53. A fifty year-old woman, with no physical symptoms of particular note, complained of depression and difficulty concentrating at work, since a neighbour had cut down several old trees near her home some days earlier. “The grief is overwhelming,” she said, crying as she spoke. “I can’t get out from under it. No matter how much we do to help the planet, there are still too many people who just don’t care. It’s too dark and hopeless. I can’t believe people have the power to do these things.” Prescription: 30 drops Cimicifuga three or four times a day. Two days later the patient called to report that she was much better. “The depression is gone!” she said. “I still feel grief at the loss of those beautiful trees, but I’m not overwhelmed by the feelings anymore and I’m more able to focus on my work again. That herb you gave me is amazing!” CASE
