Agrimony is the remedy for people who keep their troubles hidden under a mask of pleasure and happiness. The classic Agrimony person would be the sad clown, suffering anguish inside but still the life and soul of the party. Their friends are often the last to know that anything is wrong in the Agrimony person's life.
Agrimony folks tend to inwardly stress in excess amounts over illness, money or problems at work. Again they put on a happy face to cover it up. Agrimony people are very sensitive and have a longing for harmony. They will really go out of their way in being kind to other to the point of sacrificing for them. Since they want to be spreaders of cheerfulness and make light of their own problems they become very well-liked people. That may seem like a good thing to some but keep in mind they are really suffering inside.
Agrimony people can turn to drink or drugs to help them maintain a mask of happiness, and they lean toward not being alone since they find it harder to keep the mask up when they are forced into their own company. Instead they will seek out friends, parties and bright lights. Only at night when they are alone with their thoughts will the mental torture they have held back so effectively come back to disturb them.
Agrimony is given to help Agrimony people to accept and come to terms with the darker side of life and their own personalities, so that they can become more rounded human beings. They will not lose their sense of humor, but they will laugh at their troubles to dismiss them, rather than laughing to hide them. As a mood remedy, Agrimony helps anyone who is trying not to face a trouble and using jokes, wit and smiles to avoid a painful reality.
The jovial, cheerful, humorous people who love peace and are distressed by argument or quarrel, to avoid which they will agree to give up much. Though generally they have troubles and are tormented and restless and worried in mind or in body, they hide their cares behind their humour and jesting and are considered very good friends to know. They often take alcohol or drugs in excess, to stimulate themselves and help themselves bear their trials with cheerfulness.
Agrimony will help bring about a cheerful outlook and increase confidence. After treating with the Agrimony remedy this person can finally feel safe in facing both sides of their personality. They will even feel safe to discuss life’s problems. This is in balance.
