Medorrhinum is a remedy that goes to extreme in its pathology
in all the levels - emotional, mental and physical. It seems incapable
of maintaining a neutral stable state.
For example :

Very
talkative always talks about business. Loses constantly the thread of
his talk. In conversation he would occasionally stop and on resuming makes
remark that he could not think what word he wanted to use. And a stage
comes where he becomes fatigued, less communicative, timid and imbecile.

Great
weakness and Dullness of memory. Forgetfulness of names, words etc. Entirely
forgot what she had read, even previous line. Thinks words spelled wrong
and have no meaning.
Cannot remember very familiar names, has to ask name of her most intimate
friend. Weakness of memory where they must write every thing down on a
piece of paper and they forget where they put this piece of paper. Conversely
this patient can have a period of being very alert and active mindedness.
During this period he remembers everything and understands quietly. Feels
that the thinks done today occurred a week ago.

He
is in a great hurry in doing anything so becomes restless and impatient.
He cannot wait, he must do it immediately what he feels and develops the
ailments from Anticipation.When a time is set, he gets very tense and
becomes very hasty to accomplish the work. Thus Medorrhinum suffers from
chronic hurry sickness. Delusion that time passes too slowly. He eats
fast and finishes his entire meal before his companions are through with
the appetizer. The rapidity extends to all fields – thinking moving,
walking, decision-making and tries to perform several things at once and
as a consequence he cannot concentrate on doing one thing at a time, which
results into confusion lack of confidence frustration.
Procrastinate
personalities or desire to procrastinate.
Medhorrinum
postpones every thing to the next day and then feels that the work is
now impossible to do. Leaves the things unfinished or halfway and takes
up something else. Because of this procrastinating nature. Medorrhinum
has great excitement while doing things. And during extreme stage of performing
the work he cannot do any thing with ease, if he fails then he blames
others. Business seemed so lasting or as if it never could be accomplished.
He then avoids taking the responsibilities.
4. Cruelty to animals X Extreme fond of animals.
Cruelty
to animal -He ties up his dog and beat it savagely over a minor annoyance.
He enjoys inflicting pain on animals.
Another medorrhinum patient may be the exact opposite - that is very fond
of animals.-The pet becomes the central focus of the patient’s life
consuming incredible attention and energy and perhaps interfering with
the patient’s occupation.
5. Happiness X Gloominess

of children. Weeps while telling her illness. Suicidal tendency.
