The Top 7 Best Homeopathic Remedies for Depression
Sure, everyone may feel sad at times.
But what about when at times is more like…
Constantly.
A feeling of despair.
Or that maybe things just won’t ever get better.
For which, I have below the top homeopathic remedies associated with depression.
NOTE: FOR ANYONE FEELING DEEPLY DEPRESSED, AND ANY THOUGHTS OF SELF HARM OR SUICIDE: PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO REACH OUT TO THE 988 SUICIDE & CRISIS LIFELINE
1. Nat Mur
The top remedy for chronic depression. This person may feel very closed off, reserved, and serious. They may have a feeling of needing to cry, but can’t (or only if when they are alone). They are all about their inner circle, and it is not easy for outsiders to get to know them. Can also have issues with dry skin, constipation, and headaches (particularly from/or made worse by the sun).
2. Ignatia
Often the acute form of Nat Mur (but can also be chronic). This state commonly arises in those experiencing some form of grief, or otherwise very repressed emotions that can be felt as a tightness or blockage in the chest or lump in throat. There is often a lot of sighing. Unexpressed long term this can lead to various form of tics or twitches. This remedy can help restore emotional balance after the death of a loved one (see post).
3. Aurum
This type is often those who are workaholics to the extent that their entire identity is around their job and financial matters. This type of depression is very dark, and very deep/heavy. There can be a family history of deep depression with inclinations towards suicide.
4. Conium
For those that may gradually overtime withdraw into themselves more and more, experiencing a paralysis of self. This can lead to depression as they do not feel connected to others. Often associated with breast lumps or other masses in the body (see post).
5. Sepia
Common in women with pcos or postpartum, a depression resulting from feelings of indifference or even irritation towards loved ones. (see post).
6. Kali Phos
For those who experience depression from mental burnout. They may go go go and then feel the opposite swing of complete exhaustion causing a state of depression.
7. Cimicifuga
A feeling of depression arising from feeling caged in, yet at the same time also very clingy. Gives rise to more manic-depressive type state that may swing back and forth.

SO HOW DO I TAKE THESE?
It is typically suggested to take 3-4 pellets of the 30c potency (see post: Homeopathic Potencies Explained) at a time. If you experience improvement, then only repeat when the improvement wears off (see post: When to Take a Dose in Homeopathy).
