19. Important Question.
Mind-behavior, anger, irritability, hurry,
impatient…and so on.. How are you different from other persons, public speaking or not, you can describe all of the details about your behavior, love and affections. - I tend to get irritable pretty often, especially around my menstrual cycle. I get really irritable when I'm hungry and haven't eaten in a few hours. I also get irritable if I haven't slept well the night before. I'm a pretty patient person, I don't like to rush and like to do things with time and on schedule. I get angry and upset and sad when I feel I have been slighted or disrespected. I absolutely hate and fear public speaking, one of my biggest fears. This impacts my ability to speak even in smaller groups or settings. Romantically I am happy, but have some outstanding issues with a parent that I haven't spoken to in some time. I am very sensitive person, I over analyze things people have said to me or done to me. I take things very personally. I tend to worry a lot, sometimes I feel like life isnt fair, why me? I wish I was more social, outgoing, funny, vibrant, and able to have a lot of fun, make friends, take some risks, find my passion, and enjoy my life. Otherwise, I am very friendly, pleasant, and kind to people. I probably try to please others too much so I tend to not speak my exact true feelings all of the time just to agree with other people to please them. Then I can get angry or irritated later on that I did that.

20. Color of the secretions/discharges e.g

Okay, thank you.

Last period was September 19. My next period will begin October 17.

Thank you very much for your reply. I will go ahead and purchase the Argentum Nitricum 200c and take it as directed. Thanks again.

Hello,

I have purchased and taken the Argentum Nitricum 200C as directed. Today was my final day taking it.

I didn't feel too different the first day, maybe a little bit more calm and relaxed in the evening. The 2nd day I found myself blushing a little bit more. And today, my final day, I noticed my face blushed multiple times throughout the day. I also had heightened anxiety today, I couldn't focus at all at work, feeling tense and nervous. I don't know if it was from the Arg. Nitricum or from the fact that I got my period today (which came about 2 or 3 days early also which never happens to me).

Am I supposed to feel some significant changes? How soon exactly would a remedy eliminate the blushing/social anxiety/shyness if it were the correct remedy? Do you believe that I should try something else? Please advise. Thank you in advance.

As far as my period, I am not experiencing anything different than I normally do on my period. But I am having pretty strong cramping, and lower back pain. I also felt really tired, moody, cranky, unfocused, anxious, and bloated the day before and day of getting my period.

The only unusual thing about this period though is that it started 2 days earlier than it was supposed to. My cycle is always 30 days, consistent, and on time (at the most 1 or 2 days late), but never early. So I wasn't sure if it was from the Arg. Nitricum or just a coincidence.

Today I'm not feeling too much anxiety, but felt my face flush once or twice (even though I am all alone at home today and not even in a social situation).

Thank you for your reply.

Is the Belladonna 200c for the period symptoms, for blushing, or for anxiety? I'm just wondering what to expect with taking this remedy. Thank you.

Okay thank you. I went ahead and purchased the Belladonna and waiting for it to arrive.

I have one last question...would there have been any need to have an antidote for the original remedy you told me to take (the Arg. Nitricum)? Is it safe to take the Belladonna back to back after taking the prescribed dosage of the Arg. Nitricum just a week apart from each other?

Okay thank you for letting me know. I will update you once I receive and take the Belladonna as directed.

In the meantime, I've been experiencing some strange symptoms in the lat 48 hours. I've had extreme indigestion/heartburn, and nausea, with a lot of gas. I haven't done anything differently or eaten anything strange. Could it be possible this is from the Arg. Nitricum?

Hello Nawazhkhan,

I ended up taking the Ferrum Metallicum this week as you suggested. I didn't experience any noticable or unusual symptoms from it really. Maybe just some depression, I've been feeling pretty depressed and low since I've taken it.

I have felt more flushed and hot this week however. I have had a few situations where the blushing came on strongly. I'm almost at wits end about this and don't know what to do or take anymore.
