DescriptionPsychic Epilepsy A.jpg |
English: Case A. — H. D. Male ; middle grade ; 23 years old. Came to us
when 14 years old. Head well-formed, brown hair and eyes, sight and hearing perfect, excellent vocabulary, and is active, noisy, and at' times obstinate. Powers of attention, imitation, and memory fair. Does excellent work in school ; can read and write, but has attacks of nervous excitement followed by prolonged periods of automatism — sometimes lasting for days — during which, uncon- scious of what he is doing, he simply walks as in a dream ; will stand in one place until told to sit ; will eat when commanded, but does nothing of his own volition. For the time being he is a veritable automaton, but when the attack passes he is again bright and active. Very deft with fingers, he is quite useful in the carpenter shop, and in domestic work. Eighth child ; nourished by mother. Father, a drunkard — by trade a harness-maker — aged 44 and mother 38, at time of H.'s birth.Mother was at one time insane. H. had a fall during infancy. |
