Hi, I'm new to the forum (and forums in general) and have been reading postings here and the FAQs. I've been in a treatment program of classical homeopathy for 11 months, 21 days. At this point, I am losing my certainty that my hereditary depression can be cured. I was on an SSRI anti-depressant for 13 years and it successfully treated my depression. Still, I wanted to be prescription-free if possible and an M.D. told me about classical homeopathy. I know it works differently for every person. I would so much like to know, if there is ANYONE who has been completely healed of inherited depression and successfully weaned off of medication. I was so enthusiastic early on, navigated through five months of depression while the remedies were clearing it out, had a breakthrough into a good place, but am now up to a 50 M dose of Natrum Muriaticum and am experiencing such despondency. I'm beginning to feel almost foolish for continuing. This instability is disrupting every area of my life. I don't know if I have the strength and the courage to stay the course. If I could hear from someone or read a case or two that would encourage me, I'd be so grateful. Sincerely, Jana

Dear Jana
13 yrs on antidep meds is a long time of suppressions. All this needs to come out via aggravations,and yes this might take a while. Have you been monitored via a trained homeopath every few weeks? Have all aspects of your imbalance been dealt with? The more open you are with your own homeopath the better. Try and keep personal journals and take these with you during your follow up appt. Thats what i encourage when someone does not seem to be letting everything go. Since we on this forum are not your homeopaths it is difficult to give advice without interrupting your case progress.
All the best.................yes there is hope...........stick with it.

Dear Gina,
Thank you so much for your reply. Yes, I am working with a trained/certified homeopath. I had an extensive (and fully disclosing) intake interview and see her every 2-3 weeks and inbetween if needed. I keep an extensive journal and take the latest pages to each session so I can share. I have been involved in alternative healing approaches for decades, but I have no frame of reference for homeopathy and no one in my circle of friends with whom to discuss this. It's a bit of a nether-world and isolating. That's why I'm wanting to reach out through this forum. I appreciate your encouragement very much. Sincerely, Jana

Dear Jana
Yes Happy Birthday!
Believe it or not being a homeopath is a journey taken all alone aswell,most of the people around this planet do not believe in the powers of homeopathy,even here in california it's a struggle to find another 'homeopath' to discuss cases with,noless 'other people such as yourself'.
It is almost an immediate cause for an argument when you mention 'homeopathy'..............How close minded many are,turned into media hyped zombies,following the paths of toxic allopaths.
Welcome to the world of homeopathy........................................ ....
