Hello doctor,
Just wanted to let you know my current condition:

few days ago there was a huge anxiety/restlessness(intolerable) about me joining school and doing good in school but now the anxiety has been lessened by 40-50% . (I am not sure about the reason, whether its the remedy or the reason that I don't need to join school any sooner. But most probably its the remedy that acted over anxiety)

If there is less anxiety there is a good sleep or no disturbed sleep.

Confidence on speaking (improved by 10-20% than last time)

Yesterday there was a terrible headache but its not there today.

Cannot see or hear anything related to mental diseases. (not improved)

Fear of going insane. (same as before or not sure)

Get nervous while talking to anybody (relatives or friends). Cannot make eye contact easily. (slightly improved like 10-20% )

Cannot handle criticism, contradiction and insult. (same as before)

Feel depressed when somebody lets me feel that I am a failure or loser. Or somebody is not satisfied with my work. (not improved from the beginning)

heaviness inside head is still there.

Timidness (improved by 10-20%)

No freshness or excitement inside mind. Not excited about doing anything or anything about future. Don't feel happy. Bored most of the time

Can't tolerate if anyone wants to control me(specially by husband or my brother) (not improved from the beginning)

Back pain (improved by 20-30%)

No more imagination about anyone's death(closed ones or the persons whom I know) but still I avoid to hear any bad news (death news) (my mind does not want to accept the fact of death, I don't know why)

No more common cold

I had little argument with my husband and became depressed again. I feel like I am a puppet of him. My head is heavy. Low energy.

I actually left instructions for you last night when I checked your thread. However it appears the poor internet connection I was working with meant it didn't save.

Repeat the dose right away. It has been long enough now since the first dose.

Thank you doctor for your reply.

I want to be cleared about few things before I take the second dose.

As I already have mother tincture prepared last time, do I need to hit the bottle of the tincture again 2 times on my palm (It will be a 4 hits if I do so). OR can I just put a drop in the water without hitting again on the palm ? Please clarify.

How much water should I take to put one drop of the tincture this time ?

I believe, after the drop, I should stir it well and take just a teaspoonful. Is this correct ?


I want to be specific about the guidelines before taking any medicine :)

What can't I eat or drink besides Coffee and Mint ?
I do not take alcohol but sometimes friends insist to have some wine. Can I have wine or Coke when I am under the remedy ?
Will perfumes antidote the remedies ?

awaiting your prompt reply.
Thank you
 
Trishna last decade
The bottle I had you prepare is not a mother tincture. It is simply the dosing bottle (mother tincture refers to the original preparation made from the raw substance, from which all potencies of that remedy are made)

That aside, you MUST hit the bottle twice each time you take a dose, unless I ask you to hit it a different number of times.

You can just use the same amount of water as before.

Stir well and take a teaspoon. Exactly as before.

You can eat or drink anything you want. Coffee or mint is irrelevent, you can take those substances. You can drink wine or coke and you can wear perfumes. None of these things affect treatment.

The only things that can interfere are medical treatments taken to specifically suppress symptoms.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
So this means I can use the remedy from the last bottle and don't need to prepare another one(new dose). Just need two times hits again.

I hope I got it right. :)

Thanks for so much of information. I am glad I am learning homeopathy side by side.

Its been 5 days since I have taken the second dose of the remedy. This time I am having more aggravation than that of the first dose.
Sometimes its unbearable and feels like I am gonna have breakdown. Sometimes I feel I will go insane right away. Sometimes I feel so much fatigue and also weakness in legs and I don't feel like get up from the bed and move. I am having so much tightness inside my head with some burning sensation which is really bothersome. Even then I am having patience and I have been tolerating all these things just because of the hope that I may be healed once these aggravations stop.
Please suggest if this is unusual.
 
Trishna last decade
Aggravation usually starts within the first 3 days. It may continue for up to 7 days after the dose then should diminish.

The fact your aggravation is so strong means we do not have the dose correct. We need to do more diluting which will diminish both intensity and length of the reaction.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Is this feeling of breakdown an aggravation or am I developing something new inside me ? Its not lessening with time and because of it I am feeling physically and mentally weak. Will this also be over in few days time ?

Get well soon Dr. David. We are eagerly waiting for your sooner recovery. We need your advice here. You are a great homeopath. I wish your sooner recovery to recover us.
 
Trishna last decade
How did the aggravation proceed?

How did the aggravation proceed?

First of all thanks for coming back.

It was very hard to tolerate the Nervous Breakdown feeling as it was bothering me physically and mentally. It was there for about a week or so. It got better slowly though. I am much better than what I was initially on few things.

Few days ago I thought my confidence also was improved, but now I figured out I am still extremely fearful about taking any new tasks and take any decisions. My family is giving me pressure to proceed on school enrolling things. And I don't think I can handle any extra pressure or burden. I have to join school soon but I still don't have courage to take the responsibility. I still am extremely nervous about taking classes and performing good on those as I used to do when I was a student back home. I am extremely fearful about Failure and about Making Mistakes. When I am fearful my heart beats fast, feel tightness inside heart, weakness on legs, heaviness inside head, feel bit dizzy. I don't have willpower, I am not excited about my school going things rather I am nervous. And this nervousness is so miserable

Present Condition:

Fear of hearing bad news improved by 30-40% than last time.

Fear of Own Death 70% improved.

Fear of Insanity- Improved by 50-60%

Anxiety- Anxiety and Nervousness is there because of the lack of confidence and upcoming responsibility.

I still avoid to hear bad news about anyone's health or death (back home) but I am less fearful than before.

I cannot talk to people confidently because of fear of making mistakes)

Irritation/anger - increased lately. Feeling some pressure on heart.

