A friend said that homeopathic remedies work well for specific emotional issues. From what research i have done online tonight i came up with belladona but i dont know...i know nothing of homeopathy except that you need to tell all symptoms so here are as many as i can think of.
my symptoms are:
anger when waking up
anger when spoken to
anger pretty much all the time unless im alone or sleeping
now and again ill get so angry that ill pace one room for an entire hour and then end up screaming and throwing things, kicking and punching walls.
other symptoms when angry are-
dont like to be touched
severe headache
heavy breathing
pulling hair
muttering
needing to "get out"
onset is sometimes unpredictable- suddently change from being ok to very angry for no reason or for something silly. It is uncontrolable.
I hope i have given enough symptoms.
I have been on over 12 drugs for depression and im never going back there.
Thanks for all you real answeres in advance.

about each of these, how they work, the differences in them, the absorption rate and possible side effects.

Also, if you have information to cite proving your stance, that would be great!

I've so far tried St. Johns wart, 5-htp, kava, sam -e, valerian root, and gaba...not all at the same time, of course, but taken as directed. None of these have helped me much in calming my nerves. Is there anything else I can try? Please help!

Thanks so much!

I would just like some feedback from anyone who has taken this natural homeopathic remedy, and if they found it works. I've started taking it for digestion problems and for stronger hair and better skin. Thanks!

Some herbal remedies are not approved for human consumption even though they have been used traditionally by humans for centuries with very little side effects. One of the herbs I’ve taken works better than a well know medication which has been know to cause bad side effects. Why won’t the FDA approve some things that have well documented histories of human use, but have no problem approving newly developed synthetics?

for hotspot/nerve pain on buttox area. Patient is irritable from pain and is in great deal of pain. Not like sciatica - more like inflammation in the nerve. Skin is not discolored but is very painful to touch.

Arnica's not helping much.

I have to go for surgery to remove a breast lump (not known what it is yet) & I noticed in my surgery package it says to stop taking all medications including herbal supplements 2 weeks before. Do I really have to stop taking my whole food supplement?

I have E.D. and I don't want the embarassment or cost of getting a prescription.

So today I got some over the counter herbal pills for this purpose. Do they work? I got Rize and Stamina-Rx. Do either of these work? If not are there others that you can get over the counter that work?

I get minor ear infectons pretty often due to an old injury to my ear drum. I was wondering if anyone can suggest any natural remedies for the pain. I know there's no miracle cure, but I sure am getting sick of taking tylenol.

I am extremely sensitive to stimulants of all kinds, and so cannot take over the counter decongestants that contain pseudo-ephedra, nor can I take natural remedies that contain ma huang which contains natural ephedra.

When I get a sinus infection or a cold I am absolutely miserable due to the severe congestion.

I've tried nasal irrigation with a neti pot, which only offered very mild relief for a very short period of time. I've also tried this homeopathic nasal spray called Sinus Buster, which uses capsaicin pepper extract and eucalyptus in very dilute amounts. This also offers a small amount of relief for a pretty small amount of time.

Are there any other options out there that have worked for others??
