This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Today it was all day about “Nothing can defeat me, I won” again. These are words that act like a remedy on me and feel empowering. They give the power back to me, into my hands. It changes everything. Going out for a walk feels like a battle again. One I am looking forward too. I am not one to avoid a good battle. If I would avoid it I could not live with myself. I feel like I am on the winning side again. At this moment for now I don’t feel like taking any remedies anymore. I certainly don’t want to quit and take the easy way out with taking a remedy, now that the battle has become interesting again; the tides of the battle have turned into my favour. Although on the other hand, thinking outside of the box I can see I am fighting a small battle, although it seems rather big to me. So if I took a remedy I would probably start fighting bigger battles than these small ones that I am fighting now (taking an observing look).

Anyway had some situations today where I did not avoid conflict but fought for what I thought was right and wrong. Had an argument with my brother in front of my father and I won it. My father didn’t even say a word to me…. And that’s how I like it. The magic words of “Nothing can defeat me, I won” made me fight when the anxiety hit me by being accused wrongly in front of my father. I usually would not argue in front of my father, but today I did and there was no doubt in my mind that I won and later without a doubt in me whether I won or not I went to my brother and talked to him about something and could see how he was a bit anxious in front of me by the clear defeat he got.

I feel good in this moment.

My verdict on palladium after 7 days is: I like the improvements, although it still all a battle. So palladium probably is not the remedy, not big enough improvements.

No I am impatient, i would like to speed it up if possible. I proved to myself that I still got it all. so I allow myself to take remedies.

I see I am gaining confidence by thinking nothing can defeat me in situations that cause anxiety.

Since yesterday I am sweating a lot from underneath my arm pits. When I am in a situation that makes me tense etc it's like tears are rolling down my arm. Although not to many, about 3. That's how it used to be a few years ago. I would sweat from underneath armpits in situations that cause anxiety.

I don't know if palladium is healing me or am I doing it myself with my 'nothing can defeat me' mindset. I would think that this Is rather row 6. Row 5 don't have ego struggles or issues with power if I remember correctly.

Nope you are wrong about that. Ego runs right across all rows except row 1. Power runs across rows 4-7. Ego runs across all animal groups, as does Power. Ego and Power are broad concepts that could be found in every single remedy we have as some kind of issue.

Believing nothing can defeat you is another delusional state - do you think that is health? It sounds just like a compensation for the other state you have very frequently expressed. Compensation is an act of will, and is done to cover up some aspect of ourselves that is unacceptable, either to ourselves or to society generally. You are showing the same problem as before but in the opposite direction.

Creating mental structures to compensate for underlying weaknesses is not what homeopathy does. I believe NLP does that, as do many psychological therapies.

True cure, takes the issue away altogether - there is no need for action, or thought about it. It simply quietens down, vanishes, so that the person can respond appropriately to any situation. Positive thinking, while promoted as a useful tool for self-development, is really a crutch that allows the underlying problem to remain in place, often gaining power.

Oh I know very well what the nothing can defeat me thing is... the opposite of my current state, Or the one I had before rather. I know its not health, but its better than my previous state of feeling powerless.

The thing you said in the 1st paragraph was new to me though.

Well I dont know what my power and ego problem is about since you say its a broad concept. All I can say is that I feel good when I have it back in my hands. The power
 
Silicea last decade
Its not better, it is the same. It is not a measure of improvement - in a patient of mine I would be very suspicious of a sudden change of state to the opposite.

The most terrible crimes in the world are committed for the sake of power. Only by removing your issue with it at all will you be healed.

One of your themes is to alternate between extreme states. Can you see you are just doing what you have told us you do?

Power, Love, Communication, Affection, Hate, Anger, Sadness - all these sorts of things are common human experiences they don't point to remedies. It is the peculiar individual things that define them for the patient that leads you in the right direction. These things are usually the kind of details that patients can express unconsciously, but not see themselves.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Well yes it's no better if you look at it from a certain point of view but from my point of view it is better. Because This way you can live at least. Feel good about yourself. Oh i see you mean From a homeopathic view (lol) it's not an improvement. True

''Can you see you are just doing what you have told us you do?''

