irritability increases before and during menses.
The flow is usually scanty and sometimes normal. The blood is thick bright red and I get clots.
* I started taking Sepia 200c 5 pellets/3 times a day two weeks back. I have taken 80 pellets total till now.
I'm noticing a change in my behavior. I've noticed an increase in my energy levels although not significant. My anger and anxiety levels have gone down. I feel less depressed. And I'm affectionate towards my family.
Thank you!

You have taken the right remedy. Please don't take it that way. Please don't kreosotum as i advised you in one of your earlier posts/thread. Please see how Sepia affects you upto 15 days after stopping it and report back after 15 days. It is a remedy acting for a long duration and should not be repeated daily.

Thank you so much for your time and advice! I really appreciate it!
Can you pls. tell me what is the recommended dosage of Sepia 200c?
Is it okay for me to take Rhus Tox 200c for my eye infection. If yes, then how much of it should I take?
Thank you once again!

i generally recommend the following plan-
1. Take Remedy in 30c potency thrice a day for 2 days and wait for 10-15 days.
2. If the response is favourable and the symptoms that were addressed by the remedy come back, repeat the remedy in the manner explained in point 1.
3. If the action taken in Point 2 is not working, take three doses of the remedy at a gap of 4 hours in 200c potency for only one day and wait for 15 days.
4. If the response is favourable and the symptoms that were addressed by the remedy come back, repeat the remedy in the manner explained in point 3.
5. If the action taken in Point 4 is not working, take a single dose of the remedy in 1M potency and wait for 30 days.
6. If the response is favourable and the symptoms that were addressed by the remedy come back, repeat the remedy in the manner explained in point 5.
As high potency works best at mental plane you did the right thing by starting at Sepia 200c.
You may take Rhus Tox for your eye infection if symptoms agree.
