“You are Crazy” ; “It’s figment of your imagination”

“You are crazy”; ‘Its figment of your imagination”, have you been told something like this by a doctor, even by family and friends when you tried explaining a strange or queer symptom you have been experiencing and you were at your wits end because nobody understood you!

Don’t despair, you are not alone.

I had case of a colleague (not into homoeopathy) who had consulted me few years ago for severe acidity. Before the onset of the acidity attack he said “I can hear a sound, a crackling sound in the head, as if the corner edge of a paper being flipped”.

I responded by saying WOW!!! This is a fantastic revelation; this symptom may help me zero-in the right remedy for you.

My reaction surprised my colleague and he remarked “Ah! Really!?, At last I know I am not insane” he continued “I have told this symptom to all the doctors I consulted so far and all they had said to say was that it is a figment of my imagination, and one of them even suggested that I could visit a psychiatrist to deal with the crackling sound, while he will take care of my acidity" (obviously with antacids).

Your homeopath will be the happiest to hear your weirdest, queerest or peculiar symptom or sensation you have been experiencing. It only means that you are listening to the clues being given out by your mind and body to help you get well. You are never ‘Crazy’ to a homoeopath, as the real crazy ones will never be able to articulate their symptoms. You are only helping the homoeopath to discover ‘the remedy’ that will restore you to health.

Homoeopathy is the only system I know which takes cognizance of the weirdest of sensation as this helps them select ‘The Right Remedy’ from its armory of over 3000 + remedies.

So, when you consult a homoeopath, do disclose the queerest of symptom or sensation you may be experiencing both at mind and body level. You will be helping yourself to a speedy restoration to health by doing so. I have listed below few examples of symptoms which are strange and hence in many instances remain unexpressed by many.

Read each symptom by suffixing ‘Sensation as if…’

Fr. Britto Joseph S.J. - Empowering Health Care

Meet my first Guru who reignited my latent passion in nature consonant medicine. Fr. M. Britto Joseph s.j. a Jesuit Priest, belonging to the Madurai Province, is credited with evangelizing and proselytizing Naturopathy and Homoeopathy in India. Affordable and safe health-care has always been a need and it still continues to be a necessity for the majority of the population (middle-class and rural) in India, a country where major share of one’s earning is spent on housing and food, savings are meager, often liquidated by medical and hospitalization expenses. Families often end up in huge debt. A country that enjoys a rich heritage medicine system in the form of Ayurveda and Naturopathy is today a victim of lifestyle diseases that is only burdening the existing inadequate health-care facilities in India. It is against this background we can come to appreciate the value of Fr. Britto’s mission. Fr. Britto has done a yeoman service through his mis...

Drug Interaction and its side effects - Is your doctor factoring drug interaction while prescribing?

In the US, 3 to 7% of all hospitalizations are due to Adverse Drug Reactions (ADR). ADRs occur during 10 to 20% of hospitalizations; about 10 to 20% of these ADRs are severe. If countries like USA which has a stringent food and drug administration get millions of patients who suffer adverse drug reaction then the scale of adverse drug reaction in a populous country like India, where controls are lax and reporting tardy. This would be a similar story in other developing and under-developed nations. The most common categories of drugs withdrawn in the last decade ( Developed Countries) were non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (28%), anti-diabetics (14.28%), anti-obesity (14.28%), antihistamines (14.28%), gastroprokinetic drugs (7.14%), breast cancer and infertility drugs (7.14%), irritable bowel syndrome and constipation drugs (7.14%) and antibiotics (7.14%). And it takes 3-5 years for a drug to be banned in India after it has been banned in other countries. I...

Right Labor ≅ Right Exercise ≅ Right Vocation ≅ Right Health

"I have no more than twenty acres of ground," he replied, "the whole of which I cultivate myself with the help of my children; and our labor keeps off from us the three great evils - boredom, vice, and want." ~ Voltaire Life and labour are synonymous. But we are trading our wealth for labour. People who do not do physical labour are considered privileged and those who have no option but engage in physical labour are considered unlucky. What we need to be aware of is that too much labour kills and that too little labour also kills. Each person should find according to his constitution how much labour and what kind of labour is best suited for his temperament. We need to choose the right labour –for our body, mind and soul... The health of our cells depends not just on the nutrition we get from our diet, the stimulation it gets from various form of exercise but also from the intellectual and spiritual nourishment it gets as part of the process of its...
