This patient came to us with a chief complaint of chronic disturbance in sleep.

He described that he had sleep issues since he was in his early twenties but had increased since the past ten months.

He was now facing difficulty in falling asleep especially in the first half of the night. Due to this, he was gloomy throughout the day.

He added that he was stressed due to his work and had a constant fear of breaking down under stress. He had become very irritable since the past five six months and had aversion in taking up new tasks.

He suffered from loss of self-confidence. All this was affecting his work performance.

Little things annoyed him but he could not react in office, hence he removed all the irritation at home over his wife and children.

He was afraid to be alone and wanted constant company.

Based on his symptomatology, he was prescribed the Homoeopathic remedy Lycopodium.

His symptoms showed gradual improvement over six months, after which he was better.
