Convolvulus scammonia

Remedy code: 3-665.76.04.
A 70-year-old woman sits slightly hunched over. She appears open but vulnerable, her face looking distraught, like a person without pretenses. Her daughter accompanies her, gently taking the lead and steering the conversation carefully. They take turns speaking and finishing each other's sentences. Last year, her husband passed away suddenly, and a few months later, her eldest son died after a long illness. She spent weeks by his bedside, and now she feels like she cannot go on anymore. She cannot sleep, cries often, and her mind is in constant chaos. She goes to bed late, lies awake for a long time, and gets up early. She sleeps deeply for a few hours, dreams arise, and she’s always glad when morning comes: coffee! The moment she closes her eyes, the hospital appears before her again, the final hours. The realization hasn’t set in yet; she hasn’t accepted it. Inside, she tells herself, "Stop it, come back." She is now very insecure, unable to make decisions, and questions everything. She was never like this; she used to be "her own boss," but now she needs confirmation. She clings emotionally to her children, who are also frequently with her, and she feels guilty about it. She can still eat and enjoys her food. In the beginning, she felt like it didn’t matter anymore. She is constantly angry at the world and upset over simple things like litter on the street. She gets agitated quickly and sometimes has spontaneous crying fits. She is always tired. In the beginning, she avoided people, refusing to go anywhere because it made her feel rushed. However, when she’s with her daughters, this doesn’t bother her. In the past, she was easily stressed and insecure, and never felt "here I am." She also has high blood pressure, has undergone surgery for an ovarian cyst, and had polyps removed. She stopped taking her medication herself back then. She is deeply attached to her daughters, seeking support. Normally, she puts herself last, always thinking of others, worrying about everything, and ensuring everything goes smoothly and peacefully.AnalysisGold series: Previously independent, her own boss, helpful, chaos in her head.

Phase 7: Loss, it’s over.
Phase 6: Fatigue.
Solanales: Visual imagery, burdensome dreams.
Convolvulaceae: Independence versus dependence, seeking support (previously, she supported everyone), "clinging," relying on her children, with little "self" remaining.
The repertory rubric "aversion company, ameliorate when alone" lists Convolvulus stans (a synonym of Convolvulus scammonia, as per Qjure). Known for sleep problems and nervousness, supporting.
Prescription: Convolvulus scammonia C200.Follow-upAfter taking the remedy, it changed quickly: she was less angry and carried less emotional weight, which her children also noticed. She became calmer, less agitated, and restless. She no longer takes pills to sleep and now sleeps deeply, with vivid dreams as always. She no longer frequently checks the clock. When she closes her eyes, she no longer relives the "film" of the hospital. Her children say, "You’re fun to be around again." Sometimes she still has a dip, gets angry over nothing, and feels tense and grumpy. She remains tired. With distractions, she does well, such as going out with her children. The fatigue has been present since ‘everything fell apart’, and she had nothing left; she still forced herself to get out of bed. She no longer asks for her children’s company every day because it makes her feel guilty. She now talks about the past, which the family sees as confirming the Class and Phase. In the past, she always put herself last and had to do everything alone. Her mother died suddenly when she was 30, and she almost died herself. Her mother had been sick her whole life, often bedridden or in the hospital. It was a miracle she was born because her mother had been abused by her father as a child, so badly that she wasn’t expected to have children. Her mother’s mother had died young, and her father couldn’t bear her resemblance to her mother. Later, her father remarried someone who was very distant.
Her history: Father (Phase 7), Mother (Phase 6), Stepmother was distant (Phase 6, Stadium 04). This could also be reversed: Mother’s death (Phase 7), not being recognized by the father (Phase 6). Violence, shadow, having to do everything alone: Lanthanide themes, analogous to Gold series. After three months, she reported being satisfied and doing well. The only thing that doesn’t fade is the grief and the loss. She has crying fits and wants to throw something (but doesn’t: "You have to clean up the mess yourself"). Sitting still for too long makes her restless; she always needs to move. When she becomes restless, she says, "I need to go home; I want to leave." Her family notices she looks pale and tired at these times. "What still makes me angry is litter on the streets, injustice, but doesn’t everyone feel that way?” She feel injustice a lot with animals, she don’t watch the news. Things are going well; she no longer gets stuck and sleeps a lot. She is processing everything, but her energy doesn’t improve. She is always focused on doing good and helping. This aligns more with Stage 7 (within the same family), so she is given Merremia peltata C200, after which her energy improves.
