If we compare the conceptual image of Sycotic Miasm and Thuja, it is mirror image. Both are very similar to each other. It will not be an exaggeration to say that Sycosis is synonyms to Thuja.
If we examine today Life and Living of modern man, an ambitious man climber wants to reach the sky. Wants all the comforts of life at any cost, pays more cost than necessary at the end finds himself prostrated, depressed, sad, withdrawn, low energy, becomes weak, debilitated, slow, memory poor, disappointed because his ambition desire is not fulfilled. Becomes envious, jealous, suspicious about others resulting in Manic-Depressive Psychosis, Paranoid states, Schizoid, Split personality, this is nothing but Sycotic Miasm. I have found Thuja as one of the most indicated remedy in these conditions. People belonging to high society upper class have all the material things of life but are unhappy. They enjoy everything wine, women and wealth, suffer from gonorrhea, syphilis treated with suppressive line of treatment. Thuja is one of the indicated remedy.
Other indications of Thuja poor people staying in cold, damp, marshy places suffering from asthma. Bad effects of vaccination: infant suffering from asthma after vaccination, Thuja proved to be useful.
People suffering from rheumatism after suppressed discharges, Thuja proved to be an effective remedy.
Old people suffering from enlarged prostate, dribbling urine, Thuja is a friend of old people.
Women at menopause suffering from fibroid, profuse menses, clots, dysmenorrhoea, leucorrhoea, menorrhagia, metrorrhagia Thuja is the remedy provided we get indications mentioned in the conceptual image.
