HEARTBREAKS AND HOMOEOPATHY
Bhanuja Singh Jodha
Heartbreak is a complex emotional experience that can be triggered by various factors such as a romantic breakup, loss of a loved one, or betrayal by a trusted friend. It can also be triggered by many different situations, such as losing a job, moving house, a relationship breakdown. Even moving through different life stages can sometimes bring about a sense of loss as we transition out of childhood for example, confront the menopause, or come to terms with children flying the nest. As it's causes are manifold, so too are the responses. Some people go into a phase of deep sorrow but as time passes they accept the loss and move on with their lives. Other people are unable to move forward and accept reality. As these emotions is a natural and normal response to loss. However, if one doesn’t have the opportunity to properly acknowledge and process these feelings, longer-term health and well-being might start to suffer. And it’s not only the emotional health that can be affected; physical symptoms are also common during periods of mourning. Difficulty sleeping, reduced appetite, fatigue, and nausea can all feature as part of response.
