Depression is a psychiatric disorder that is characterized by constant feelings of sadness, low self-esteem and loss of interest in daily affairs. Depression is most likely caused by hormonal imbalances, genetic problems, drug addiction, grief etc. 

Depression can be characterized by its symptoms: 

  1. You will experience constant feeling of sadness 
  2. There may be sudden outbursts of anger or crying or weeping 
  3. You may have difficulties in concentrating and executing various tasks 
  4. Constant feeling of tiredness 
  5. Loss of appetite or sometimes over eating 
  6. Changes in weight 
  7. Social withdrawal 
  8. Difficulties in sleeping at night 

Homeopathy focuses on treating disorders by rooting out the cause of the disease rather than just treating the symptoms. 

Homeopathic treatments do not cause any side effect to the body. We take a thorough history of patient before selecting a treatment line for patient. This includes current illness, past illnesses, family history, diet & regimen of patient, lifestyle, history of previous treatments, physical & psychological makeup of patient and many more. 

After analyzing all this information the remedy & treatment plan is decided. Even during follow ups a systematic analysis is done to decide further action plan. So 10 patients having namely same illness might need 10 different remedies or two patients needing same remedy might need different dose & repetition of the remedy. 

Homoeopathic medicines surely do not cause any side effects if given rightly. But any thing that has an action has to have a reaction. Homoeopathic medicines if given inappropriately may cause adverse effects. Homoeopathic treatment should always be taken under guidance & supervision of an expert Homoeopathic consultant.
