Arsenicum Album
(Arsenic Trioxidum)
Pale, thin and neatly dressed, Arsenicum Album could not control his anxiety. Trembling, jerking and twitching sensations affected his whole body as he sat on the black vinyl chair outside the courtroom, sipping from a white plastic cup a warm, which he preferred over hot cup of coffee. Arsenicum felt weak, emaciation was always rapid. He was emotionally exhausted yet knew that if he didn’t get a grip of the situation then he would end up on the floor after fainting, which he often did, over the slightest cause. It would be a dreadful embarrassment to faint in the witness stand and lost in the prospective scene, Arsenicum failed to notice the approaching policeman. The uniformed authoritarian enquired about the time, receiving no response from the man sitting before him he repeated the question speaking louder. Arsenicums heart raced. He had instant delusions that he was about to be arrested. He felt vulnerable and defenceless and his insecurity flourished as he made eye contact with the blue uniformed clad male.
Arsenicum unfortunately had a habit of blowing things out of proportion. A perfect example occurred the previous day whilst grocery shopping at the mall. He became paranoid, delusional that the innocent shoppers were watching him, they were his enemies and he was being pursued by them. Ultimately, he thought they were conspiring to kill him. The paranoia germinated to such a crescendo that Arsenicum actually crouched down on his hands and knees and crawled around the end of an aisle all the while pushing the grocery laden shopping trolley before him and causing shoppers to stand and stare in disbelief at the spectacle before them.
