The mental state of Cocculus is one of dullness or stupefaction. He gets weary from the slightest exertion – physical and mental. He reflects long before answering (Answers, reflects long- Kent, 3). In some situations, finding it difficult to answer, he feels the need to answer hastily (Answers, hastily- Kent, 3). During the case-taking, one observes that a question needs to be repeated several times either by the doctor or by the patient to himself.

Shy but says I am not shy.
Very mild & anxiety conscience of.
A very important component of Cocculus is Anxiety about health (Kent, 7). This is pertaining to himself and equally to the health of his relatives (Anxiety about health; anxiety about health of relatives- Kent, 7).
He can be visibly upset by any tragedy or sad situation (Horrible things and sad stories affect profoundly- Kent, 52). He goes out of his way to be of help to others who are suffering or are in trouble (Cares about others).
They undergo many sleepless nights to attend to someone who is critically ill or bed-ridden). They may finally succumb to this pressure themselves and it affects their health (Affects of night watching and loss of sleep- Kent, 1402).
From this oversensitive nature with a need to compromise, along with dullness of mind.

Asarum patients have the sensation as if their limbs were floating out of their physical body. While walking on the street they may experience the feeling that their limbs are floating in the air. Their hands seem as if they are floating in the air. Imagines he is hovering in air like a spirit, when walking in open air. It is not a mere sensation however; it is a sensation which produces tremendous panic. It is as if the person were diffusing - as if their limbs were diffusing outward. In the Repertory one can find Asarum in the rubrics: "sensation as if floating in the air" or "of walking in the air," but the actual feelings and circumstances are as I have described. They feel at that moment as if they may die or go crazy or that their entire being may disintegrate. Their mind becomes confused, and, finally, they begin to contemplate giving up their studies.
One sees the opposite state as well in which parts of the body feel fixed or stuck, especially the eyes. The eyes feel as if they are stuck in their sockets and cannot be moved. (HPATHY)
 Asarum patients can also develop a fixed idea that there is a pressure inside their head compressing the brain and preventing it from movement, preventing it from thinking. The tongue feels stuck and incapable of motion. In Clarke’s Materia Medica the symptom "sensation as if the eyes would be pressed asunder to the side" is noted. That which I have encountered more frequently is the feeling that the parts of the body are stuck and cannot be moved. So, one sees in Asarum two contrasting processes - diffusion on the one hand and solidification on the other.
