Mental ** is one of the more common mental illnesses, and now many people think that it is a modern disease, but in fact, mental ** has existed a long time ago. In the field of Chinese medicine, it is generally called madness.
I have been practicing medicine for more than 30 years, and I have seen many mental ** patients, and everyone's condition cannot be said to be exactly the same, but there are similarities.
Some manifestations are mainly mental depression, silent dementia, some are incoherent, quiet and happy, some are excited, manic, and unable to control their behavior, language, and so on.
In fact, these traditional Chinese medicine practitioners believe that the balance of yin and yang in the body is out of balance, and they cannot maintain each other, so that yin is deficient in the lower and yang is hyperactive, the mind is disturbed, and the gods are in chaos and become crazy.
Spirit**, I have a partyFor the spirit, I have a side, dissolving phlegm and turbidity, opening stagnation knots, and calming the nerves, which is also a prescription that I often apply dialectically to addition and subtraction. Today I will share it with you.
Boiled licorice, floating wheat, jujube, lily, zhimu, shengdi, calamus, tulip, alum, calcined dragon oyster, mother-of-pearl, light fresh bamboo drainage.
Those who have some understanding of traditional Chinese medicine should be able to see that this is actually a combination of prescriptions such as Ganmai jujube and lily dihuang soup.
Burn licorice, floating wheat, jujube, calm the nerves. In particular, floating wheat, which cleans the heart and calms the nerves, is the best medicine for emotional diseases in traditional Chinese medicine. The combination of the three flavors of the medicine into sweet wheat jujube soup, the original recipe is used for ** mental trance, sadness and crying, involuntarily, and upset.
Lilies and raw land constitute lily rehmannia soup. It can nourish the heart and lungs, and clear the patient's heart of irritation. The lily in it, into the heart and lungs, can clear the heat of the qi. Raw rehmannia nourishes the heart yin and reassures the gods. Tulip, soothing the liver and clearing heat. Calamus, phlegm and enlightenment. Alum, dry and damp expectorant. Bamboo drains water, clearing phlegm and heat. Keel, oysters, and mother-of-pearl are mainly used to calm the mind. Finally, there is a mother. Zhimu and lily are paired to form lily Zhimu soup. It is also a combination of nourishing yin, purifying the heart and calming the nerves. In short, this compatibility combines many scriptures in one, soothing liver qi, clearing depression and heat, dissolving phlegm and heat, and calming the heart and nerves.
Medical caseLast week, a mentally ** patient came to the follow-up visit, this is his third diagnosis, from the beginning to the present after the medication is now the situation has improved a lot.
At the time of the first diagnosis, her family said that she had been mentally ** for more than 2 years, and had been taking Western medicine, and she stopped taking medicine after feeling better, but in June last year, because of the death of her grandfather, her condition began to worsen. She is prone to auditory hallucinations at night, always wakes up at one o'clock in the middle of the night, hears a male and female voice talking, and always feels that someone wants to harm her. The quality of sleep is very bad. There are also cases of headache and fatigue.
I showed her the tongue coating, and asked her about the medicine and urine she had taken before, and prescribed this prescription for her. When the follow-up visit, the patient said that she felt that it had an effect, her head was not as painful as before, but her mood was still unstable, and she would have occasional auditory hallucinations. During the clinic last Wednesday, I saw that her spirit was much better than before, and her speech was more sufficient, and it was like a different person from before, but she said that she did not return to her original state in terms of eating and eating, she had a feeling of satiety, and her mouth was slightly bitter, so I changed a few more medicines to regulate the spleen and stomach, and the prescription did not move much, helping her to be stable and stable. The symptoms of this patient are typical liver stagnation and dampness, phlegm and qi intermingling, and heat dissipation over time. This heat evil burns the yin, and the patient is dry. disturbs the mind, so it is irritable, dreamy, and has auditory hallucinations.
The purpose of sharing the recipes and cases with you is to hope that those who have these diseases or people around them who have these problems can have a first-class idea, and if there are professional readers, they can also learn from them if they find it helpful to better help more people.
The specific dosage is not written in the above prescription, because the specific dosage of traditional Chinese medicine must be used for reference and application under the guidance of syndrome differentiation of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners. The application of TCM decoction can only be carried out after rigorous and careful consideration. I am afraid that some patients do not understand the pharmacology and condition of the drug, and they can use it when they see a prescription, what can they do if there is a problem.
