Man, 22 years old, autism, PDD nos.A diagnosis of ADHD was initially considered at age eight, but he became hyperactive on Ritalin. Further examination by a neurologist led to a diagnosis of Gilles de la Tourette. He is Christian, and someone prayed for him at a Christian camp. At age fifteen, he was healed of Gilles de la Tourette by God. At that same age, he was diagnosed with autism and PDD-NOS, which became more evident. At 21, he was diagnosed with burnout and complex PTSD.
From the age of eight, he was treated with 40 different medications, including antidepressants that made him feel like a "zombie," and many other psycho-pharmaca. He now experiences restlessness and flashbacks as his main symptoms. His restlessness has been his main complaint.
He gets headaches when stressed, starting at the back of his head and extending to his forehead and eyes, with a sharp, cutting pain, like from a knife. His jaws feel stiff and tense, and he experiences shortness of breath with the headache. Showering and relaxing ease his headaches.
A diagnosis of ADHD was not established.

MindHis emotions are intense and often overwhelming for others. He experiences alternating cheerful and depressive moods, feeling trapped and restricted. He craves freedom and becomes easily stressed, especially around people. He finds relaxation challenging. He feels drained from antidepressants; he has not taken since the age of 21 and has little trust in psychiatrists because of a lot of bad experience with them. Thoughts of death occasionally arise, especially in connection to his grandparents, with whom he shared a close bond.
He has one good friend, whom he meets mostly via games on the internet. His friend is also introvert and autistic.
He has no girlfriend as he cannot find the right one.

DreamsHe dreams of control, entertainment, and amusement but has also had dreams of being trapped in a labyrinth, unable to open his eyes, and needing to flee from something. This last type of dream occurred only when he was still living with his mother.

FamilyHe is the oldest of two siblings. He has limited contact with his mother, whom he suspects has narcissistic tendencies. Interactions with her cause him significant stress. His father was very controlling and suppressive. His parents divorced when he was six. He was very angry at his mother as she left the family.

WorkHe is establishing his own tiny-living company. He trained as a carpenter and is currently on social welfare. The business launch is progressing slowly as he has yet to fully recover from burnout and complex PTSD. He is meticulous in his work, needing everything to have a designated place.

Pregnancy labourHe was conceived via in vitro fertilisation and was born prematurely due to a lack of nutrition in utero. He had to stay in an incubator for a few days.

BodyHe feels worse around the full moon, becoming more agitated and angry with tense muscles and swollen veins. He has no sense of smell.

Follow upAfter 6 weeks things have gradually improved. His headache is gone. He is more relaxed, less stressed, takes more rest. The strong emotions are much less. He has a lot of memories of the past, even a bit more than before, but they are neutral and not loaded with emotions as before.
His business is doing very well.
His Quality of life went from 40 to 60.
Three months later after regular doses of Neolepisorus lancifolius MK he feels much better. The flashbacks are only present sometimes and are not accompanied by heavy emotions anymore. In the past he would have intense grief and weeping, with pain in his chest and a feeling of knives in his body.
His job is developing very well.
His Quality of life went further up to 80.

Later he did also very well on Gelsemium sempervirens. Within a few weeks, he began experiencing deep flashbacks. It was intense and quite daunting. The flashbacks completely took over. He writes: "Some days, I’d wake up at 9:00, go into a flashback, and not come out of it until 4:00 in the afternoon. The rest of the week would feel like a sort of replay, imagining how things might have gone differently. I could genuinely feel the emotions that I hadn’t felt when the events were actually happening. At times, it was as if I, as an adult, were comforting my younger self and feeling the pain he had turned off back then. Variations of this, things I hadn't processed at the time, occurred over the year. Most things I didn't even remember. I remember being told, when I was young, that I never cried. But looking back now, I realise that I didn’t feel the emotions at the time for what I was experiencing. I felt nothing -numb- when shit was happening. I just let it get over me. Not experiencing it and not processing it. Now that I'm older, I see that this was an automatic self-protection. As I am older now, I had to confront it and really feel my emotions. I’d been running from it, constantly keeping myself busy with work and distractions. I was exhausted from constantly working, and I simply couldn’t go on. The rest of the time was brutal: intense headaches, almost daily morning sickness, and those intense flashbacks that I could no longer distract myself from and simply had to endure. It was incredible tough. But I’m so grateful I went through it. I no longer have flashbacks, and if something does trigger me, I might briefly visualise it but can let it go almost instantly. My emotions are much more balanced, and people around me notice a positive change in how I am now. I had no idea beforehand how happy I’d be that I went through with this. I can better rest now, which I had to practice, and I have much more energy and endurance. I still need to be careful not to push too far, but I’m genuinely happy that my mind is functioning well again, allowing me to sustain things longer.”
