When in the negative Sweet Chestnut state, this is one of the most extremely negative states that the soul can be in. The sufferer is experiencing deep mental anguish and torment and feels like there is no end to their suffering. The person feels helpless, empty and unprotected. They have been determined to not give up but nothing has worked. It is an intense form of suffering that pushes one to the limits.
Unlike Gorse, where the person has given up when there are still possibilities available to them, with Sweet Chestnut the person has genuinely reached the end of the line. They have tried every avenue and nothing has worked. It is a final despair.
At this extreme point of suffering, this can often make way for new stages of life and an opening may present itself to you. A transformation or new start after a deep period of difficulty.
The positive potential of Sweet Chestnut is to feel hope and lift sadness.

Depression is a debilitating mental illness that can interfere with all aspects of daily life, from our relationships to our professional success. While there are many different approaches to managing depression, from conventional medications to alternative therapies like acupuncture and meditation, one increasingly popular option is the use of Bach flower remedies.
These natural plant-based extracts are designed to help address the underlying emotional and psychological causes of depression and other mood disorders, rather than simply treating the symptoms. In addition, many people like the fact that Bach flower remedies can be used in conjunction with other treatments in order to create a more holistic approach to managing depression. Overall, Bach flower remedies are an effective, safe, and natural alternative for those struggling with depression.
