Depression and its Homeopathic Treatment
Do you feel sad tired worried all the day? And are these feelings lasting for more than few days? If yes than you could be suffering from depression. Although life is full of emotional ups and downs and such ?low feelings? are a part of common human experience
but when these feelings increase in duration and intensity and an individual is unable to function as usual, they take the form of an illness often called as Depression or Clinical Depression
In the initial stages or in the milder forms or in people who are not aware of the disease, depression can go unidentified till its implications become too obvious. People often overlook it as a mere ?low mood? or some start assuming it as a part of their psychological makeup. Even families or spouse start accommodating accordingly, thereby making identification of depression all the more difficult.
What are the signs of depression?
Following are the symptoms of depression and if three to five or more of the following symptoms which persist for more than 2 weeks, there are chances that one might be suffering from depression.
Persistent low or sad mood, Loss of interest or pleasure in activities including sex. Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, helplessness, hopelessness, pessimism .Sleeping too much or too little, often feeling tired and feeling “slowed down?. Suicidal thoughts and attempts. Restlessness, irritability, anger and excessive weeping. Having difficulty in concentrating and application of mind.
What are the causes of depression?
There can be different reasons for different individuals suffering from it. Changes at the biochemical levels in the brain are responsible for some forms, People having too much or too little of these bio-chemicals called ?Neuro-transmitters? can lead to depression. .Genetic factor also plays an important role in the causation. Difficult life events e.g. loss of loved one, divorce, financial problems etc. can contribute to the onset of depression. Nearly twice as many women as men are affected by a depression. Depression frequently co-occurs with other physical illnesses, including heart disease, stroke, cancer, and diabetes Alzheimer?s.
Treatment with Homeopathy
Clinical depression is very much treatable with homoeopathy. Early treatment is more effective and helps prevent the likelihood of serious recurrences. Homoeopathic medicine Ignatia Amara, leads the homoeopathic table in treating depression. For patients requiring Ignatia, the key indications are
Persistent dull mood, inability to enjoy, tearful, non communicative and withdrawn. It is very useful in depressions arising after grief and mental shocks. Aurum Metallicum is indicated in cases where suicidal thoughts and tendency is present. Natrum Mur and Carcinocin are often employed to treat chronic and serious forms of depression.
Words of caution ? medicines mentioned above are for information purpose only and should not be used without professional help.

Homeopathy is much more of a choice than people often think it to be. One of its philosophy’s greatest breakthroughs is the realization that the body is not an object but a process with no pre-ordained limits. The scorching, cruel heat of summer was just setting in the first year of the new century

B. Rahamthulla,
I’m sorry you’re feeling so badly. Have you considered Aurum Metallicum? Usually sucidal ideation is a factor in choosing this remedy from what I’ve learned. Of course, continue working with your psychiatrist, but let him know you’re interested in trying homeopathy to accompany or even eventually replace your medications. Consult a homeopath for more guidance.

Sir,
I am a 26 year old man and i am suffering from depressoin for last three years. I didn’t take any action till last year because i could not identified the lack of mood as a dipression. For last one year, i have been consulting a docter, which initially felt me relief, but now doesn’t seem to be working. The whole day i feel depressed and my self confidence have become very less. I am also having memory loss. Is there any way in homeopathy to cure this?
I am 29 years old woman and I am suffering from Depression for 15 years. I took Medicine prozac 20 mg for one year three years ago. I didn’t help me. Now I have memory Problem. Is there any way in homeopathy to cure this?
MY DAUGHTER IS SUFFERING FROM DEPRESSION FOR LAST 2 YEARS.SHE HAS BEEN SEEN TO A PSYCHIATRIST.SHE IS GOING THROUGH MEDICATION SINCE 2 YEARS.BUT THE MEDICATION DON’T SEEM TO WORK.MOREOVER HER PROBLEMS HAS RISEN MORE.NOW SHE IS NOT ABLE TO LIVE ALONE WITHOUT HER PARENTS.SHE FEELS UNCOMFORTABLE IN A CROWDY PLACE.SHE IS NOT ABLE TO MIX WITH ANYONE WHICH IS NEW TO HER.SHE FEELS THAT SHE IS TORTURE WHEN SHE GOES IN COLLEGE FOR STUDIES THAT’S WHY SHE IS NOT ABLE TO GO TO COLLEGE.SHE ALWAYS GET IRRITATED IN SMALL THINGS.SHE THINKS THAT EVERYONE DON’T UNDERSTAND HER NOT EVEN HER PARENTS.SHE GETS HURT AND SOMETIMES SHE GETS TOO SCARED THAT WHAT TO DO.SHE THINKS THAT HER PARENTS ARE NOT WITH HER AND SHE IS NOT ABLE TO DO ANYTHING HERSELF.SHE THINKS THAT SHE IS GOING MAD.PLEASE SUGGEST HER A MEDICINE.
only solution for this is if you find anything which makes you feel tough,not possible just don’t do it. Just try to do some thing which helps in your mood.
Be active, try to mingle with people, just tell everything which you want to tell to somebody who will listen to you. Just don’t think what’s going to happen tomorrow just live for this moment. Try to enjoy every moment of your life,life is precious. Forget that you’re depressed, just try to be like a bird.
Don’t care about anybody or anything if you want to do just do it and enjoy it.
Love this world and also yourself.
As a medicine you can try Hypericum which helps in depression.
More than medicine everything is in your hand. You should get control on your mind.