Umm I don't follow you there. Don't know what you mean? Can you tell me what I do?


Yes alternating between extreme states that would fit very well.

In my ego struggle i feel low or small, inferior. But I can not accept this to be really true and than comes the other opposite where I feel nothing can defeat me.


I will say this: If I look back to when I took Lachesis I improved, or back when I took phosphorus where I would get bothered by seeing girls on the street at night. But it don't bother me anymore. I drove around a bit and saw some girls. Only a little bit did I think I want to be with them but than I thought bad things of those girls. How they probably have sex every night they go out. That I don't need to be with such girls. And again thought to myself that nothing can defeat me.

So it seems I am improving every remedy I take. Yes it is better. The feeling that I want to be with the girls was not intense at all so that it would overwhelm me. Ah thank god, that made me feel like a looser, 'needy'

Yea I am alternating. Inside my home I might feel ugly, or not good.l enough. Well something missing. But outside I feel very good about my appearance and know that people like it. From past experiences. Although if I were not depressed I would look Much better.

I looked today in the mirror once when I came home and I thought like wow when I saw myself. there was nothing negative I could find about my appearance. I Was happy with it all. It must be because of the 'nothing can defeat me' thing. From feeling good about myself outside.

I still cannot see myself going back to society and mix with people. I don't want to. I mean I would want to in a way but on the other hand I don't want to. I have been away for 5 years. Things have changed

Well whatever. You obviously know best. Good luck with it all.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
That's funny. I did not mean to sound like I know better, rather agree with you.

I am open to hear what remedy I sound like. Although don't wish to get away from palladium unless it's guaranteed I won't loose current improvement. I can talk with my father again in a way that makes me feel good about myself - I thought this will never happen, but I am not afraid of his criticism anymore, in fact I see him kind of below me, well I always did so anyway and I am sure I am not the only one in my family who sees him that way

I believe I don't sound like palladium but I am very reluctant to go away from it. I don't know if it was the remedy or my reaction to it that made me feel very good this whole week.

My approval seeking seems to have gone kind off. It's less.

What would you suggest, David? How do you see it all? What would be the next step?

Should I wait more?

I apologize if I sound like a know it all. Thank you for still helping me. I know I am somewhat difficult to deal with. But I am trying my best.
 
Silicea last decade
I am feeling kind of bad now, dont know why. Is it because of your last post, or is it because when I drove home I saw some girls and stepped on the gas to a 110 in a 50 zone. I dont know, I felt kind of hopeless or isolated after it. Like what was the point of doing it. At home when I saw my mother and brother I didnt feel anything, except for some destructive impulses of hitting them or something. But this are just thoughts that come and pass.

The nothing can defeat me thing is not working so well at the moment, I am probably feeling tired from the whole day feeling tense and exposing myself into difficult situations. It was harder walking around people without my sunglasses on today. Probably because I was all out - no hiding, no checking my phone when it got difficult. Just thinking to myself that nothing can defeat me. I won. And it felt good after I came home. It felt like a success, like I won.

Suprisingly my BDD is not causing me problems at the moment. Because when I look in the mirror I automatically think that nothing can defeat me so its all good there. I like what I see.

I walk around my house like a boxer going into a ring with my fists clenched and hitting a few things in a slow way just to extend my arm... I think I need a punching bag, to let my energy and tensions out.


See thats what I meant above that to me at least it seems more managable now that I might have gone over to the opposite side, BDD is not an issue really, I dont feel down, just sort of hopeless, isolated but good about myself. well better than before.

I even took a few pictures of myself today with my nothing can defeat me face and I could not see anything wrong with my face. It might be that my BDD was not about my appearance afterall. But rather that I hated my horrible expression and so was trying to change it. Make myself look different.

I had a situation that made me panic a bit. I was lifting weights (have not done it in a long time), while listening to music, and when I got out of the room and walked down the hallway with the music still playing, something moved me deeply - an emotional part of the music was just on. And I had to stop myself out of fear that I am going into fantasy land. Then when I got into the kitchen I worried whether people who go into fantasy land become insane out of the blue, all of a sudden or how does that happen. So I panicked a bit. Then I went to google how one becomes insane lol but found nothing useful. For a moment there I was scared when the music was playing and me walking down the hallway that I am going into fantasy land. But no it cannot happen to me, I got to much knowlege. I got it all under control. I stopped myself. Nothing can touch me.
 
