Alright, it appears you had a homoeopathic aggravation. This may be a good sign, although I feel you may be a little sensitive and in the future we will need to adjust your dosage accordingly.
As the aggravation has only just lifted, we will need to see how things progress through the next week. The process of healing should now be started, and it will run under its own power for a little while.
Waiting is now the best thing we can do.

No you should wait. If it was a homoeopathic aggravation we need to wait and see what kind of improvement it produces. It is important not to confuse things by prescribing again, especially not a new remedy.
I do not know yet what will come out of your reaction. We will need to wait and see how things progress. This might mean waiting another 1-2 weeks.

Hi,
As you told to report back after a week, I would like to share my experiences.
There were many positive changes which I experienced. I have started greeting people, my frustration level has minimised(though not completely cured), I have realised that I need to make an effort to interact with people.
The flip side is that in the initial days of the week, I felt extreme anxiety and nervousness, which subsided slowly, not completely. Though I have started greeing people(neighbours) still i am not able to sustain conversation with them. Whenever there is any sort of communication, I wish to just run away from there.I feel hesitation while interacting, a bit shyness.
Can u pls suggest me something?

What exact date did you take the Ambr 200?
♡ Evocationer last decade
You will need to provide a proper follow up. List every symptom you gave in the questionnaire I posted, and next to it write Better, Worse or Same.
If better or worse, write a percentage % to represent how much.

Some improvement in a few areas - it isn't much but it is noticeable. Quite a few areas remain untouched. Either you need to find the right dosage, the right potency or the remedy is only a partial similar. We will need to work through each possibility one at a time.
First is dosage. Repeat the remedy. Did you take it as liquid or in pillule (dry) form?

Problem is here I don't have a lot of confidence in this remedy choice. I would probably prefer to move to the remedy I would have chosen.
Since it has been over a month since I did the work on this case, I will have to find my notes. I will let you know when I have found them.

Ok this is the core of the case from my perspective, translated into rubrics:
Taciturn in company
Estranged from friends and relatives
Aversion to company, avoids the sight of people
Anxiety when anticipating an engagement
Timidity, bashful
Confidence, want of, self-depreciation
Anticipation before an examination
Delusion despised
Delusion, repudiated by society
Delusion, division between himself and others
Detached
This would lead me to the remedy Hydrogen.
From the proving we see:
Much depression
Detached with a desire to be alone
Suffer from nervous anxiety, often hurried
Lack of confidence and a general sense of vulnerability
Feel people don't like them
I would obtain Hydrogen 200c, preferably in Oral Liquid form.

Hit the bottle 5 times firmly against the palm of the hand.
Place 3 drops into 100mls of water. Stir thoroughly.
Take 2 teaspoons out into the mouth and hold for 20 seconds. Swallow.
This is one dose, and the only dose you should take for the time being. Let me know when you have taken it, then we will assess the response after 7 days.

Well I cannot vouch for any other remedy, but perhaps a close similar could be Nat-carb.

I think i'll have to take nat carb as hydrogen is unavailable.
