Help Needed With Sensitive Child - Please!
I have an highly intellegiant, 8-year-old boy who is extremely sensitive. He is VERY empathetic and worries about everyone else - even if it does not concern him. Today I received a phone call from his teacher saying he was unconsollably crying after school because he thought his little sister was going to miss the bus. He cried yesterday because he lost his lunch box. I am not a mean mother as I never have to raise my voice with him as he is uncharacteristaclly well mannered (ALWAYS please and thank you before everything) and is a very big people pleaser.He had many 'quirks' when he was younger that he has outgrown such as self stimming (flapping hands) and uncomfortable looking facial gestures. He would constantly repeat what he would say (very quietly). He is a braniac and his teachers have said that he always knows what they should be doing next on the lesson plan.
He is a great natured, well loved and looked up to. He is not shy and great at being a leader. VERY low self esteem. Very uncoordinated - (broke his leg on a trampoline when he was 3 and never quite ran right after that - his little sister learned how to tie her shoes before him...)
He is blonde and fair - almost can't see his eyebrows. Bright blue eyes. Tall and solid but not chubby. He craves meat and water. Drinks A LOT of water all day and night. He has little white bumps on his arms and cheeks. He hates pasta, rice, cereal..
He wakes up early no matter what time he goes to sleep but always happy. He loves hugs and is very affectionate. VERY caring towards other people.
His focus is all over the place and he has a little problem with concentrating. He will forget tasks at hand easily.
Please, please if you have any advice or suggestions on what I could do to help him with his emotional well being I would be forever grateful. He is so worried about everything - I just want him to enjoy being 8 and a child. I appreciate you so much and thank you in advance!!!

Hello lucky mom.
Sounds like he got a shock after the incident with the trampoline.
Such things can get stuck for many years, and must be treated with a medication that can relieve the shock.
The best medicine, as I see it, is called Ignatia. You can give him a dose of Ignatia 200C. (A dose is three pills that dissolve under the tongue before swallowing)
Remember to take your medicine half an hour before food, preferably in the morning.

Hello and many thanks for your advice. I tried the Kali Phos 6x as recommended and while it did seems to help some with his emotional sensitivity - he became quite paranoid and worried about everything. He is now insisting I leave the door cracked at night (which never was an issue in his life) and is worried about things like losing the dog, tornadoes, etc...
Another odd thing that has just started - he has become very itchy in his private area. There are red patches that look almost dry but he is constantly itching.
I am grateful that the tears have subsided some but the paranoia is awful. Please advise on what to do next. Many thanks!!!!!

Did you give him the ignatia 200c?
Stop the kali phos 6x, this will wear off.
You have to work with one person and I don't know
if you noticed you had two people offer
suggestions.

if red rashes have appeared that means some sort of skin ailment which has surfaced,which could have been suppressed,and was not visible.
please donot give him any medicine at the moment and do not apply any ointment on the rashes.
wait for a day or two for them to subside,and give a feed back.
i would prefer a dose of sulphur 30,2 pills in the morning empty stomach,but after waiting for 3-4 days.

I decided to try the Ignatia and it worked wonders! I have been giving him a dose every morning for the last week and he has not had any emotional outbursts - in fact no tear at all! This has been great.
I didn't give him a dose yesterday as we were out of town and he ended up having a really tough morning and was sad and told me he didn't know why he was sad and couldn't stop crying.
Should I be giving him a dose every morning? For how long? Do you think the missed dosage and emotional morning was a coincidence or correlated?
Thanks so much for your advice and/or suggestions!! So very much appreciated!!

Hi,
Parakletos advised the Ignatia 200, but he only meant
for you to give it one time. Don't give him anymore,
he had a bit too much which is why he is having
that reaction. Don't worry, the effects of this will wear off.
For now, do not give him any remedies. You wait and
watch for at least two weeks. He could be emotional about a lot
of things, but then this would subside and he will feel
calmer and more stable.
Check in with Parakletos after 2 weeks on dosing instructions. Send him an email ( he is a homeopath in Norway)
bc he may be taking a break from the forum at this time.

Thank you Simone717 for your reply!
I feel awful that I misinterpreted the dosage amount and I will not give him anything for two weeks and email Parakletos after doing so.

Hi,
Don't feel awful, he had an interesting reaction and this
remedy is helping him. It may have been a blessing in
disguise that you did this. Ignatia releases a lot of stuck
emotional energy from the past, one thing after the other,
which is a good thing and it moves thru the past quickly.
So what one is upset about in the morning, they won't care
about it in the afternoon bc it has already been released. I can
compare it to watching a lot of unsettled weather -just know
that and keep the boat steady, it will pass.
Best,
Simone717
