Question by Veeraghavan.
We can consider in some disorders of the skin which are generally disturbs beauty of an Individual & also if there is a big chronic disappointment in the life of a person, the following state of disposition & mind is expressed commonly i.e. the rubric "FEAR, OPINION OF OTHER OF" ( ambr, bar-c,germ,nux-vom,ozone,prot,puls). But why Nat-m missing in this rubric?
Answer:
Dear Veeraraghavan,

we will discuss the dictionary meaning of the following words so that the understanding of the rubric Fear, Opinion of others, of will be quiet easy.

Already, we have discussed the meaning of the fear as:

Fear is a distressing emotion aroused by a perceived threat. It is a basic survival mechanism occurring in response to a specific stimulus, such as pain or the threat of danger. In short, fear is the ability to recognize danger and flee from it or confront it, also known as the Fight or Flight response. Some psychologists such as John B. Watson, Robert Plutchik, and Paul Ekman have suggested that fear belongs to a small set of basic or innate emotions. This set also includes such emotions as joy, sadness, and anger. Fear should be distinguished from the related emotional state of anxiety, which typically occurs without any external threat. Additionally, fear is related to the specific behaviors of escape and avoidance, whereas anxiety is the result of threats which are perceived to be uncontrollable or unavoidable.[1] Worth noting is that fear almost always relates to future events, such as worsening of a situation, or continuation of a situation that is unacceptable. Fear could also be an instant reaction to something presently happening.

An opinion is a subjective statement or thought about an issue or topic, and is the result of emotion or interpretation of facts. An opinion may be supported by an argument, although people may draw opposing opinions from the same set of facts. Opinions rarely change without new arguments being presented. However, it can be reasoned that one opinion is better supported by the facts than another by analyzing the supporting arguments.[1] An opinion may be the result of a person's perspective, understanding, particular feelings, beliefs, and desires. In casual use, the term opinion may refer to unsubstantiated information, in contrast to knowledge and fact-based beliefs.

So, in this rubric, its a fear in the persons mind regarding the opinion of others about him that what they will say or whether they will make any comment or whether they will appreciate him/ her etc. It might be good or bad or positive or negative. It's not the pessimistic attitude of Nat-m. It is only the fear regarding their opinion. In Nat-m because of negativity, the wretched feeling appears & they reproaches themselves. Sadness of the Nat-m is not getting expressed in the Fear, Opinion of others. That's why it is missing in this rubric. It is just like the Anticipatory anxiety.

Thanks!
