Well you either are or are not regressing - if you are in some ways then you are. So if that is the case repeat the remedy.

I hate the winter, I hate it. I need to move because I can barely survive it. I get so depressed, and irritated. I cut off all social contacts. I'm not sure if homeopathy is going to work for me or my son, I'm really not...it was great the first time, but never lasts, and each subsequent dose has helped less and less. I don't think this last one has done a thing. Same thing with the remedies for my son. I'm afraid I may have to go back to Prozac just to survive. Aggravating every dose or having it not help it really screwing with both our lives. I can't stand it anymore. I wanted so much to feel better for more than a few days...it is hopeless, oh well. I need to sequester myself in my room and cut off the world before I keep lashing out at everyone.

So what happened when you retook the remedy. It has been 5 days what has been the result?
What has happened with your son? Did you go up to 200c? What was the result of that?
Aggravation can be reduced by proper dosage. If that is happening still you need to adjust the dose further until it is gone, not just put up with it.
If winter is creating a state in you,especially one that typically occurs around this season, that may need to be handled seperately from the reasons I gave the Nat-carb.
You are welcome to feedback (or complain) about what is happening, otherwise I will not be able to help.
Both of you have only had one remedy from me each. There are over 5000 other remedies available - you have barely scratched the surface of the help possible with homoeopathy.

Yes I know,
This is like the 5th or 6th one I have been prescribed overall though. My son has had 5. Nothing really happened when I took the remedy. I didn't feel any better, nothing changed. I used 3 dilution cups, same as last time. I did try the 200c with my son, he had some aggravation for a few days...and then went back to exactly the same as before. Looking at my notes on him before I started homeopathy (not with you) back in April, he has remained pretty much the same. Nothing has really changed for the better over the long term, which is discouraging.
Yes, the winter is awful, I have terrible seasonal depression and the cheer of the holidays just seems like a slap in the face to me. I am not cut out for this.

I am in between feeling like yelling and cursing at everyone in my house and crying my eyes out in the dark in my room. I am a terrible mother, what functional one does this. I HATE my brain right now.
I can't be crazy like this...I don't have time for it and there are people relying on me to have it together. It's not fair, this has been my WHOLE life, feeling like this is a cyclical manner. Maybe I AM bipolar, but I don't get to enjoy the manic part of it. Awesome.

My dad did this to a degree, I am just like him, and he treated me horribly, was very verbally and sometimes physically abusive. If I am destined to be the same as him (and I have tried everything except homeopathy which I am trying now), then I don't think I can live with myself. I have so much to contribute to the world, I hate feeling hijacked like this, I can't fight back. Not fair at all.

I am having a few security issues again on our work LAN regarding accessing this site, so I may have some trouble replying today.

Ok they are working on it so lets see how we go.
I am a bit confused about your statement about your son though.
This is the last report made of his progress:
Hand/Foot Cramps - Gone
Night Terrors - 60% better
Moodiness - 75% better
Anxiety - 75% better
Bossiness - 50% better
Getting to sleep - 80% better
Eye Contact - 50% better
Social Response - 60% better
Rigidity - 50% better
Perseveration - 25% better
Choppy Speech - 25% better
Fear of being moved too quickly or turned upside down - 75% better
Neediness - 10% better
Conversational Response - 60% better
Remembering names of familiar people - 25% better
Interrupting - 50% better
Following through on directions - 5% better (?)
Hyperactivity - Same
Stimming (Noises, Running around, jumping, nonsense talk) - Same
Reaction to Misunderstanding - Same (but shorter duration of upset
Has he lost all of these improvements?

Well, yes, he does and then I redose, then (usually) some aggravation, then amelioration until I redose again. Only this time, no aggravation, no amelioration, no nothing I can see. Just full on Asperger's.
Let me add the hand/foot cramps are still gone (I really think they were somehow connected with overdosing on Saccharum).

