How do Bach flower remedies work?
I was told to take willow to ease some 'emotional baggage' but I feel worse now than I did before? is that a normal reaction?
Should i persivere?
This page might explain the principle behind them:
http://www.bachcentre.com/centre/simple.htm
Regarding feeling worse at first, the Bach Flower Remedies website might cover that in their FAQs but I couldn't find anything from a quick browse:
http://www.bachremedies.co.uk/faq2.aspx
Their first page does say this: "they work by treating the individual rather than the disease or its symptoms." [quoted verbatim]
http://www.bachremedies.co.uk/default.aspx
That could suggest that perhaps Willow might not be the right one for you or perhaps you need a combination as they often work better in combination. Persevere for a little longer but if it still does not help then try something else. Or it could be that you need something else alongside the Willow. This list [scroll down the page] might help you decide:

Willow is listed as being for self pity and resentment. What about Honeysuckle [for living in the past] or Agrimony [for mental torture behind a cheerful face ] or a combination ?
Or here is an Australian Bush Remedy [a combination of Bauhinia, Bush Iris, Bottlebrush, Dagger Hakea, Dog Rose and Wild Potato Bush] for Emotional Baggage:
