MIND LOQUACITY

(35.00)

Remember what I said: He is in one world and in another, he is loquacious, and he is taciturn. Just answers yes, no. He probably wouldn’t answer if his mom wouldn’t sit there, she had to stimulate him. Mom answers in his place, did you see that? So it is even

aversion to answer. I wrote that down!!

And no remedy do I have in my mind, Aversion to answer is 30 remedies.

You should not think remedies, or you will skew remedies. That is the last thing you want to do.

Audience: Isn’t it logical that he does not want to answer when he is here. Luc: No, I had children who behave different. It is not rule,

For example I had a Helleborus case, also autistic, he was just sitting there, and nothing. His sister, also autistic, went to the back of the room and threw her clothes off, and she talked. But the Helleborus boy wasn’t talking at home also!

Jorick does not seem to be shy at home also. I see the need for a safe world. So you see he is a different person when he out or in his safe world, that is what you need to say. You can translate that also in a rubric, I wont say it, otherwise you will go and look at it, what remedies are there.

My first thought was, Whow, this boy is there, and then there.

SuSanne was also there, and there. The world of violence, and the world of protection she needs. These two things pulling at her. Very hard for her.

That was about his speaking. (38.42)

Okay, the restlessness. I didn’t see him doing, not even the tapping. But I believe he is doing it. And of course I wrote down a rubric. Which one? You have to translate the patient’s language to rubrics...

You must speak in rubrics. I ask you now, to translate his language, to the language of the repertory. The first step, often a difficult step. And you are not alone, everywhere it is difficult.

You need to speak in rubrics !

Or you need to get diarrhea, like I did in India, then you take your repertory and you just read all the rubrics.

The first thing I say to my students, you must read the whole Mind and the Generalities. Because then you know what is in there. Because it then becomes your language. So anybody….

I was asking about the restlessness. Remember SuSanna said about his wringing hands, tapping fingers, busy with his fingers. How do you translate that? It is not under extremities or under rectum.

Yes, it is under Mind, gestures. Sub rubrics: Wringing hands, picking at fingers. There is the rubric.

MIND - GESTURES, makes - hands; involuntary motions of the - wringing the hands

If you start thinking it must be this Family of remedies, or these 5 remedies e.g. the most violent ones, you can be right once in a while, but it is like you have a stick in your hand in the dark and try to hit something. You are not guided; you don’t have any light shining. First: translate, be good at the translation!!

So, the aversion to be touched, we already talked about and we now know why, it was a very beautiful thing.

So far there was one common thing, every time, including the touch. It is the extremes, every time !!

I can understand that some of you thought of Meddhorinum, not my thought by the way. Why no to Meddhorinum? It is a remedy of extremes obviously. Can be very cruel, can be very kind, there is no in-between. But Meddorhinum never came to my mind. That horse never left the stable, and I would never use it in this case. Why not? Because look at the whole case.

And what did I ask, moms side first. Everything that I expected came, I knew it. That is why I said mothers side first. I don’t even need to father, but I just wanted to see how far does that go.

What did I see?

That is why Meddorhinum you cannot have that in your mind. Why not? Homeopathy is beautiful but difficult… How is the case?

This case is syphilitic!! Almost totally syphilitic.

There are some sycotic characteristics, but the main thing is he progressed quickly from the intense look, to the restlessness, to the depression and hurting himself. In 8 years he progressed from psora to sycosis to syphilis. When you see that, you have to find it in SuSanna’s family history. And I did. Strong, I knew it.

When I see crime stories, I see these murders and I understand them and I say I bet I can see it on that side… and then it comes to television, and there it comes… But all the psychiatrics in the world, the police say the book has not yet been written about how one should react towards grief and I say: yes it was, in 1828 and Hahnemann wrote it, when he for the first time talked about the miasmas.

That is why it is so important.

I can understand this boy, better than he thinks and even better than his mom at this point. I know exactly what he thinks, I know what he is afraid of and I know exactly what he wants. The miasmatic influence is important.

So, when you give Meddorhinum, what would that do? Aggravation?

But what kind of aggravation. It would accelerate and I am more afraid it would add sycotic traits to the case for sure. And sycotic traits fuelling the syphilitic traits, you will have a big problem!!! That is why I am so vehement about it.

I hope you will never do it.

There is no reason why you would take Meddhorinum. If you want to talk about the nosode and you want to talk about the miasmatic influence then you have to look at the whole case. That is why I did the family history. I started with SuSanna’s side.

SuSanna told, he would never sit on her lap, never hug, which is the soft touch. He never wanted. That is translated in soft touch aggravates.

GENERALS - TOUCH - slight touch agg.

He refuses love, no not refusing he cannot accept it. Just like SuSanna could not accept it. Remember what SuSanna said: it is not real. That is what the boy thinks exactly: I don’t accept it because I don’t feel it is real.

This is real,…. You shake me!!! Hard push, that is real. SuSanna got beaten up, that was real. Logos killed Eros. The sword killed the shield and animus killed anima. Why, because SuSanna had to survive, remember how she said it. I asked her, how did you react to that…. (Some problems with the microphone)

(48.12)

OK, Than the next thing she says, she is very kind to you, she speaks sometimes in rubrics: he cannot tolerate noise; he just puts his hands on his ears.

And interesting again about this noise. There is such a contradiction all the time. What is the contradiction with the noise? His music!

The sound he cannot tolerate, but the music. He is blasting his ears all the time, this ‘metal music’ I could not listen to it for 2 seconds. But he is blasting it in his ears all the time,…. It is almost he is retracting in his own world; he likes to live in his own world.

How did I translate it in the rubrics? I had two rubrics.

SuSanna said something more about it: what did she say,… I asked, he listens to this music, but at school he cannot listen. (Audience)

Yes, he does this to block the world, all these different things, he cannot stand. Blocking the world.

Which is what SuSanna did in her pregnancy: blocking what was happening to her, because she said ‘I must survive’, ….., I am vomiting for 8 months. I do not have the strength. In other words, we call it, …. The instinct of survival. We all have an instinct of survival; instinctively we can shut everything else down, blocking, to survive.

I have to save my child, the other child and myself. Just block it out what the husband was doing. So, this is what this boy is doing to, he blocks all the other things in the world. It is too many for him. It is called an assault. (microphone adjustment)

So this is what I wrote down, again this is something peculiar. Have I seen this with every autistic child? Absolutely not.

So my students need to say these things first.

And all the time I am doing this, because once I am done, you will understand the case. It cannot go wrong. Remedies then automatic, because then you understand it. And you will be sure about your prescription.

Then of course comes the case management, that’s a different story.

So how did I translate this, beside sensitive to noise? This is interesting because he is not sensitive to this noise on his head, but sensitive to this……., this and this…

What did I write down? ……

I wrote down animation aggravates. Too much, it is all coming from all sides. It is like going to a kermis? (a fair). All the noises. Like Las Vegas, all those blinking machines, the

lights... That is animation.

MIND - SENSITIVE - noise, to MIND - ANIMATION - agg.

That he wouldn’t take one second, he would block it out that‘s for sure. What does it really mean for him?

What is he really trying to do?

So far everything he said is for the same purpose. Safety!

He creates his own safe world. Therefore to some extend he must dissociate from the real world. That is what his mom did too: ´I must dissociate from this dangerous world, I must protect myself. I have to do it or I am not going to survive´.

That is what this boy is thinking. He says the same thing. Imagine if mom wouldn’t have this patience, because I have to give a lot of credits to SuSanna. If she wouldn’t have the patience, if she wouldn’t have the understanding and just rip the headphone of and forbid him to listen to that stuff (music), what would that do?

Just like SuSanna being attacked, like… ripped by her ex-husband. The headphone on his head is safe for him. The world is not safe, except my home, except my school after 2 or 3 months…

This is basically what is happening with him.

Every step has to fit. None of them can be separated.

My horse was bolting, but I was holding it back. I didn’t want it to finish yet. But so far everything was there so far, this remedy has everything.

So you see, I do not need to go to Families, to this or that. If you can do it, then OK, … We talked about the restlessness, about the voracious eating.

This constipation, diarrhea, bloating… SuSanna had to say stop, he would keep on eating. Which rubric? Stomach - Appetite - Insatiable.

STOMACH - APPETITE – ravenous STOMACH - APPETITE - insatiable

And the constipation, I can imagine. In TCM we can explain this very well. It would also affect his energy and his concentration. Why did I ask at that point?…. I asked something more?

Is he drinking with his meals? I asked it on purpose. And mom said definitely Yes to it.

STOMACH - THIRST - eating - while - agg.

