Understanding Mental Diseases through Organon of Medicine: A review

Abstract

Mental disorders pose a significant global health challenge, with millions of individuals affected by conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and other psychiatric illnesses. While conventional psychiatry offers pharmacological and psychotherapeutic interventions, alternative systems of medicine, particularly Homoeopathy, claim a holistic approach to healing. This article critically evaluates the effectiveness of Homoeopathic medicines in mental disorders through the lens of Hahnemannian philosophy, analysing principles, clinical evidence, and contemporary relevance.