Silicea last decade
I woke up and feel good again. My head feels lighter. And I feel it even stronger now that nothing can defeat me (lol), must be from all the work I put in yesterday, it was a successfull day - no defeats. I like it but I am aware its not health. Just the opposite state like I said. I have not gotten any suggestion on what to do by you yet? and I am puzzled a bit. I dont think you will ever get a patient who is as aware as me of everything or close to everything... well it must be my know it all attitude than I am guessing. Although I disagree, I dont have such attitude. Things I dont know or are new to me I admit to.


One thing that is bothering me is its getting warm again, the sun is shining and I fear sun spots. I at no cost want to have a face full of sun spots. I should have none... I looked in the mirror a bit and think I have got a new small sunspot close to my nose from being to much in the sun yesterday. I hate it, those spots seem to appear everytime I expose myself to the sun. just unbelievable.

I rather stay open to suggestion so I decided to delete some posts. I feel like I am getting weak and back to the old way. Dont know whether I should fight or be the old me. Although I can see i will get back to the big me if I will get critizised or feel anxious again... I can already feel it again that I am not wanting to accept this state at all. I seem to alternate quickly between extreme states. I cannot accept my low, weak, small state so no option but to go back.

I guess this is what I have been saying - from the outside, you can see this pattern in you. This is one reason you need an objective prescriber, someone who can see past these things.

At some point you are going to have to accept help - you cannot do this yourself.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Thanks.

I accept help. I am always open to it... but than all of a sudden I disagree with prescrptions etc and think I know best - just like you said.

I dont know what to do about it. I accept help and remedy suggestons as long as I agree with them, otherwise I go on my own.

But there surely must be a way to get around this problem.


I am wondering what it means when you want to be a remedy that is big. Whether this means you are big or small than. Or what it means if you want to be one of the 2 special remedies (palladium & platina) and if you found out you are not it you would feel deeply depressed. Does this mean you are one of those remedies or not. I would think it means you are, since the mentioned remdies profile is about wanting to be special, but you said you are not the remedies you want to be.

So than again I am thinking maybe the reason why you want to be a specific remedy could be for many different ones, so this rule does not necessary always apply to it. The reason why you want to be a particular remedy like the special ones (palladium, platina) could be because you want confirmation that you really feel special and because it is of great importantance to you. I know those 2 remedies dont doubt their special status but at times they can become unstable as far as I know.


Anyway I am open to all help. I wonder if you would say it is still suggested I take anthropleura or if your view has changed by you seeing what palladium did.

I feel the palladium is starting to wear off, although when I leave the house its still the same... Nothing can defeat me mindset.

Silicea last decade
Remedies shouldn't wear off, they should change something.

I did a lot of research on that remedy so obviously that needs to be tried first.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Well no I would not say Palladium is wearing off or whatever it is that is making me feel better.

I am making myself something to eat again. Usually I eat just a sandwich till around 5 or 6pm.

I went to the beach and there is sort of a calmness about me. It feels like I got something back. I feel good driving/walking around and it feels like people are looking up to me.

When I got into my car I saw a woman with her man get out of their car and I could tell by the way she looked at me that she liked something about me.

What I found a bit strange is that, theres a small fence I have to get over to get to the beach because some idiots blocked it apparently because the stairs down to the beach are damaged from cliff fall which is not true. (I am not the only one who still uses the stairs by the way)

So getting over the fence I usually would have to jump but today the fence seemed smaller. I just put my foot up and stepped right over it.

Although at times when I am alone the old feelings want to come over me. I cannot describe the sensations or how they feel in fear that it wont be accurate and mislead the case, take it down the wrong pathway.

But I will say anyway but do not take it as 100% correct: It feels like an attack, for life & death. Something big wanting to attack me, some big forces. And a sort of isolation. Or rather I feel this way when I feel isolated - the attack on me.

