Anxiety or anguish is an emotion that appears when the person feels threatened by an external or internal danger. It is, in fact, a normal response of the organism that occurs when facing a threat. However, if the symptoms persist over time or are of high intensity, we can speak of pathological anxiety, a pathology that limits personal freedom.
Do you suffer from anxiety? You can go to homeopathy to relieve stress and anxiety through different homeopathic medicines. Alberto Sacristan Rubio, president of the Spanish Society of Homeopathic Medicine, tells you what they are and how they can be useful to you.
Homeopathy tips against stress
The diagnosis of anxiety is not always easy. The patient usually comes with non-specific symptoms: such as a feeling of restlessness, restlessness, dizziness, headaches, palpitations, a feeling of shortness of breathe. A differential diagnosis is necessary to discriminate diseases with the same symptoms.
From the point of view of homeopathy, the treatment of anxiety with homeopathic medicines is very useful and can be used at different stages of life. Homeopathic medicines are safe and have no side effects so patients do not experience loss of concentration or drowsiness as can occur with anxiolytics and sedatives. In addition, they are very useful for those patients who are already taking an anxiolytic (benzodiazepines) and want to stop taking it.
