Lack of Concentration in a Boy age 10- the Homeopathic Approach

Lack of concentration in a boy of 10. His strong desire to belong to a group, fear of being expelled, anger from being dominated and low self-worth lead to a Lac remedy.
First consultation:

This is a 10-year old boy who was brought by his mother. She is asking for help for her son who is failing in school exams and was asked by the school teacher to repeat the same class. He is lacking concentration in studies. He remains silent or suddenly gets angry and his mood keeps changing. His confidence is extremely low. He gets hurt easily. He cries during sleep.

During consultation he started answering my questions without any hesitation:
Q: What do you want to become? (I asked this to know if he interested in something other than academics)
A: I want to become a pilot. I like to watch movies, play guitar, tabla, drum.
Q. Which subject do you like the most?
A. I love math, but I can’t understand, maybe the teacher is not good.
Q. Tell me more about you.
A: I like Animals –especially the giraffe, elephant, camel. A camel can walk in hot desert.  He doesn’t get dust in his eyes, because of plastic-like covering over eyes that prevents it.  The giraffe is tallest one and elephant walks very nicely. I like birds – especially peacock, parrot, bulbul.
Q. What dreams do you get?
A:. Ghosts without hands, with 3 faces, people stabbing my family members, mad people who are beating me.
Q.What do you do in dreams?
A: I take beatings. I have to bear it because I can’t do anything. I cry. I get scared. No one comes to help me. I get angry, but I can’t do anything.
Q. Fears?
A: Ghosts. I start crying in my sleep when I see blood. I do get scared of snakes, lizards because these are poisonous one.  I like to share everything…I share my tiffin with my friends.  I don’t like my team leader because she does backbiting, she reveals others’ secrets, she expels me from the group.
Q. What group are you talking about?
A. We are in the same group of friends where we plan for meals, outings and playing games, then our moms also join with us. All people are good in team except her. She tells me this is wrong, this is right. She is very dominating. I am scared of being expelled from group, scared of being alone.

Follow up
This year the patient is passing with 65%. His mother is very happy. This time she didn’t complain about anything regarding her son. She said that his relationship with his younger brother and friends had improved a lot.  He is much calmer and more focused now.
His teachers are also surprised to see his improvement.  He doesn’t get scary dreams and his sleep is sound. He has started learning the French language now, along with his studies. He can concentrate very well. Whenever this child sees any dull student in his class, he asks them to take homoeopathic medicine (stated by tuition teacher to his mother.)
I have not needed to repeat the remedy. I have been in contact with his mother and teacher and he is absolutely doing well. He can focus on his studies and he is not aggressive now as he used to be earlier. Rather he has become more calm and mature.

Stopping medication can result in a flaring up of the asthma and this may be confused with a homeopathic aggravation, or worse, it could be potentially very serious)
