Reason for useGuernsey

We may draw many important symptoms from the action of this wind-flower. For, as the flower bobs about with every breath of wind, and changes its position constantly, so do the symptoms which are characteristic of the drug. The pains constantly change their location, flying from one part to another; sometimes existing with intense severity, then suddenly becoming very mild, and vice versa ; the diarrhoeic stools change their character constantly, no two being alike, etc. Mental.-- This remedy is particularly applicable for complaints which are found to occur in patients of a mild, yielding, or good-natured disposition; also in those who by their sickness, or naturally, are very easily excited to tears ,--they are very apt to burst into tears whenever spoken to, or when they attempt to speak, as in giving their symptoms, etc. Affections of the mind in general; covetous; mistrustful; absent-minded; low-spirited.
