Anxiety is an emotion which is characterized by an inner state of turmoil and is usually an 'anticipatory' apprehension about a future threat. The threat can often be exaggerated in the eyes of the person experiencing it, leading to excessive nervousness, worry, and uneasiness. When a person experiences these emotions on a regular basis, then it can be classified as a disease or a disorder. Anxiety disorders can be severely limiting to the sense of freedom with which one can lead life. Western medication's solution to this difficult problem is usually to manage symptoms through drugs. Although these drugs offer little hope of a true recovery or cure, they often restore a semblance of normalcy to the affected person's life. However, these drugs often come with a long list of known side effects. Even though for many people western medication is the only option, it is also true that in a large proportion of the anxiety cases, homeopathy can be an extremely compelling alternative to pursue. It helps many cases of anxiety in a gentle way and can often lead to permanent reduction or resolution of anxiety symptoms. In my practice, I routinely see patients achieve freedom from this difficult condition in a very holistic way without lifelong dependence on medication. The process requires careful prescribing of deep acting homeopathic remedies (sometimes a series of remedies is needed) to remove the predispositions towards this condition.

Some of the anxiety states that show great benefit under homeopathic treatment are:
