NERVOUSNESS : ITS NATURE & CURE ' What is Nervousness?— Various answers might be given to this question, according to the constitution arid .knowledge ofithe individual. Strong healthy persons, whether medically educated or not, generally regard! nervousness as more or less an "imaginary! complaint ;"rit is sometimes only believed to I be real when the patient is found to be dying ' or dead. The best answer to- the question, probably, is this— Nervousness is an unnatural condition oftlie nervous system. Sometimes this urinaturaFsiate J is accompanied with considerable bodily weakness, loss of flesh and loss;of strength ;' but in most cases there is in the earlier stages of the 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 friends, yet existence to theiri has no charriis; 7 f or ! they feel that they cannot enjoy it. Without intending it, they annoy other people about the merest triflSs ; if they encounter 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 treriralbusness. The intellect . 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 become 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 countenance, 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 to produce this sad state ; the cause may be either mental or physical; or both combined. A ttempts to Cure Nervousness by means of 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, the cold bath friction ; change of air arid scene, as in travelling. If all these fail, .as they often dp, what is tobe done? -■; :;" ;: ' ; ; v ; ■■''■'■.• ''■. ; ;- :: :-' ;- ; The Answer will be found by carefudy perusing the Following Work': l^ - - : Ninth Edition," post free Is 4d, • • .
