| Homeopathic treatment for Hysteria |
Hysteria is subconscious mind's attempt to protect the patient from psychic stress. Subconscious motives include primary gain, in which the symptom directly relieves the stress (as when a patient coughs to release energy pent up from keeping a secret), and secondary gain, in which the symptom provides an independent advantage, such as staying home from a hated job. More recent critics have noted the possibility of tertiary gain, when a patient is induced subconsciously to display a symptom because of the desires of others (as when a controlling husband enjoys the docility of his sick wife). There need be no gain at all, however, in a hysterical symptom. A child playing hockey may fall and for several hours believe he is unable to move, because he has recently heard of a famous hockey player who fell and broke his neck. Thus it is not malingering or feigning but intensification of physical traits to satisfy the psychological stress.
CBT: Cognitive behavioral therapy is of much use.
Homeopathy as special remedies for personality types and can be selected based on traits which helps patient improve nicely. |
