MIND.
►
Emotional. ► Mental
exaltation, lasting twelve hours, with almost uninterrupted delirium, [29]. ►
At times the child became suddenly excited, and could scarcely be
quieted; with a wild look, [66]. ► Intoxication, [19]. [From Hyoscyamus physaloides. -Hahnemann.] ► Mental derangement, with occasional
altercations, [31]. [Original
revised by Hughes.] ► He became
excited, and incoherent in his speech, wandered purposelessly about the
house, muttering and touching things, as though suspicious of those
about him (three hours); he became delirious, was policemen coming into
the house; hear them speaking about him in the hall; his hands were constantly in motion,
seemingly trying to rub his face or brush something away; was very
irritable; he did not attempt to answer any questions, but occasionally muttered a few disjointed words
(about five hours after first dose), [92].
► Foolishness, [68]. ►
Insania, [9]. [Omit Greding.
-Hughes.] ► Mania, he could scarcely
be governed, [42]. [Not found.
-Hughes.] ► Madness, as if possessed
by a devil, [31]. [10.] ► He
roves about senseless, naked, wrapped in fur during the heat of summer, [21a]. ►►
*Ravings, [69]. ► Ravings, [40].
[Original revised, and Greding omitted by Hughes.] ►
A thousand fancies hover before his imagination, [33]. ►
Thought he was in his own home, and desired to go out and make visits, [5]. ►►
*Delirium, [8], [27], [46].
[In Wedele’s case, with red face. -Hahnemann.] ►
*Delirium, with physical restlessness, [66]. ►►
*Delirium and restlessness; would not stay in bed, [75]. ►
Complete delirium, [62].
► Most lively delirium, [79]. [20.]
► Wild delirium, [68]. ►
He is delirious, as in violent fever, [42].
► State of delirium bordering on
insanity (in two); so violent that it required six persons to hold (in
the third), (after two hours), [83].
► *Busy delirium, with constant muttering
or talking, and meddling with the hands (after one hour), [58]. ►
Delirious, but easily controlled; could understand questions when asked,
and would answer yes or no, at 2 P.M.; delirious most of the time, would
answer and seem to know for a moment, and then would commence his
strange actions; *working and clutching of the
hands, would strike his attendants; his movements were very quick; it
was with difficulty that they could hold him on their laps;
at 4 P.M., greatly excited, talking about everything, cannot fix his
attention upon anything, cannot be held; he is now on the floor watched
by those in attendance; *he wants to fight, he
closes his hands and strikes at his attendants, also attempts to bite;
at intervals he would sing, and at times would burst out laughing; when
anything is offered him he clinches hold of it with both hands greedily;
the slightest opposition excites him, at 8 P.M.; it was after 3 A.M.,
before he became quiet and disposed to rest, [91]. ►
Singular union of delirium and coma, usually termed typhomania; one of
them was exceedingly delirious, and attempted to escape, [95]. ► *At times
the child made violent exertions to get out of bed, tried to bite, and
raged, after which she began to weep aloud; while lying she
turned the head right and left, at times raised it up, and snapped as if
she would take hold of something, [66].
► Momentary listening to imaginary
sounds, and eager clutching at visionary phantoms, [59]. ► The
people in the room seemed to assume grotesque appearances; this
condition lasted half an hour, and was succeeded by noisy and then by
quiet delirium; several hours later she was sitting in the corner of the
room, muttering to herself, and rocking her body to and fro; now catching at the air, or at some imaginary
appearance, then pulling the bed-clothes about, and answering
either not at all or incorrectly, [36].
[30.] ►
In his confused fancy he thinks men are swine, [37]. ►
Occasional catching at surrounding objects, [58]. ►►
*Carphologia, [68]. ► *Carphologia and muttering, [14]. ►
He taps himself upon his head, face, and nose, and gropes about the bed
in his carphologia, [24]. [Add
“in nervous fever.” -Hughes.] ►
Gesticulations, [21]. ► Gesticulates like an actor, [37]. [Translated harlekin,
“actor.” -Hughes.] ►► *He
makes ridiculous gestures like a dancing clown, [21a]. ►
*Ridiculous gestures like one intoxicated, [21]. ► *Foolish
actions, [21]. [40.] ►
[Laughable, solemn actions mingled in the raving, in an improper dress],
[21b]. [In a priest’s gown over
his shirt and in fur stockings he wishes to go to church, in order to
preach and says mass, and furiously attacks those who endeavor to
prevent him. -Hahnemann. See note to S. 68. -Hughes.] ►► *Comical alienation of mind; they perform
ludicrous actions like monkeys, [10]. ► In his
delirium he acts as though he were frightening away peacocks with his
hands, [48]. ►
In his raving he acts as though he were cracking nuts, [48]. ► He
embraces the stove, and wishes to climb upon it as on a tree, [48]. ►►
*[He strips himself naked], [20].
(Case 15). ► He dances, [14]. ►
Danced, ran about the room and attempted to take hold of different
objects without being able to grasp them; she stared vacantly about her,
and did not hear or reply to any questions; it required several men to
hold her in bed (in the one who had eaten the least), [93]. ►
Laughed and said he was exceedingly well, [75].
