The diagnosis "burnout syndrome" is spreading ever wider. It is not only people who, after many years of working in the rat race, are physically and mentally completely exhausted who suffer from it, but increasingly also the younger generation of around 30-year-olds. Social coldness and increased stress in working life as well as in the personal environment produce a diffuse clinical picture of depression, anxiety and panic, combined with a variety of autonomic symptoms and diverse pain syndromes.
In contrast to the side-effect-prone standard therapy with antidepressants and anxiolytics, homeopathy can respond to complex psychosomatic complaints gently, individually and holistically. Using exemplary case studies by renowned international authors, SPEKTRUM presents homeopathic approaches to treating the widespread illness of depression and, specifically, burnout, gives guidance on frequently indicated remedies and remedy groups and describes typical courses of recovery.
