Pain and Panic Attacks For pain—or any other physical problem—our mood will always be somewhat changed from how we normally would feel when healthy.  These changes are the things to look for when selecting which remedy to take, not the sensation of pain or feelings of discomfort themselves.  To enhance the flower remedies effect and speed pain relief, Dr. Bach said the flower remedies should be    applied topically to the affected part, as well as taken internally.  Often times when people are in pain, they tend to get irritated or impatient, or snappy with people, so Holly or Impatiens are often indicated.  Equally common is the desire to be left alone—so Water Violet would be the remedy to use.  Or maybe we want to be waited on and loved and taken care of—so Chicory.  If we become hysterical or feel we’re going to lash out in response to the pain, Cherry Plum will help us stay in control. If we feel at our wits end, like we can’t physically or mentally take any more, Sweet Chestnut.  Or maybe we’re suffering very much, but don’t let on that we’re in pain, and downplay the effect it is having on us—so Agrimony would be appropriate.  Vine is good for if we find ourselves bossing people around and telling them exactly what to do and get for us.  And Gorse is good for if we feel like we’ll never be pain free, as it’s easy to think when pain lingers or is very intense.   Many people suffer from panic attacks, though many people have different reasons and ways of thinking that lead them into this particular state.  By really looking at the reason we are panicking, what we’re worried about or what is driving us to feel this way, the needed remedies will become clear.  Some people might panic because they’re afraid of something specific, like large crowds of people, and would need Mimulus.  Other people panic because they can’t escape their thoughts and worries—so perhaps White Chestnut or Agrimony.  Others might get out of sorts because they feel overpowered by outside influences and strong personalities—so Walnut or Centaury would be more applicable.  Maybe there is no real trigger, we just get overwhelmed or full of anguish or afraid, so Elm or Sweet Chestnut or Aspen would be appropriate.  For the actual panic and intense feelings that come with a panic attack, there’s Rock Rose, Cherry Plum, or Rescue®  Remedy to help stay in control.  If the panic arises from a general feeling that things are going to fall apart and get worse, there’s Gentian.  Sometimes these moods arise when we start thinking back on the past, to things we wish we had done differently and want to change, and the inability to do so coupled with the strain of wanting to can lead to a panicky state, so consider Honeysuckle, Pine, or Oak.