► Joined the women in laughter, [86]. [50.]
► She began to laugh, dance, run
around the room and grasp at things, which usually she never touched;
she stared at the bystanders, heard nothing, and answered no questions;
several men were unable to make her drink or lie down; with pale face,
rapid pulse, free respiration dilated pupils, and great injection of the
capillaries of the eye; this madness lasted till the next day, with
complete sleeplessness; the vertigo, stupefaction, and incoherent ideas
lasted for several days, [63]. ► *Frequent breaking out into a loud laugh,
[66]. ►
[Almost uninterrupted loud laughter, previous to the appearance of
menstruation], [20]. (Case 39). ► They laughed aloud because all persons
seemed ridiculous; this lively mood continued for half an hour, with
violent gesticulations, and was followed by quiet delirium; the old
woman talked of the future, swayed the body back and forth, groped in the air as after objects, picked at the bed,
and either did not answer at all or in a disconnected manner, [94]. ►►
*Foolish laughter, [36].
[Original revised by Hughes.] ►
Forced laughing, with confused ideas, [68].
► *She sang constantly and talked
hastily, but indistinctly; was very violent, and beat about
her if she was spoken to strongly or taken hold of, [79]. ► Very
merry mood, completely delirious; singing and imitating with her hands
the occupation of spinning, [70]. ► *He sings amorous and obscene songs, [21a]. ►►
*He talks more than usual, and more animatedly and hurriedly,
[4]. [60.]
► Great mental vivacity, such as he
had not exhibited for years, with perpetual talking during twenty-four
hours, night and day. During the whole of the night he engaged the
nurse’s attention and interest by recounting the adventures of a friend
in the Peninsular campaign. Throughout the next day he was intent upon
taking a journey, but if any incident in his past life were suggested,
he entered minutely into every particular, talking incessantly, with
unwonted rapidity and emphasis. He used the simplest and most
descriptive language, and he was quite independent of conversation, for
it was necessary, in order to avoid any increase of excitement, to treat
him with silence. Once a subject was named, no matter whether the
attendant circumstances occurred the previous day or fifty years ago, it
immediately engaged his attention until some incidental remark or an
allusion suggested other ideas. If a subject with which he was not
wholly familiar happened to be mentioned, but then became confused,
incoherent, and a little irritable and impatient. The connecting links
in a particular train of thought were weakened and occasionally broken
by illusions and delusions. The sight of a white napkin suggested
through milk, his former breakfasts in India; the milking of the cow at
the door of the house; the appearance of the frothed milk in the silver
basin; the tea freshly imported from China. His white handkerchief lying
crumpled on the dark sofa-cover recalled the ivory nut, and he entered
into a minute and faithful description, not only of this plant, its
habits and fruit, but the characters of several other tropical
vegetables. Then he wandered into the country, and suddenly pulling up a
leg, exclaimed, “Take care; give me your hand; that is a very deep
step.” The next minute he introduced himself, with a loud voice, in
a friend’s house at Torquay, and, while engaged in imaginary
conversation, suddenly raised the eyelids, and looking across the empty
space in the direction of the bare wall said, with much emphasis,
“That’s a fine dahlia!” A few minutes afterwards he was
engaged in Bristol. Several times he directed the carriage to be sent
for, and supposing that it was at the door, made attempts to rise from
his couch, [58]. ► He talks about incoherent things, [42]. [Original revised by Hughes.] ► *While awake he talks irrationally, as if a man
was present (who was not), [1].
► *He talks in an absurd way, [24]. ►
[Prattling], [20]. (Case 6). ►► *He lies naked in bed and prattles,
[20]. (Case 7). ► [He prattles and gets ready for a
journey], [20]. (Case 7). ► [He prattles and makes preparations for
his wedding], [20]. (Case 7). ► [They almost all prattle about those
things which wise men would have kept to themselves], [21b]. [“From a clyster of Hyoscyamus, with
turpentine and carminatives.” -Hughes.] ►
Chattering incessantly, and without any meaning in their words; they
began to leap and dance as in chorea, and all the time they seemed not
to know any of their family (after eight hours), [72]. [70.] ► *Constant unintelligible chattering, [80]. ►
*He mutters and prattles to himself, [30]. ► *He
mutters absurd things to himself, [48]. ► In
speaking, used very fine language, so that the usually quiet and
indolent peasant was scarcely recognized, [75].
► Frequent moaning and groping about
with outstretched fingers, as though something would be suddenly seized,
[80]. ►
The child passed whole nights in frightful screams and tossing about, [71]. ►
Depressed, sad, [24]. ► (He reproaches himself, and has
conscientious scruples), [1]. ► (He considers himself a criminal), [1]. ►
Anxiety, [27], [43]. [80.] ► Anxiety, soon after dinner, as though a
sad occurrence impended (after six hours), [2]. ► The
utmost anxiety, [46]. [Original
revised by Hughes.] ► [In despair, he
wishes to drown himself], [20].
