NERVOUSNESS : ITS NATURE & CURE What is 1 Nervousness ?— Yaripusanswers imght be givetf to this qiiestioij,? according to the constitution and knowledge 61 the individual.! strong , healthy persons, whether medically educated or not, generally regard nervousness as more or less an "imaginary complaint ;" it is sometimes only believed to be real when the patient is found to be dying or dead. The best answer to the question, probably, is this— Neivousness is '•_ an unnatural condition of the nervous systemi Sometimes this unnatural state is accompanied with, considerable bodily weakness, loss of flesh and loss of strength ; but in most cases there j.s, in.the. earliex stagea_of ,tha.-disorder no outward sign of weakness. The sufferers are found in both" sexes'; they often have the bloom of health upon* the cheek; they are surrounded by ,'kind frierids,lyet existeince to. them has no charms, for they feel that they cannot enjoy it. Without intending it, theyannoy other people about the merest trifles ; if they ericounter some person unexpectedly they feel confused, .afraid,, and alarmed ; the heart beats violently, the hand shakes when writing, and. the whole frame at times experiences a complete tremulousness. The jntelkct, also is. sometimes clouded, the memory fails, the judgment becomes indistinct, the will, capricious and undecided,, the taste vitiated, the imagination broods upon unpleasant' topics, the spirits are very low/ or very excited, the ordinary duties of life be- ■ come burdensome, society is shunned, and business neglected. . • A'Stange Spectacle.— lt is certainly' strange,- but not the -less true, that perfectly sane persons in the prime of ..life, with firm step and healthy couhtetiarice; may occasionally be met with, who, in spite of possessing ; all the -advantages of education, religion, ample means, and kind friends, nevertheless ■ are victims of the nervousness above de-: scribed; : unhappy themselves,' they render other people unhappy. Why is this ? What cause has operated to change the cheerful, active, obliging, unsuspecting,' and uncomplaining youth into the ''unhappy,' drowsy, listlest, suspicious, and gloomy misanthrope ! Many causes,. or one cause only, may operate ito produce this sad state ; the cause may be either mental or. physical,, or both combined! A ttempts to Cure Nervousness by means ojf ordinary tonics have so frequently proved fruitless that the leading physicians now for the most- part recommend hygienic means[ such' as exercise in the open air, regular ' habits,: sea: bathing, th6 ; cold bath, friction \ j change of air and scene, as in travelling, If j :allthese fail, asthey bfteri'do, what is to be iddne't-*' '■■•>.*■:■,>'■'■■ .::•-'■ ■■'*.'?■ •■■i'^< ■''■■<; \ ' The ' Answer will be found by carefully ' perusing, the Following Work^rn . .-.,,>■■, ' I Ninth Edition, post free Is 4d, £-* .
