You don´t know how good the manic/depr thought was, Zmyst...but could you explain more about this BI-polar thing?

Well, I was looking at Anacardium, but I don´t know…somehow it doesn´t fit, it´s just not him.
Is Medorrhinum or Phos a possibility? He loves the seashore, bathing and the sun. He has a patch of hair on his back at waist high (? it´s not right, but hope you understand what I mean). He has a strong sexuality, he has a passion for feet (it bigan when he was 6 years old!!) He often has dreams about what he is thinking during the day, because it´s about sex or business! He wants to try everything in life, he likes to do what he feels for for the moment. (He uses to say: what if we die tomorrow and haven’t tried this or that?) He is VERY sympathetic with animals, he can start discussions with total strangers, he has lot of “project” all the time, but he can’t finish them before he gets excited for something new! Precocious (is that the right word? He "feels" in chest or stomach wether something good or bad will happen )He loves lightening, likes everything beautyful, It can be nature or a person. He is gullible, loves company and dancing! Oh, and the traveling! Gets very restless in the evening, have to go out, do something (preferably to a pub, but he is called “The tomato-man”, because he is totally satisfied with a glass of tomato-juice. Sometimes maybe a beer. It’s not the drinking part; it’s the company he needs and the possibility to talk! He talks a lot). He is very spontaneous (or impulsive?), that’s why he was hitchhiking around Europe when he was 16. (Met a friend who PLANED to go out and hitchhike in about two days, he phoned back the same evening and asked if they could leave next morning! His boss didn’t want to let him leave at once; he was ready to quit his job!) No physical problems besides dandruff, fungus on feet, and sometimes ear stopped while talking.
Absentminded (3!!), wants to do something for the world, the environment. (I don’t know if it’s his own idea, since he is easily excitable, he picks up ideas everywhere…)
Fall asleep on right side but sleeps on his back with one or both hands under head) sleeps well. Hard to waken up if tired. Able to conversate while sleep.
Fear:none, according to him. Possibly not being able to help when someone will need it. (being helpless?) Fear of dark when little.
Food esires much salt and sweet, likes spicy food, garlic, onions. Thirsty, prefers cold drinks and food. Hamburger and Coke.
Hands cold and sometimes moist, feet sweat odor.
Appearance: tall, used to walk stooped, but I criticized too much ( yes, I know) now it’s just the opposite: he walks almost bent backwards… Thick eyebrows.
Grandmother died of lung-cancer (?), the other grandmother committed suicide…Father manic-depression… nice company, hmmm? Otherwise hypertoni in the family (fathers side).
He was born with the cord around his neck. Grow fast in puberty, problems with jaw, couldn’t grow as fast as rest of the body. Teachers little favorite in school. Polite, helping, open child. Easy to make contact with strangers even when he was a child. Loved sport, he was good too, but when father noticed it, and begin to set pressure on him that he must win, than he just quit.
His motto is CARPE DIEM !
(And yes, I know I´m very "talcative" )

And GM, about Vermeulen´s MM : the Concordant or the Synoptic?

Pulsatilla, cm, and concordant mat med, if not puls lyc is the rem, most probably.

Wow! Than we´re back, where we started! Do you remember when I "tried to make him" to a Puls and wrote about his sometimes feminine mooves? Yes, yes, yes! Thanks!!!! Also the enormous desire to rub eyes is Puls. By the way, do you have anything else besides Puls in your Synthetic at Eye,rub, desire?
And about Lyc, is it true that they mostly "talk" about sex, but than... nothing further?
This is very exciting, I´ll soon have a whole Homeopathic pharmacy at home
Thanks again, GM! For the first time, this remedy FEEEEEEEELS SOOOOOOO RIGHT!
Thanks for your patience!

Ok, I´ve cooled down now. Please, GM, could you please tell me why you thought of Puls? We took up the case in the school and at several places, but no one wanted to belive me, they said a Puls could never act this way. That I thought of the remedy, wasn´t because of my knowledge, rather the opposite. But I´m really curious, because this picture of him is far away from the Pulsatilla I read in Kent!
Thanks in advance!

OK, I think we just learn some stereotypes of each remedy in school... we should look at each side of them, or what they can "turn"into...hmmm, got to buy that MM you told me about...

Oh, and the most important thing! IF they don´t have the CM pot, will a one M do?
And how to give those small granules, because I´ve heard so much and so totally different things about them. But logically shouldn´t matter...or should it?
Thanks

even 200 would do, dont give higer that 200 if you are not certain of the choice..even i cant be that in many cases. And its probably best given as lem one dose each day in case he antidotes, puls is weak for coofe, even the smell off coffe may antidote,coffe is in all types of cocc cola, (pepsi too), and some chocolates.

So strong impulsivity..puls, lyc etc, could also be cimicifuga, but that is far out, more like tuberculinum..Or Nux v...lach is also like that..and that fit the carselling episode, it fit lach...but could also be puls.

VonS.
I see that you mention that father of patient is Manic/depressive.
Hmmm.. There is familial tendency with bi-polar.

Compulsions, short attention span, irritibility, grandiose behaviors, prone to be excessive in sexual behaviors or spending.
Also, pressured speech.
In the severe (most recognized form) are hallucinations. They are now beginning to recognize lesser forms, without the hallucinations.
Also, Bi-polar being found to be sometimes mistaken for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in kids/teens. Not sure applications to adults.

If you would like, I will look up a good web-site I ran across the other day and let you know the address, but it sounds like you might have your remedy. Let me know.

Zmyst

To GM
And its probably best given as lem one dose each day in case he antidotes,
Sorry my ignorance, but what is lem stay for?

And to Zmyst
Yes, I really hope this remedy will work, but I´m interested anyway, because this one case is not the whole world, I could have use for the knowledge some other time maybe...so I look forward to that link,thanks.

ooops typo again, its LM water potence, changed a bit every day-do this, dissolve one pill LM in a 100ml bottle, give it ten hits against a boook or something, to shake it, this you d each time you take any of it, take one teaspoon, into a fresh glas of water, ( half glas) stri and from that take one sppon as medication, same procedure each day. Stop only if hard agg.
