Depression

• 1

  Try Ignatia. Depression often causes the person to experience mood swings, alternating between tears and laughter fairly often. The homeopathic treatment for this illness is a substance called Ignatia. Experts recommend taking 6c of the medication three times a day.

• 2

  Treat severe depressive feelings with the substance Pulsatilla, which has been shown to help regulate the hormones in the body. This should be taken a maximum of three times a day. Each dose is 6c per person.

• 3

  Give 6c of Sepia to those people who feel irritable, depressed and unlike themselves. This also works well for those who feel they can’t function because of their depression and those who can’t leave their house because of their feelings.

• 4

  Dissolve four capsules of Nat mur under your tongue if you feel suicidal or extremely depressed. This substance comes in a small tablet or capsule form that can be placed under the tongue where it instantly dissolves. Experts recommend taking four capsules three times a day.

• 5

  Take Kali phos, a substance known as a tissue salt if you feel anxious, worried, grief stricken or depressed. A tissue salt comes in a capsule form, which makes it easier to take and determine a dosage. This tissue salt should be taken three times a day. One dose is four capsules.
