A comprehensive self-help guide to the common psychological illness problems which cause misunderstanding, alienation, frustration and unhappiness, written by a homoeopathic medical doctor who is also a psychiatrist. Homoeopathy acts deeply upon the mind, helping to loosen rigid defensive patterns and release blocked areas of repression. These include emotions and memories, together with their intrinsic energy which in the past may have undermined physical health and drained energy reserves. It improves perspectives, reducing tension and anxiety levels, calming phobic fears and restores balance. It helps bring any underlying anguish or discord, memories and association back to the surface. In this way they can become integrated into a more meaningful whole and a less distorted emotional approach to life. General topics discussed include: homoeopathy and psychological health; advice on taking homoeopathic remedies. For each topic discussed, a listing and description of remedies is given, also a discussion of the main character traits which may aggravate the condition and a separate section on the more practical steps to improve things. Case reports and studies are also listed to give a better understanding of the problem and how best to make changes. Specific topics discussed include: agitation; alcohol-related illness; anorexia nervosa; anxiety states; confidence loss; confusional states; delusions; depression; diet and nutrition; crug-related illness; drug withdrawal; fear states; hallucinations; hysteria; indecent exposure; manic-depressive psychosis; mental illness; obsessional illness; panic attacks; paranoia; phobias; psychosis; puerperal psychosis; schizophrenia; senile confusional states; short fuse irritability; suicidal thoughts and impulses; tension states; toxic states; and violence.
