Phellandrium aquaticum (Phel.)
Phellandrium aquaticum (Phel.) appears in 83 rubrics in the Repertory. Of these, 4 are single-remedy rubrics in which only this remedy appears, and 5 are small rubrics with at most two other remedies. The emphasis lies on Fear and Anxiety, in addition to Sadness and cheerful mood. The data are slim.
Fear of misfortune and anxiety when lying
The fear is directed at misfortune: "Fear, phobia – Misfortune, of – Gambling, bad luck in" and misfortune during the day; in addition there is fear after lunch. The anxiety drives to lying down; the tormenting anxiety compels the person to lie down. Lying down acts as a refuge, not as relaxation.
Further entries
Two entries fall outside the frame. One delusion asserts that something projects from the head, so that one cannot see over it. A small rubric names cheerfulness in the open air. The desire to spit frothy stands as a single-remedy rubric.
Summary
Phellandrium aquaticum shows in the Repertory above all an anxious basic attitude with fear of bad luck and misfortune that compels the person to lie down; the cheerfulness in the open air points to a counterbalance. The small number of specific rubrics permits no more.
All rubrics of this remedy, the materia medica and the case work are in Rathmer’s Repertory.
