Loneliness

Loneliness (Heather, Impatiens, Water Violet)

For individuals who suffer from either constant need of attention and company, for those who are impatient and irritable and prefer to work alone, or for individuals who appear aloof, find it difficult to connect with others.

Heather

People who enjoy companionship and dislike solitude, and who feel driven to talk in detail about their own affairs. We might take this remedy when our need for an audience means that we start buttonholing strangers. In a Heather state we feel isolated and unheard and preoccupied with our own affairs. If we find someone to talk to, we monopolise the conversation and don't listen to the other person.

Positive quality of the remedy is a more fulfilling balance an talking and listening and an ability to enjoy moments of solitude and quiet.

Impatiens

Impatience, and irritability associated with impatience. True Impatiens types are quick in thought and action, and sometimes isolate themselves and work alone if they feel others are holding them back. We can all take this remedy however if we feel frustrated and irritated that life and other people seem to be going too slowly.

The positive quality of the remedy is greater patience and an ability to enjoy the moment without hurry. Its associations with a calm mind and the relief of agitation mean that Impatiens is one of the five remedies in Dr Bach's emergency "rescue" combination.

Water Violet

People who start off enjoying solitude, but sometimes find they have become isolated. True Water Violet people are independent, reserved, and private by nature: they enjoy their own company. We take this remedy at times when our self-reliance and love of quiet leaves us cut off from others and feeling lonely.

The positive quality of the remedy is a balanced point where we can enjoy both solitude and the company of friends.
