PA R_A_D 0 X To Sufferers. NERVOUSNESS. XjS NATURE AND CUBE, Wliat is Nervousness ? VARIOUS ANSWERS '^sht be £tven to ths question, according to the constitution and knowledge of the individual. Strong* healthy pTsons, whather medically educated or not, eperally regard renousness as more or less an "imaginary complaint ;" it is sometimes only felieved to be real when the patient is found to fe dying or dead. The h*>.«t ars«wpr to the qu^sion, pw>S«bly. is thfe— ITRBVOTJS ?ESS IS &N UNNATITRAL CONDI HON OF THE NERVOtfS SYSTEM. So- crimes this unnatural state is accompanied with considerable bodily weakness, loss of fiesh and loss of strength ; but in most eases there is in the earlier st iges of tie disorder no outward sign of weakness. The stfferera are found in both sexes ; they often hive the bloom of health upon the cheek ; they sre surrounded by kind friends, vet existence to them has no charms, for they feel that they cannot enjoy it. Without inteuding it, thej annoy other people about the merest trifles ; if they encounter some person unexpecte >lv they feel confused, afraid, and alarmed; the heart beats violently, the hand shakes when writing, and the . j whole frame at times experiences a complete I trejnuloasnes?. The intellect also is sometimes clouded, the memory fails, the judgment becomes ; indistinct, the will capricious and undecided, the I taste vitiated, the imagination broo is upon uo- ! pleasant topics, the spirits are either very low or very excited, the ordinary dnti°s of life become burdensome, society 13 shunned, and business I neglected. I A STRANGE SPECTACLE.— It is eerI tainly strange, but not the les3 true, that perfectly sane persons in the prime of life, with firm step and healthy countenance, may occasions ly be met with, who ; in spite of possessing all the advantages of education, religiou, ample meaRS, I and kind friends, nevertheless are victims of the ! nervousness above described ; unhappy themi selves, they render other people unhappy. Why iis this ? What cause has operated to change I the cheerful, active, obliging, unsuspecting, and uncomplaining youth into the unhappy, drowsy, listless, suspicious, and gloomy misanthrope? M.my causes, or one cause ouly, nsay operate to produce this sad state ? the cause may be either mental or physical, or both combined. ATTEMPTS TO CUBE HERVOUSUESS by means of or Unary ronies have so fre quentiy proved fruitless, that the leading physicians now torthe most part recommend hygenic meai.s, such as exercise in the open air, regular habits, sea bathing, the cold bath friction ; ! change of air and ?cetie, as in travelling. If ail these fail, as t!n-v often do, what is to be done? THE ANSWER wi'l be foun I *>y carefully perusing the FOLLOWING WORK. Ninth Edition, Fost Free, Is 4.1.
