Sepia

Anyone used it for anxiety? Did it help?

Hi there -I used to take Sepia a lot when i was 'doing'small kids -but mostly when I was irritated and wanted everyone to leave me alone (its a homeopathic dose of squid ink!)and it worked for that.It says in my book good for when 'over- burdened, irritable, indifferent'
Now I use (and make) flower essences but arn't allowed to put a link on here!!(you could try googling Saskia Flower!) and there are some great ones for anxiety- but depends what is causing it. Cherry Plum might be good -pm me if you want more info.

I've found your website I'll have a look!

I've worked out that my anxiety is far, far worse the week before my period. I never used to have such bad PMS but since having DS3 (and being told I had mild PND) I've noticed that all my 'depression' symptoms are far worse when I am ovulating and the week before my period. I've had a terrible week feeling anxious all the time and thinking I can't live like this (but I put that down to DS2 and DS3 having chicken pox, DS3 is only 4 months and he is covered head to toe).

Have you tried evening primrose oil or star flower oil -both are good at helping with PMS - might be worth a go!Lots of women swear by them

I've started taking omega oils and B6 with Magnesium hoping they will help. Apparently takes a couple of months to get into your system though and show results.

The sepia does seem to have helped me a bit as I am much less anxious than I was over the weekend and sleeping a bit better. I do have a homeopath I have seen before so might make an appointment with him if things don't get better. He's helped me in the past. A lot of people think homeopathy is rubbish but I've had good results!

People only think Homeopathy/flower essences are rubbish because they can't get their heads around how they work-people wouldn't still be using them if they didn't work. Also because they are so cheap and easy to make drugs companies constantly do whatever they can to make people believe they don't work so there is no money avaiable for research.....Well thats my opinion anyway -will sit back and wait for everyone else to tell me I'm talking bollocks!!!
