Granitum murvey (Granit-m.)

Granitum murvey (Granit-m.) appears in 157 rubrics in the Repertory. Of these, 7 are single rubrics in which only this remedy appears, and 7 are small rubrics with at most two other remedies. The emphases lie in Confusion of mind, mental Exhaustion and Delusions; added to these are Anxiety, Fear, Indifference and Anger. The picture shows a person whom conversations exhaust and confuse and who shields himself, often with haughtiness.

Confusion and exhaustion from conversations

Conversations are the pivot. The single rubric "Exhaustion, mental – conversation – during" records exhaustion during conversation, a small rubric exhaustion after conversation, and the confusion is aggravated by conversation. In addition comes the change over the course of the day: the confusion of mind exists during the day (single rubric), ameliorates in sleep (single rubric) and when lying down (small rubric). This can be read as a mind that is quickly flooded by external stimuli and only finds itself again in rest.

Defense and haughtiness

Where conversation exhausts, withdrawal suggests itself. A single rubric records haughtiness accompanied by introversion ("Haughty, arrogant, overbearing – introverted and haughty"). To this belong the small rubric of not tolerating being hindered, quarrel without cause, and the delusion that others are diminished. A further sign of this demarcation is the idea that someone is intruding into one's own space. Haughtiness thus appears as the protection of a person who feels easily overrun.

Excitement and weakness

A single rubric describes excitement alternating with weakness. Starting, startled is recorded among other things while driving, and the anxiety occurs with sweat and trembling of the hands. The body answers the mind directly.

Summary

Granitum murvey shows in the Repertory a sensitive, quickly exhausted person from whom conversations take clarity and who protects himself against intrusiveness by withdrawal, haughtiness and quarrelsomeness. The confusion follows the course of the day and lessens in sleep.
