Summary
[edit]DescriptionInsanity B.jpg |
English: Case B. — W. D. Recurrent mania. High-grade, boy; 10 years
old. Well-formed, clear rosy complexion, dark brown hair, and blue eyes. Has been at school since his sixth year. Can read, write, cipher, and knit, but powers of attention and imitation poor ; is slow and backward. Speech perfect, excellent memory and vocabulary. Is obstinate, passionate, disobedient, and seems destitute of natural affection. Is fond of sitting apart, making grimaces, casting furtive glances and muttering to himself : " Fiend incarnate," " I am a per- fect Turk," " Dirty pig," " Look at the old frog sitting in the corner," "Fool, fool, fool." Music affects him peculiarly ; will scream, kick and cry when he hears it, although at times will sing. Has periodical outbursts of mania, when, while sitting quietly talking to himself, will start up suddenly with wild eyes, singing snatches of songs, beating himself and attacking viciously other children. For long periods will refuse food. Second child ; born at full term ; normal labor, nourished by mother, who was 27 and father 32 at time of child's birth. Has one brother considered peculiar. History of insanity in family of father,who, a monomaniac, abandoned wife to join a religious community. |