(Case 37). ► Extreme fearfulness, [1]. ►
Chronic fear, [11]. ► Excessive fear of death, becoming a
monomania, and only disappearing after six months, leaving behind great
nervous irritation, [62]. ► [He complained that he had been
poisoned], [24]. [“Merely a
statement of the truth.” -Hughes.] ►
Remarkable fear that he had been devoured by animals, [11]. [Original revised by Hughes.] ► *Dread of drinks, [14]. ► *Dread of
water, [6]. [90.] ► On
being aroused, he muttered and became irritable; on attempting to make
him drink, he resented it violently, and soon fell into a state of
hallucination, in which his countenance assumed a menacing aspect, and
he called on various absent persons by name, with whom he imagined
himself to be in debate, [89]. ► [Irritable, morose, angry], [20]. (Case 37). (Original revised by
Hughes.) ► Impatient; he thought he
should die, because he was obliged to wait for something very
unimportant, [4]. ► Morose, sad (second day), [4]. ► *He
reproaches others, and complains of a supposed injury done him,
[1]. ►
*Quarrelsomeness, [1]. ► Quarrelsome, [21]. ►
Quarrelsome and insulting, [27]. ► Insulting, quarrelsome, disputing, [21c]. ►
Part of a leaf of henbane will urge a man on to violence and to passion,
[82]. [100.] ►
Under its influence the mildest and gentlest beings become highly
irascible, and subject to uncontrollable fits of anger, [82]. ► Rage;
he quarrels with others, and tries to injure them, [1]. ► [He
passes the day and night in violent rage, naked, sleepless, and
screaming], [20]. (Case 40). ► Extreme rage; he attacks people with
knives, [30]. ► Indomitable rage, [14]. ►
Patients who have taken it, and not in large quantities, have been
known, upon the slightest provocation, to fly into most violent
passions, and to become perfectly, but fortunately momentarily, mad with
rage, [82]. ►
He lays violent hands upon others, [21c].
►► *He is violent, and beats people,
[21c]. ►
Strikes and tries to kill the bystanders, [37].
► *They bit, scratched, and nipped every
one who interfered with them (after eight hours), [72]. [110.]
► Jealousy, [1]. ►
[Alternations of quiet and rage], [20].
(Case 19). ► [Extremely lively and
merry (first day); morose, and extremely inclined to quarrel], (second
day), [3]. ► Intellectual. ► *He is quiet, reflective, [1]. ►
Disinclination to mental work, [55].
► Disinclination to think and work, [59]. ►
Disinclination to study, the whole afternoon (second day), [56]. ►
Aversion to reading, [55]. ► Inability to fix the attention on any
subject, which lasted two days; every attempt to overcome this was
followed by confusion and headache, [60].
► Was unable to collect his thoughts
while reading, [56]. [120.] ►
Incoherent thoughts, with extreme excitement, [62]. ►
Disconnected words, [46]. ► *While reading, he interpolates improper words
and sentences, [48]. ► At times the ideas stand still (second
day), [4]. ►
Inability to think (second day), [53].
► The head is very much affected,
like a loss of ideas; he is averse to everything and sleeps several
hours in the afternoon (without dreams), frequently half awake (after
nine hours), [5]. ► Inclined to forget himself in his
thoughtless gazing at objects (after half an hour), [2]. ► [He
does not answer], [20]. (Case 8). ► The child answered in an unintelligible
manner, [66]. ► Confusion, dulness of sense, [17]. [130.]
► Confusion of the sense, weakness of
sight, and some difficulty in speaking; a by no means disagreeable
state, like slight intoxication (seven hours after 1 3/4 grains), [59]. ►
Was obliged to cease reading on account of distraction of mind and
sleepiness (though he has slept well through the night) at 6 A.M. (after
one hour), [56]. ► She was incapable of comprehending what
was said to her, [70]. ► Stupidity, [46].
► Far more stupid, and sunk in
constant sleep, [20]. [Original
revised by Hughes.] ► Mind extremely
shattered, [16]. ► Idiotic, senseless, [30]. ►
Amentia, [22], [42], [44],
[48]. ►
Remembrance of long-past events, [1].
[Curative action? -Hahnemann.] ► He
remembers persons and occurrences which he does not try to recollect
(after half an hour), [2]. [140.] ►
Weakness of memory, [1]. ► Loss of memory, [28]. ► Loss
of memory; he remembers what he has thought and done in the last few
days only as in a dream (after twenty-four hours), [5]. ►
Complete loss of memory, [1]. ► He forgets everything which he has
previously heard, [47]. [Not
found. -Hughes.] ► Inability to
remember, even for a minute, a single sentence or word she may read
(after some days), [90]. ► Forgetfulness; he is uncertain whether he
has really said what he wished to say (after a quarter of an hour), [2]. ►
He easily recalls circumstances which he does not care to, and
recollects with difficulty occurrences which he tries to remember (after
three hours), [2]. ► He does not recognize the bystanders, [16], [42],
[46]. ►