.
Back Problem- improved by 20%


Right now my Nervousness is bothering me a lot (I am still shaking a bit inside) than any other things. Please help.
 
Trishna last decade
Alright the next step is to get hold of Lithium carb 1M. Check in with me when you have received it.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
I am trying hard to get hold of 1M potency but none of the stores here have that potency available. If I order online it will take another 5-6 days or more to reach it to me, as its weekend now. I doubt I can wait that longer. Please suggest, if there is any other option?

Trishna last decade
No other option. Either Lith-c is your remedy or it is not. The only way to know for sure how far it will take you is to move up in potency. You cannot replace the right remedy with another.

This will always be the limitation of treatment over a forum like this. One of the reason you employ a practitioner face-to-face is you have access to their medicine stock and don't need to wait as you do here. There is no way around it.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Dear doctor,
Thank you for the explanation.

I did not mean to change the remedy, infact I wanted to ask you if the earlier potency(200) of Lith-C can be used one more time, if in case of urgency.

Since I was experiencing so good feeling till yesterday morning with the 200 potency, I was wondering if I can use the same potency one more time as I will not have the 1M any sooner. I have already ordered 1M and I will receive it in few days time, if we can use it for the next time. What do you suggest ?

Thank you

Then I misunderstood your report. If your symptoms have relapsed, rather than there being no further progress, you can repeat the remedy. However you MUST alter the dose. How much water did you use last time to dilute the drop in?
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
I used 1/4 cup of water last time.

let me tell you few more things here that I am experiencing:

The constant tightness in the heart is a new thing for me. Its been there for the last two days.

I was nervous to take any new tasks but I never had experienced this much of extreme nervousness and irritation before. This kind of nervousness with breakdown feeling started at the time of aggravation after the 2nd dose. However it lessened and was not bothersome after a week or so but now I am again having extreme nervousness since yesterday. This is really unbearable and sometimes its like emergency situation. I feel my body is shaking from inside out.

All other fears are not there now or may be hidden at the moment.

I am really worried, Please suggest further.

Dear Doctor,

Please suggest what should I do further ? I am not able to sleep well because I am too much scared thinking about starting my school going process. Still am very nervous.
 
Trishna last decade
Should I take the remedy Lith-C 200 again and in how much amount of water this time ?
 
Trishna last decade
Repeat the dose in a full cup (250mls) of water.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
Hello doctor,

I received Lithium-Carb 1M yesterday. Do I need to wait for few more days before I take it ?
Its been 10 days now since I have taken the third dose of Lithium-Carb 200. This time my aggravation was not very intense. My condition of becoming extreme nervous while thinking or talking about the school joining thing has been improved by 40-45% than that of last time. My overall condition after Lith-Carb, has been improved but still I cannot say its a huge improvement or a little.

My present condition is:

-The tightness in heart area (which I think is new for me after taking Lith-Carb) is not going away. This tightness/heaviness has been increased lately and is bothering me. I hope I am not getting any heart problems.

. My anger and irritation have been increased than last time.

I am again having dull headache and burning feeling inside head.

Memory problem increased than last time. Sometimes while I talk I stuck in a sentence to find a correct word even if the word is very simple.

Poor concentration power

Its still very difficult to see or hear about any psychological problems on any person or I cannot see or hear any news or movies which have any psychological issues in them. If I see those, I feel as if I am going to be insane too. I cannot see any disturbing videos or scenes.

-I still have sleeping problems. I sleep well for the first two or three days after I take the remedy but after that so many running thoughts on my mind keep me from sleeping for long time. Or if I sleep on time, I wake up suddenly after one hour or so and cannot fall back to sleep for long time.

Back problem not improved much from last time.

I have a new issue of having pain on a joint of my left hand's forefinger. Its been there for the past few days.

I am better if I am with someone or I am outside home. But I think a lot about my disease when I am alone which makes me very sad and pathetic.

Cannot see in people's eyes while talking. Feel nervous and too shy.

I do not think much about dead people. Or the thoughts of dead persons do not bother me that much now.
 
Trishna last decade
Can you clearly list the improvements too.

Looking at that list I wonder that you think Lithium carb is working at all. I need to see all the improvements as well to be able to judge it properly.
 
brisbanehomoeopath last decade
When I am on aggravation almost all my major conditions relapse. like fear of death, fear of hearing bad news, fear of going insane, nervousness, timidity etc. It remains there for a week or so. After that, some of my conditions improve for a week or so then again I think those relapse or one of the problems come in the front and I get very much bothered by that particular issue and my mind concentrate on that only so I cannot tell that all other issues are hidden, gone or still there. I become so much confused.

Improvements:
Well, before the third dose I had the issue of extreme nervousness which now has been improved by about 50-60%
- Foggy head improved by 50-60% (overall)
-Back problem improved by 30-40% (overall)
- Confidence level before few days (increased by 40%-overall)
-Depression improved by 50% (overall)
-memory problem improved by 20-30% (overall)
- Do not get much upset thinking about dead people. their memories don't scare me much now.
- closed and tight space don't bother me much now.

-Tightness in heart area (it was not there before , now I find sometimes its increased sometimes decreased, I think it increases with the stress level).
- Fear of insanity is now bothering me a lot.
Now in my view the effect of the third dose is not there anymore.
 
Trishna last decade
Dear doctor, what further instruction is there for me? Please advice.
 
Trishna last decade
Dear doctor, my condition has been deteriorating for the past two days. Please suggest me something or if I can take another dose of Lith carb again. This depression is killing me. I am so restless. I am feeling so much weakness on me. Please suggest asap. Please I have to take care of my daughter and I am not feeling well. Please help.