Wait - after 200c he lost every one of these improvements except for the cramps? Is that what you are saying?
♡ brisbanehomoeopath last decade
There are two explainations for that.
One is that Cuprum was only palliating and the higher dose literally cured that (unlikely).
The other (more likely) is that he is now aggravating again on the 200c, which means his old symptoms will worsen as part of the cure. The remedy creates an artificial version of the disease in a person, a 'similar' state. This will look just like their normal state, but when it lifts it should leave behind a more permanent positive change.
How much water was used this time? How long ago was the dose given? Has he developed any new symptoms?
200c is a big jump from 30c, but there is little choice as most pharmacies do not make the potencies in between.

I gave it to him 5 days ago. I put one drop in 8oz, then 1tsp of that in 4oz, then 1tsp of than in 4oz. 1tsp of third cup in the mouth. No new symptoms, except for the grimacing and frowning a lot, which he used to have well prior to homeopathy, but wasn't prominent on any other remedy. So not entirely new I guess, just strong.

Ok it still sounds like Bryonia to me. You now have many of the emotional characteristics of that remedy, so I don't think you have moved out of that state that accompanied the cold.
Exceedingly irritable
Everything puts them out of humour
Ugly behaviour
Wants to be let alone
Aversion to company
Apprehension and dread of the future
Fear of poverty
Despair of being cured
Very morose, ill-humoured
Quarrlesome
Aversion to being disturbed
Intolerance of contradiction, contradiction = anger
Strong desire for security and support
So I would still suggest getting hold of Bryonia 200c.

Haha...yup...sounds like me. I just didn't get it before because it takes over a week to get here, no where local sells it so I have to order online.
allicando last decade
Just to be clear, since I am now talking about both you you - you I think need Bryonia not him.
It is almost certainly an aggravation for him though. Did we increase the amount of water or just give the same amount as he was using for 30c?
If so then I can only apologize for that - that is carelessness on my part. We should have made a significant change to the dosage - I can become too distracted here by the many disjointed conversation I have with people over many days or weeks.

♡ brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Yes, for me.
I don't think it was changed...I started using 3 dilution cups the last time I gave 30c, I believe, I didn't think I would need more than that for one drop.

It is a very common remedy - I am surprised no-one has it. Can you get 30c now and still order the 200c in?
What I find interesting about Bryonia is the issue with poverty, which is really strong in that remedy, and a really serious problem for yourself. Bryonia is really aggravated by the idea that they cannot support themselves or do not have enough to support them. In the old materia medicas, they talk about this being seen in women in their childbeds (so how will they and their children be supported).
It is possible that when those issues around money and poverty came up they put you into this state, and you haven't really left it.

So, redosing the Nat Carb wouldn't have helped me then...is this just a temporary state and then I will be able to go back to the other? Or am I totally changed for the worse?
I will see what I can find tomorrow, but there are honestly NO places around here that sell homeopathic remedies. There might be one actually, but the selection is very small, I will check.

I cannot predict that. I can only prescribe on what you show me. I don't know what it all means until the remedy works, and then you will tell me.
Bryonia is a very very common remedy. Hopefully it is found somewhere local.

ok, i located it in the only store around here that i thought might have it. They only have it in 30c though. I hope that we can work with that. Otherwise it might take me a while to get it. Is this still ok? I think I am going to get it anyway while I am up here in town, but hope that it will be of use.
Also, received bad reports from my son's teachers at school, about him being 'off', spacey and not understanding what they say. He got really angry about some misunderstanding and flipped out the other day also when I was coming to pick him up. The not understanding or comprehending what people say is new, he has never had a comprehension problem, just not always as responsive. He seems dull and always going on about numbers and the same things over and over.

Please reply when you can.
I was reading that 'Cumprum people are very sensitive to criticism, especially when someone tells them they havent stuck to the rules.' This might explain my son's meltdowns which happened when his teachers told me about a couple instances that happened at school. Before the cuprum, this wouldn't have been likely to happen though, along with the intense frowning and grimacing when upset.
