Suffering from mental illness is not only emotionally uncontrollable and psychologically unhealthy, but also accompanied by a series of physical symptoms, some patients will be afraid of cold, always feel cold hands and feet, lower abdomen, warm or not, love to sweat and so on. In the view of traditional Chinese medicine, this is all due to long-term physical and mental malnutrition, resulting in qi and blood disorders, and the body is full of cold.
I still remember a male patient I received two years ago, 42 years old, with a history of 13 years of mental illness, taking medicine all year round, the amount of medicine increased sharply every day, a lot of medicine, still could not relieve his discomfort, closed all day, and the family felt that there was no hope.
It was only after a friend's introduction that they came to me with their last hope, hoping that TCM could have a good way to enable patients to have basic living skills.
At the initial diagnosis, the patient's face was sallow, his face and limbs were swollen, his tongue was dark and purple, and his sublingual stasis was serious, indicating that the blood stasis was serious, the veins were blocked, his thinking was confused and unclear, and his speech was upside down. He said that he often felt flustered, sweated a lot, was afraid of cold, and sweated profusely when he became ill.
After a detailed dialectic, he was prescribed.
Organizers:
Perilla, Banxia, Codonopsis, tangerine peel, bellflower, licorice, wood, ginger, jujube
(TCM dialectic, one person and one party, need to be used under the guidance of a professional doctor)
Solution:
Perilla is used as the main medicine to dissipate cold and replenish yang;
Codonopsis: replenish qi;
Woody aroma, bellflower: makes breathing smooth;
Banxia, Poria cocos, licorice, tangerine peel: dispel stasis and dampness, regulate qi and blood.
The result?
After more than a month of medication, the family members have seen obvious improvement effects, mainly manifested in the patient's sleep improvement, shorter mood disorders, and some improvement in panic and sweating, so the family and the patient himself have hope and energy. Follow-up prescription for follow-up.
Because the patient has a long course of disease, and the amount of Western medicine is also large, so it will not be anxious for a while and a half, and the traditional Chinese medicine is slow, but it can be conditioned from the whole and repair the internal damage of the human body.
Now two years have passed, and the patient has long since returned to normal life, stopped Western medicine, and walked out of the house!
