11. Food Desires - like salted foods, rich foods, tea and dairy products. I also tend to eat sweets or crave them. I desire more. I'm also vegetarian, in case that's important and eat almost everything. Enjoy home cooked food more than outside. Tend to over eat whenever I like the food!

12. Thirst - I do not crave cold soft (fizzy) drinks. I like lemon water. Am not very thirsty and drink water in low qtys. often. [thirstless]

13. Tongue and Taste: I'm not sure if anything stands out for me in regards to this, although I do enjoy rich, mild chilly and sour foods. I have sweet tooth.

14. Current Blood Pressure: with allopathy medicine 120/80. I regularly take medicine for High Blood Pressure.

15. Few situations that had a big effect on me
These are the incidents I feel stand out during my life, although the events in between are the most prominent and the things I feel like I can't let go of or move past the most.
-parents always controlled me and I wanted to be a free bird to peruse my own interests.
-elder brother was mentally retarded and I loved him a lot.
-that’s left me to be less social. His responsibility was there on every member of the family and everyone took good care of him equally.
- I did not get admission in engineering and then later in MBA.
- I had a very strong headed boss where I worked who always looked at my negative sides and ensured that I failed at every step, which prompted me to be careful and today also I dream his obnoxious statements.
- Twice have been taken for a sweet ride by my friends and made to undergo heavy financial losses.
- So I am introvert, shy, fearful yet happy, bold, adventurous in phases.

16. Current and previous remedies/medicines I am taking or took in the past?
I follow all pathies. For any disease I would visit an allopathy doctor, a homeopath and a ayurved doctor, simultaneously. In every field of cure I have very close doctor friends. My simple view is to get cured fast. I fear disease a lot and thus go for these three pathies and once these are started, I forget about the disease…
I wish I had been treated by a classical homeopath because my father in law was a classical homeopath and have seen letters and heard stories about cures. I have never met him but hold him in very high respect.

17. Educational Qualification
I would say I was an average student academically but very intelligent, I was a quiet student and always tried to please. I loved team sports. I was good in languages, science and maths. Since I was not permitted to challenges I lost all interest and motivation.
I went to college for the heck of it. I was adventurous by nature but had no motivation and this was also when I feel my depression started and I closed myself. But whenever I desired I would study smart and pass out with flying colors.
Am M.Sc. in drugs chemistry and then did several organizational sponsored management and leadership courses for top management, looking at my leadership qualities.

Am a slow learner for anything in life but work with compassion to and steadfastness to master it.

18. Nature of work.
I am currently a BUSINESS GROWTH ADVISOR for small and medium enterprises. Its more of mental work. Requires lots of travelling, thinking, reading, alone time. Whenever there is work I am very active but whenever there is no work then I it requires effort to come out of the bed and do any work.

I was a strong leader when I was employed due to my coaching, excellent bosses, team and my adventurous nature. I now feel I have lost the cutting edge.

I am very cautious now. Though risk taking is my second nature.

19. Vigour and Vitality: low.

20. Mind-behavior: anger, irritability, hurry, impatient, slow in decision, deep thinker, unorganized, want others to do my work, vary of non-productive jobs, love my work and less of domestic work. Oflate I have become very social after my mom passed away and my dad is aged.
.
I am kind hearted and never cheat anyone. On the contrary go a step ahead to help anyone even if he/she is not known to me.

Money doesn’t have much importance in my life. I consider ease in life more important than money. Have very basic needs and not very ambitious anymore for more for money but yes for fame and recognition.

I have very sharp memory and always want to look good so dress up very decent. I wish to have a wonderful body.

Trust others easily and expect to trust me too equally.

21. How am I different from other persons? I am good at public speaking. I am decently behavioral, and has loads of love and affection for family, friends, and relatives. Medium in confidence.

22. Mood :
-really low mood, numb feeling, often no interest or energy to do anything, indifferent to everything.
- easily do not get angry, but when continuously haunted then can’t control the aggravated anger within me, easily startled, anxious
- sudden noises set off anxiety e.g. car doors slamming, people shouting/screaming
-I also will feel anxious in anticipation for things, for example if I know something's being delivered to my house that day I will feel anxious all day or in anticipation that something can go wrong.
-I feel intense pressure to be perfect, and to do everything perfectly. I feel extreme responsibility to keep family safe and happy. I do not trust anyone else to care for my things like I do.
-I find it difficult to focus on things, if I'm concentrating on something but there's other things going on around me or someone's trying to talk to me then I can get very irritated.
-anxiety symptoms: weak heavy feeling in pit of my stomach, and sometimes in the anus area. Trembling. Heart Palpitations. Mind feels like it's racing but I am not able to focus on anything or recall anything I was thinking during that time. I often feel exhausted if I've had a particularly anxious day. I feel anxious just thinking about situations that have or would make me feel anxious.
-My mind is on overdrive constantly, I am going over all of the negative things that have happened to me in the past no matter how long ago. And no sooner I realise I easily let it go.
- I like to dance and sing hindi melodies and ghazals.
- I like comic, suspense and martial art movies a lot

-I used to be angry about past experiences and hold resentment towards people who have caused me pain, no matter how small. But not now.
- I am very lazy.

23. Dreams: not many but usually of fear, negativity and depressing.

24. Fear: snakes, darkness, closed areas.

25. Any surgery: anal fissure in 2001 and appendicitis in 2015. Now I am told that prostate will have to be removed, which I do not want to.

26. Enjoy: swimming, water, trekking – feel low now when I can’t play them due to knee problem and palpitation.

27. Excretions - I sweat a lot. At the slightest exertion I sweat. And I don’t like it. Urine quantity is good, clear

28: Like: meditation, non-invasive or alternate health therapies, dark clouds, getting wet in rain, spiritual, religious and motivational talks, interacting with leaders and intellectual people. Play safe.

29. Sleep: is sound, but I of late take medication for claustrophobia while sleeping. It is these disturbed to enlarged prostate since I have to go for urination several times. Usually I like to go to sleep around 9:30 pm and wake up at 6:00 am.

30. Physical exercise: whenever I can I love to go for swimming if the pool is neat and clean, otherwise I do want to but don’t like. Am lazy.

31. Avoid: confrontation, gossip, boasting and listening to people who boast, talk a lot, crowd, going out.

Additional points:
1. Large stomach area.
2. Can’t wear very tight clothes.
3. Not spend thrift but not even miser too.
4. If I stand longer then my legs go numb from hips downwards.
5. My mother was heavy and she had border range diabetes. My dad is stout and sturdy.
6. During swimming nose dries up often these days and breathing becomes difficulty during sleep.
7. These days I get tired fast. While lying on the bed or sofa if I get up immediately, there is strong giddiness.
