I
Know I ought to love my children and my husband. I used to love them.
But now I have no feeling on the subject.”
- “The sepia” Lectures
on Hom. Materia. J.T.Kent.
The
adaptability of the great women’s remedy “sepia” is
poor in normal input and becomes even adverse disturbing emotional, intellectual
or physical levels.
Hence
in emotional level we find apathy, indifference, listless and in physical
level we find all the activities are slow and sluggish.
The
remedy seems to abolish the ability to feel natural love, to be affectionate.
The love does not go forth into affections, there is lack of realization.
The
striking feature of this remedy is that, all affections are stilled. An
absence of all joy. The best impression of her is lost if controversy
arises. Aversion to ones occupation and family. Great irritability alternate
with indifference. Fretful and out humor for all business.
Breaks
out in spells of weeping, is sad one minute, gentle, yielding and in another
she is disagreeable, excitable and obstinate.
You
do not know what she is going to do next.
She
says and does strange things. Aversion to family, to those loved best.,
to sympathy, to company, yet dreads to be alone. Stifled affections.
Frets
and cries about her real and imaginary illness. Weeps when telling her
complaints. Takes pleasure in teasing others. Sits quietly and answers
in yes or no.
Women
hate men and men hate women. Breaks down in spells of weeping.
Every
few minutes inclined to cry without knowing the cause.
Fits
of weeping with violent burst of anger and furious gesticulations.
Heavy
flow of ideas, inability for mental activity. No desire to work. Inattentive,
absent minded, indolent mood.
Great
indifference to everything, no proper sense of life. Great indifference
to everything, death of a near relative or some happy occurrence, leaves
her equally unaffected. No trace of her former love for friends or even
for her children. Irritable, vexed, discontented with the past, present
and future..
