A friend asked me to post this about her husband. She has no access to a computer so I gathered her info. If more is needed I can easily get it. She is at her wits end and thanks everyone in advance if they can offer help or hope!

I will start with the mentals of the case - they are the most important (to my friend anyway) Please note I am using her words to describe him.

He is a crazy man. Verbally abusive (not physically). VERY CRITICAL of everyone and everything. Nothing is good enough but doesn't do anything for himself. Every little thing is blown way out of proportion. She left a light on and he lost it calling her a worthless piece of ****. She forgot to turn off the television so he hid the remote. He is constantly worried about money and finances. (They are fairly well off) She says he only cares about money. He doesn't take responsability for things that go wrong everything is someone elses fault. He was not like this when they met. This change occured when he had lost some business 4 years ago. He was raised in a loveless and critical home. He is always picking at her over trivial matters. On the other hand he is a good father to his kids. He says he feels dead inside and did get antidepressants which he never took.

He is 36years, 270lbs (He gained about 90lbs over a four year period) 5'11'' Dark complexion. No moles/freckles. Two spots on nails. When he gets ill he suffers from very high fevers and large puss fiiled tonsils.
Has allergies and sleep apnea. Snores so loud he sleeps in the basement. Fairly good physical health. Sees chiropractor for back pain. Oh - also gets a rash on upper thigh about 5x a year. He has a fat, large tongue.

No dreams, or fears(other than losing money)
Craves bread. Eats it at every meal. Also eats very fast and a lot of food.

OOPS didn't mean to submit yet. He sleeps well and soundly. Can fall asleep quickly. also she has never seen his feet??? He alsways keeps them covered!! He had vaccines and occasional antibiotics but no surgery. His father died of alzheimers and was similar in temperment but not to the same degree.

If anyone can offer help you'd be saving a marriage. She says this is a last ditch effort. I think he also does want help - just doesn't believe he will get it. Thanks all in advance.

Psorinum! But i would give ars a ,one m first of all, psor later.

Good point Frank!

Thank you for your replys. GM I will tell my friend to follow your advice. And yes he does want help but doesn't belive there is anything that can help him.

How long after the ars a before the Psorinum? Also he drinks a lot of coffee does he need to stop this during treatment? Thanks Much

GM advises cutting coffee and probably would in this case too. The time span between the arsenicum album and psorinum will be indicated by the symptoms so will probably advise to await responses and post accordingly. Presume GM will confirm above but as still online at this hour thought help out. Ars despairs of getting well and is listed in Synthesis rubric MIND,refuses -treatment - sick, in spite of being very. This would cover his attitude to help very well. All the best,I'm off to bed!

Thanks Frank, all correct.

Does he want help or not? Problems aside I'd want to confirm that first.

My friend ordered the ars a today. I was explaining about aggravations and she was wondering if this is to be expected?
