Stramonium
Stramonium is used in the treatment of fear, anxiety and panic disorders, such as PTSD and panic attacks. Interestingly, it is also used in the treatment of many childhood acute ailments that are accompanied by its characteristically intense fear and restlessness. The Stramonium picture produces sharp, intense and even violent symptoms that include night terrors, fear of the dark, fear of danger, delirium and hallucinations. There is also violent thirst and dryness of the mouth, lips and throat. The face becomes bright red and the eyes are dilated and wild looking, a picture often seen in children acutes or anyone experiencing a panic attack.

Arsencium Album
Arsenicum is often indicated in the treatment of anxiety when accompanied by marked fear, restlessness and irritability. The central theme of Arsenicum is a feeling of being too weak to survive a world that is both chaotic and threatening. In this context, Arsenicum types feel overwhelmed with vulnerability and have a tendency to lean heavily on others for support, which can lead to overbearing dependency. Other characteristic symptoms include fastidiousness, a preoccupation with death and dying, and lots of fears that include cancer, disease, robbers and poverty.

What are homeopathic remedies made from?
Homeopathic remedies are made from natural substances, whether animal, mineral, plant or imponderable. All homeopathic remedies which have been identified for use have undergone a series of dilutions and succussions (shaken) to make various potencies for prescription use. The repetition of this particular process eventually dilutes the original substance beyond its physical form and it is still scientifically unknown how this can work.

But this remedy preparation process has remained unchanged since its inception. For over 200 years homeopathic treatment has focused on a system that is safe, nontoxic and free from side effects, under-pining the well-being of the many people who have and who continue to use it. The observations of hundreds of thousands of homeopaths and the satisfaction of millions of patients who have used homeopathy from around the world indicates the true success of this holistic medical system.
