Matt, a tall, slim man in his mid 30s presented with anxiety, restlessness and tremors. Matt’s skin was dry, particularly noticeable on his face, and his right eye was often red and sore especially in the evening. Matt’s sleep was restless and he often woke two or three times during the night.

Matt exhibited a lack of confidence and his main fears were concerns about his health and a fear of failure. Matt’s fear had arisen after being unduly criticised by a family member. He was cautious and chose his words carefully so as not to offend.

To alleviate the anxiety and because of his concerns regarding his health, Matt kept very fit and participated in many sporting events, training at least four times a week. He was an avid reader and often read one or two books a week. He worked in the financial sector and was cautious with his spending.

After a few weeks on the appropriate homeopathic medicine, Matt’s sleep began to improve. It wasn’t until the second follow-up, however, that Matt mentioned he was concerned about his performance in the bedroom, where he was finding it difficult to maintain an erection and/or experienced premature ejaculation. Matt was very anxious about this and again experienced a fear of failure.

After the homeopathic medicine was given, I followed up with Matt every six weeks, increasing the potency of his medicine at each visit. After five months, his health began to improve significantly, including his sexual performance. Matt communicated more confidently, his skin was no longer dry
and flaky, his eye was better, the tremors only just noticeable.

By the seventh follow-up Matt was so much happier. He revealed how much better he felt and how much his sex life had improved, saying it is now only on rare occasions he has any trouble performing. Matt’s wife is very happy too.
