Dr. Saab please: histerical and shy child
We have got stramonium from the doctor, but i'm not sure of this, because my child doesn't fear of the dark. She fears or is very shy in the presence of unknown peers/adults and even if she knows them, doesn't speak to them only if she gets to meet them very often, she is affraid of doing everything that might hurt her, like: climbing, swiming, skating, affraid of needles. Another big problem is that she gets histerical very often an cannot be calmed down for a very long time. When histerical, she wants someone to stay next to her, but doesn't accept hugs, nor anything else to be soothed. It cand take 30 or more minutes for her to accept us to calm her down. And when she accepts us, she wants us to go to the exact place where she began to cry an take her in our arms, if not, anothe histerical crisis begins. What is this?Edit: she doesn't like neither when it is very hot, nor very cold, some clothes bothers her, she says it's itching, i have to cut down every etiquete, she is upset in the morning, when there's no-one next to her, and in the evening, she doesn't wont any of her siblings to be in her dad's arms, she is often thirsty, when go to bed she drinks water.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Hi- I suggest you use your edit button - lower right?
change your headline to Dr. Saab- help with -------
He is very good with children, homeopath 45 years, has
psychological training also. If you see his name on forum
click it and his profile will show up along with click previous
posts ( you can see his results in cases on here)
Just want to say your child is Very smart- bc in psychology where
people have an upsetting experience, they often go thru life
avoiding anything to do with the place, or any sensory input
that may have been at that place- it triggers the initial anxiety.
the brain programs memories of when a person is upset different
than other memories. Those memories unless shaken off
quickly ( like animals shake literally after a scary encounter)
which 'clears the nervous system'--or I myself have been given
ignatia when a couple traumatic things went on and it just
cleared everything as if it was no big deal--within 5 minutes trauma was gone and I got the ignatia about
a day after trauma.
if this is not done psychologists work with people in what
they call ' in vivo' help- they take the person back to original
place over and over so that the new memories of - it is ok-
replace the old ones, and the trauma of the old ones gets
restimulated and removed out of nervous system when doing this
right. So your daughter is having the 'Upsetting experience'
replaced by a 'comforting' experience- rather amazing.

Thank you both for bother answering and for suggestion.
I started Stramonium and there were 3 days she was better, and then everything is as it used to be. I-'ve tried the software on this site and it has chosen Lycopodium for her symptoms. I'd try it, but not sure about potency. Stramonium is C9, once a day, for about 25 days. Before that she had got Ignatia and Chamomilla, both without any relief.

Dear CristinaGoji,
As I understand,your child is very keen on seeking attention & they have many ways to do that.
I do not know in what potency you have given Chamomilla & ignatia.Pl let me know that.
I would suggest you to give one dose (3Pills) of NUX VOMICA 200c at bedtime daily for three days.
I expect this will calm her down & some positive change should come.
Kindly let us know after about 5-6 days & then only we will decide further treatment.
When we (as parents) become anxeious it directly reflects on the child's psyche & they also start throwing tantrums.
So please be calm & have patience.It may take a little time to bring the change.

Thank you Dr. Saab. I'll give her starting from tomorrow. Hope it will work, because her tantrums are breaking me to thousands of pieces. Ignatia was 1M and Chamomilla 200C.
When she is tired usually tantrums occur, i understand that, what I can't stand is the intensity and how much does it take for her to accept me taking her in my arms to confort her, if I go away, she runs after me screaming to take her in my arms, when I want to take her, she opposes me. And it goes on an on about 40minutes. I am very scared about her beeing seriously ill and me not knowing that, because the expresion of her face in those moments is of a really hurted child.

Chamommila & I gnatia are both quite a deep acting medicines & since they have been given in high potency like 200 & 1M perhaps they are showing off in this form. NUX VOM is a very effective antidote for ChMOMMILA so God willing it will work very well.
You need to wait & watch Kindly read my comment in the thread

Thank you dr Saab, she got yesterday the first dose of Nux Vomica. I have also read the topic in your thread, it is interesting, i liked you advice, but it's not our case. She is not the only child, and never have been, because she is the second of three. She has never been separated, on the contrary, because I'm stay-at-home mother, she has been staying at home with me until a last week, when she has started the kindergarden. Her intense tantrums began aprox. at the age of 1, when she has shut the door and didn't let me in for about 30-40 min. and was screaming all this time and didn't let me confort her. But untill this year the tantrums didn't occur this often, now she has tantrums every day, twice or three times a day. Thanks God she is not that shy as she used to be a year ago. Shyness wouldn't be a problem if she didn't suffer. She wanted to play with kids but something within her didn't let her neither accept them, nor her going towards them.
She doesn't lack empathy, I try very hard to be an empathic mum, because I know how important it is for my kids to become moral and good men when adults. Of course sometimes I make mistakes with them, i'm not perfect at all and sometimes it is really hard for me to be empathic, but I' wrking hard on this issue.

What I blame myself for, and what I think might influence he temper, is that I didn't wont her during all my pregnancy with her, I hoped that something would happen and I 'd have a miscariage, I am realy sorry for my feelings during that period of time, but I cannot turn back the time.

It has been about a week since I gave her Nux vomica and she is not better. I've noticed that if she is having an afternoon nap, she doesn't have tantrums.

Dear Cristina,
Sorry for the delayed response since I was away for more than expected period.
I request you NOT to feel guilty about your feelings in past.Feelings are not to be felt bad about so forget all that & come to 'here & now.'
Reg your kid I suppose now you are over doing it & they are very perceptive in knowing this. You just be your normal self
As for medicine I suggest you to give one dose of SILICEA 200c every morning for three days & wait for 15 days & report.
You will have to give time to work, as SILICEA is a slow action medicine.
Do not pamper too much.

Thank you dr. Saab. Meanwhile, there are some changes. She is not histerical anymore, so her intence tantrums might have been due to chamomilla, as you have supposed earlier. However, she has some problems of temper. She loves to disobey, to deffy. When her brother makes something stupid, she says that she also did that, even if she didn't and smiles to me, expecting to see me angry. It is clear on her face that she enjoys driving me crazy http://www.abchomeopathy.com/images/em0001.gifhttp://www.abc.... , she also tell to her friends that she did this or that stupid think, even if she didn't, linkes to play clown for them, all that contrasting with her temper when she is in an unknown company, when she is very shy and all of the present people think she is the most obedient girl. http://www.abchomeopathy.com/images/em0001.gif
So, should I give her Silicea?

She is not always like that, sometimes she loves to make me/her dad/her brother happy, she can be the kindest girl ever, when she wants it, for no hidden reason. It's obvious then, that it's a pleasure for her. She is not expecting any material recompense for her kindness, our happyness is the best recompense. Although she likes to tease her brother, for the sake of teasing, she also cares a lot about him and if someone else, not her, upsets him, she is the one who conforts him. Well, she is full of contradictions and cerainly life wouldn't be that interesting without her ;)

Sorry for the delay in response as I was away.These days my occupancy make me to travel a lot.
Yes, now I feel give her one dose of PULSATILLA 200c & after a gap of about 3 days give her a dose of SILICEA 1000c & forget any further treatment for 15-20 days.
Slowly the improvement will set in.
Have patience & enjoy her company & mischief.