I was diagnosed with depression two years ago. I am 74 years old, health and very high energy. When I plummeted into depression I did not know what semi-truck had struck me down. I am not sure what the cause, but the fact that i am the major care giver to my husband who has been in a dementia since 2003.
the point of my question is that at this time, I am having dental implants placed to replace old dental work. the orthodontist has had me discontinue the use of the anti depression. The process of the implant adhering to the bone is interferred by the antidepressant.
He has suggested that I look into a homeopathic replacement while all this work is being done (probably 8 months).

depression is cure only for cbt and psychotherapy
In my openion Allopathic medicines are also useful to treat the disease. But most of the time the behaviour of family persons become very negative towards the patient. Mechanical negativity of family members, terror of the patient behaviour and a depressive attititude of family members add fires in depression. Many things in my mind are to cope with depression are:
1- Dont let allow the children in egositic atmosphee.
2- Timely marriage with the loving mate should be welcomed.
3- Clear cut division of property should be cleared to the youngsters.
4- You should train your son/daughterto be more independent to their parents.
5- Psychiatrists behaviour should also be like a healer. Only money making doctors dont care the side effects of antysychotic, mood stabiliser, sleeping medicines. They should be aware of the ill effects of these medicines.
6- Homeopoathic, Herbal, Unani etc medication should also run in parellal to these medications. It is not bad to have homeopathic medicines for 3-5 years but allopathic medicaitons brings much disasters ot the many parts of the body. But homeopaths should be of A1 quality. Problem with the todays homeopath is that they are giving homeopathic medicines in allopathic way.
7- Psychological councelling is necessary, but if not available family members should change their style of behaving with the patient as well as with themselves. Their priority should be human being not status, wealth, job and this should be shown in their behaviour.
Thanx
Mostly Hindu, Muslims and other religious people do some chanting of Ayaats of Quran, Veda etc. Such chanting disturb their Chakra system. Such chakra system is normally not 100% curable by medicines. You may get help from the people of this area. And you have to believe only on that person who has good track record. But dont waste your money on 420 people in this line.
I was suffered from OCD, generilized axiety, religious phobia and depression since last 4years. I tried several alopathic medicines which helped me to some extent but discontinued due to sever side effects.

i am a depressed person for a long time now but i don,t know when it all began.my face had a resemblence with one of the comedians in the indian film industry.from then on people use to call me buy his name.this started at the age of 13.i think i am basically a very sensitive prson.so i coudn,t accept this at that age or at any age as a matter of fact.slowly i withdrew from the mainstream for the fear of sarcasm.i never minkled with the opposite sex properly and now i find my mind being filled with anxiety and fear whenever i need to face women especially young girls.my confidence have all gone now and also my belief in god has also declined to the bottom since the last 2 yrs.this was mainly because after yrs of mental suffering i one day decided to leave home and join an asram some 300 kms from my home.i hoped things might improve for me in the asram.but it went the other way round.instead of diciplining my mind i was forced to do work which they call’seva’.i am doing this heavy ‘seva’ for the last 2nd a half yrs.i am really fed up now.but when i think of going back home where i sufferd termendously for some 30 yrs since my birth i think it is better to do ths bloody ‘seva’ n hang on.if i get out again questions of job,marraige etc would come up.i don’t think i am mentally prepared for marraige n have little intrest to work.i am caught between the devil n the occean i don’t know what to do.what might be a practical solution.can some body help?