Well irrespective to if it was correct how I described it or not... The words of nothing can defeat me help a 100%. In all my years I havent found anything that deals with this feelings as good as those words. And I find it strange that i got to them the week I took palladium when one night I thought to myself that I deafeated all the other remedies that were suggested for me. Like I won. But the heaviness that followed made me feel horrible again but I refused to let myself be defeated by it.

So I am still standing tall 9 days after taking palladium.

I dont think its the palladium that makes me feel better. I think most of the improvement came from the 'nothing can defeat me' statements I make when it gets tough. Although I am aware most people when they get sort of better say it was everything but the homeopathic remedy who made them feel better. So I dont want to be like the other small minded people and say that palladium certainly seemed to have initiated something. Which was the idea that nothing can defeate me.

I am telling myself today since its getting a bit tough again at certain times when I am on my own feeling isolated, that I should hold on for 1 more day Platina will arrive tomorrow. But on the other hand I want to wait and hear what suggestions there are for me. Its sort of a conflict. I am absolutely certain that I need it, I dont need anyones opinion on it but on the other hand I feel different.. I want to listen and do as would be suggested to me to not isolate myself I guess.

Palladium made some sexual fantasies come back again, which are of inapropriate nature and I hope Platina can deal with this sexual aspect. And I am masturbating again every day



I will say again lets talk after Platina. If palladium or platina dont cure me I will be crushed and feel like I am dead anyway so I think I will need help and not feel picky about remedies anymore, since there is no special remedy anymore.

So if I could get help after trying platina I would appreciate it. Or if I am lucky get help with dosing if platina works for me.


Sorry if that sounds bad. But I can only talk about help after I see what platina does... this sort of things have a meaning for me. Of great importance. Platina, palladium not working = I am not special.

I believe one of those must work, because when I think of the scenario of neither one working for me, I will feel crushed, dead. There is no tomorrow anymore. Sort of like my BDD problem. If I lost my appearance there would have been no tomorrow anymore.
 
Silicea last decade
I didnt see your reply before posting my last post.

I will get to the antrophleura after Platina if needed. As I mentioned above I need to see if it will work for me because of the meaning it would have for me. Hope you understand. Its not about simply taking a remedy. It has a greater meaning for me.
 
Silicea last decade
I am going to stay with palladium for a bit longer. It would be wrong to switch so quick to a different remedy. And it seems some old symptoms are coming back. And a change definately is taking place.

Need to give it more time,
 
Silicea last decade
Well if I may expand on my last reply in the other threat about masturbation... I believe how I am feeling physically is a good thing. It feels like the fullness in my head is realeasing. I sort of have a feeling at the vertex again and at a point on my forehead. I can feel the wind blowing against my hair.

The Signature was just me feeling sort of high. But I was close to making a new user name for myself, and thought from now on I want to be known as George vitholukas junior lol. It felt good but it would be childish and attract criticism or me getting belittled, and not taken seriously anymore so I rather not. I feel slightly more stable again.
 
Silicea last decade
I dont know how this will sound. I hope it does not sound bad... I would let you guide me if we would just work with the remedy palladium & platina. Only go to anthropleura and other remedies once its confirmed that palladium and platina dont act on me.

Otherwise I will have to do it on my own. But I would prefer if you would guide. Tell me when to redose or if I should switch to platina.

___
My head feels really good at times: less full, light and I have a feeling sort of back at some parts.

I don't know if I have mentioned this before but I am not much in touch with the right side of my head, face, body. Sort of numb and all symptoms that appear usually appear on the left side therefore. Except for a constant upper eye lid twitching I got for many days after taking phosphorus. And the Lachesis made me briefly be more in touch with my right side again. Palladium helped with my numbness too... I have a better feeling in my legs, back, shoulders, chest and today it seems to be working on my head. Making me feel parts of it again. As I mentioned vertex and forehead. Although it comes and goes.
 
Silicea last decade
Again you obviously are going to do whatever you want. I am not guiding you through wrong prescriptions. Come back to me when you are done and we can start on proper treatment.