Because I am thinking about my horses. You must think by yourself, would I have asked this question? If he would have it a little bit, then I would say forget about it. But SuSanna said a definite YES. And she still says a yes. So for me, it becomes important.

I want to stay with the time line, it is very easy else to get lost.

But I always came back,.. we where there, and now we continue from there. You need to do this, else you will miss have of it. ……

(58.30 )

So anyway, at age 3, the anger started!

About what? About anything, about trifles…., stress.

How do you translate stress in a homeopathic way? People say “I have migraines when I have stress”. Is stress in your in your repertory? What is it, ailments from what..….?? Von Boeninghausen said something different, everybody else said something different…., but it is the same thing… How can you translate it?

It is called: Ailments from emotional excitement.

MIND - AILMENTS FROM - excitement - emotional

So far everything I said is in the computer (repertory). But because I understand the case. So even to the point when he was banging his head. It is amazing how it goes there from sycosis to syphilis. Self-destructive, banging the head, hurting himself. This really has to get your attention, when you have a patient like this and there is such fast progression from sycosis to syphilis.

He is frustrated of course and everything, and everything is strange. See, here too, it was beautiful how SuSanna said this: it is like he has it all set in his mind and if it doesn’t go like that: BANG.

He creates his own world and when it comes in confrontation with the real world: done,… see the clash again, two different worlds. People do this in a very different degree. He does it at two different places, at school and at home.

And when people go even further,… a Natrium carbonicum case, this was one remedy that should have come to your mind.

Natrium carbonicum who has,..

The only remedy for ‘an abyss behind him’ only one remedy, Kali Carbonicum, but this is not what it is in this case.

An abyss is in front of him, ‘basically I cannot connect’. I want to connect, I would love to connect, yet I cannot…. that is Natrium carbonicum.

What do they do as a compensation? The go and flee in a dream world, they even go further what we saw now. They cannot connect at all.

I had this beautiful Natrium carbonicum child, 5 years old, she would tell her mom: go get me some friends to play with. The friends would arrive and the child goes in her room alone, doesn’t talk to the friends at all. See, she wants to connect, but she cannot. A beautiful case, called ASD. It was perfectly resolved with Nat-carb.

Here too, like I said, he is in another world, but not to the point where he is completely dissociated. He has two places where he is pretty safe in his own world. Home and school. But school, obviously, after training. Two or three months training and then ‘yes, now I can do it’. He would not want to change easily, once he feels safe.

That is his safe world; at least he has some order in that world. All the other things are disorder, al the noise, disorder, very bad for him.

Remember what was the first thing he said when SuSanna asked him something? The word: No. He was born with the word: No.

Which rubric? How do you translate that? What rubric did I write down: You have to become good at this.

What does it mean, … how do you translate that? Yes,... contradiction. Tendency to contradict,

MIND - CONTRADICTION - disposition to contradict

And don’t even try to discuss it with him, SuSanna said, because you are going to loose it. He is a good lawyer, he is a very smart fellow. Don’t underestimate him. He doesn’t want to do anything. What did I write down?

Indolence, If you ask him what he would like to do, if he could get away with it, he says “nothing”.

He would just play his game, and really do nothing. It is called: Indolence, or laziness. See every sentence is a rubric. It is beautiful.

MIND - LAZINESS

Also this thing was interesting,…. He has some degree of anticipation anxiety.

He had to come here and SuSanna had to explain it to him. It is not the most outspoken anticipation anxiety, it is not the most outspoken factor in him.

And again I thought, I had to keep this in mind when I will talk to SuSanna about her own feelings during the pregnancy. It wasn’t the most outspoken either.

Not at first, remember,… first she went through this horrific pregnancy and delivery,.. I asked, I wanted to make sure. That is why I kept on asking a couple of times…. So you where OK?…. n the beginning of the pregnancy, you where not anxious…. About having again three days labour,.. She said No.

So it is interesting for me, that the degree of Anticipation anxiety,.. at least about this,.. it is also not found much in her boy.

Well because I was thinking, if it is not going well between your husband you, maybe there is some anticipation anxiety about that? But you did not have, and why not?

SuSanna reacted the way she wanted to react… and what did she do, she Blocks!!

Of course then you do not have anticipation anxiety, you just block, you need to stay alive. That is what this boy is doing also.

So anticipation anxiety is not that strong.

Although I used it, but only a degree 1. It was not strong, neither in SuSanna. Again, a beautiful correspondence.
