Kirsten’s case of recovery
It’s been just over a month since Kirsten first contacted me to get help for her severe depression and anxiety that started after the birth of her second child 15 months ago.
The first interview with a homeopath usually takes anywhere from 1,5 – 2 hours. I spend this amount of time to learn all the detailed information I need to prescribe an individualized remedy that matches the specific symptoms of the anxiety and depression the person is experiencing. I ask about your mental, emotional and physical symptoms to get a full picture of who you are and how I can best help you recover.
Kirsten was experiencing intense symptoms of anxiety and sadness. She had intrusive thoughts that would cause fear, anger and crying throughout the day, evening, and into the night. She was describing feeling out of control, not being able to stop herself from yelling at the kids one minute, to feeling tremendous remorse and guilt with sobbing the next minute. During our conversation Kirsten shed a lot of tears over her desperate situation and the grief she felt in a situation that felt stuck and without hope.
Every “little” thing would set her off and cause the anxiety to skyrocket. She could not tolerate any contradiction from her children, husband, other family members or friends without becoming enraged. Kirsten was feeling isolated, resentful, hopeless, and had thoughts of self harm and running away. She did not really want to run away, but this was the only solution she could think of as she had reached a point where she felt her family would be better off without her.
Based on very specific symptoms Kirsten shared with me during our conversation, emotional and physical, I prescribed the homeopathic remedy that was the best match for Kirsten (there are more than 2000 homeopathic remedies to choose from). I see the majority of my International clients online (also in this case) using Skype or Vsee. After I decide on a remedy for a patient, I call the prescription in to one of the homeopathic pharmacies I trust to deliver the highest quality remedies. The choice of pharmacy depends on where you are located in the world. Once the order is ready, the patient calls in to provide their shipping and payment info to the pharmacy, and the remedy is usually received within a few days.
Kirsten received and took her remedy 5 days after her consultation with me.
I received an e-mail from Kirsten just 4 days after she had taken the remedy. She was describing feeling very calm in the midst of having to pack up and leave due to a natural disaster heading towards her area. She was baffled by this new sense of not feeling panicky and anxious in a situation where she would normally have gone unhinged. We stayed in touch by e-mail a couple of more times over the next four weeks before our scheduled follow-up appointment.
Follow-up after four weeks:
Feeling calm, so calm, and no anxiety or depression at all. My husband is confirming the huge changes in me. We have gone through one of the most dramatic experiences we have had together, and I have never felt this calm. Like I could think clear and make decisions each day without freaking out. There have been so many situations over the past few weeks that I would not have been able to handle before…and now I just say “ok…no problem…we can deal with this… First week I was sort of waiting for the anxiety and depression to return, looking for the feeling and not understanding where it had gone. It was a really weird experience to have it change so quickly. Sleep is much better. Actually the kids sleep better and longer in the morning as well. I used to wake up at 4am every night and get up at the crack of dawn. Now I sleep though until 7 or even 8. Maybe the kids sleep better because I am more relaxed.
We have a new appointment scheduled in another 4 weeks. I did not see a need to repeat the remedy at this time since Kirsten is doing so great. Kirsten had a total of two doses of her remedy during the four weeks.

FAQ:
Can I use homeopathy while taking conventional drugs?
Homeopathy is safe to use alongside conventional drugs, including SSRI’s. As the homeopathic remedy begins to restore balance within the body and self-healing starts taking place, the amount of conventional medications will often need to be adjusted, reduced or stopped all together. Reducing any current allopathic medications must always be done in close consultation with your medical doctor and homeopath.
