What was the ancient name for neurosis, when it was first called, and why was it called neurosis?

As early as the Yin Dynasty (14th century BC to 11th century BC)

The oracle bone inscriptions contained records of illnesses such as heart disease, first disease, and doubtful disease, indicating that mental illnesses were recognized at that time.

In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period (770 B.C.-221 B.C.

The first Chinese medical monograph in Chinese history, the Nei

Jing, there was a special chapter on mental illness called "Lingshu - Epilepsy" (灵枢-癫狂).

Seems like you're talking about brain control, right? There are plenty of records of hallucinations in ancient China:

The name of the disease of ear delusion. The Spiritual Pivot - Epilepsy: "Madness, the eyes delusionally see, the ears delusionally hear." By the liver fire delusion, phlegm is lost to the heart orifices caused by the ear from time to time in the hearing of hallucinations. This is the hallucinations of today. The treatment should be clear liver heat, diarrhea heart fire, the formula is to guide the red powder and gentian diarrhea liver soup plus reduction of chemical tailoring.

From the "picking up beans therapy"

"Homework", often called "coursework" in Chinese medicine, refers to the patient's participation in work or occupational activities of medical significance. For example, in the "Ancient and Modern Troupe Book Integration - Medical Department of the whole record - medical celebrities," there is a record of this paragraph: "There is a fetus woman, the child abdominal cry, can not be cured, is pouring beans on the ground, so that the woman lowered his head to pick up, the child stopped crying."

This passage is the record of the Ming Dynasty doctor Cheng Shiguang use "picking up beans" treatment to cure "phantom hearing" a case, a pregnant woman felt the fetus crying in the abdomen, with many ways to ineffective, Cheng Mingguang so the beans scattered on the ground, the pregnant woman The woman then lowered her head to pick up the beans, and as a result, she no longer felt that her fetus was crying in her womb.

Obviously, this pregnant woman suffers from "hearing loss". The so-called "phantom hearing" is a sound that is not present in the objective reality, but is perceived by the patient, i.e., "heard". This is a kind of mental disease, according to modern psychiatric analysis, its cause may be two: pregnancy hysteria-like reaction or pregnancy schizophrenia-like performance. Cheng Shiguang used the treatment method is to let the patient focus on picking up the beans on the ground to eliminate "hallucinations" and modern psychiatric treatment of "hallucinations" of patients in the drug treatment based on the arrangement of the patient to do the weaving and other fine manual labor, so that the patient's attention to focus on their products "to focus on". Concentrate on their products "one mind, one use", at this time to ask the patient whether to hear abnormal sounds, the vast majority of the answer is "no". This easy-to-use method is called work therapy, or occupational therapy and labor therapy.

The "Nei Jing" in the "theory of strange diseases": "life and there is a disease of epilepsy, the disease is said to be what? An obtained? Answer: The disease is called fetal disease. This disease is obtained in the mother's abdomen, the mother has a great shock, the upper and lower, the essence of the gas and living, so the child hair for epilepsy." It can be seen, the ancients called schizophrenia "fetal disease", that the cause of the disease is the mother's shock and so on from the mother's fetus in the womb to bring, this is a documented theory of the genetics of the disease

Huang Di Nei Jing: madness, shock, good laughter, good song and music, delusion of the unending, get the big fear, the treatment of the hand yangming sun taiyin. The maniac, the eye delusion see, the ear delusion hear, good caller, less gas of the birth of also; the treatment of take the hands of the sun yang yin yangming, foot taiyin head of the two burberry

Epileptic and maniac, the same mental anomaly of the disease, but the cause of the disease symptoms are different, so the treatment is also different. The performance of epilepsy: laughter, incoherence, suspicion at every turn, reticence, eye delusion, ear delusion, the performance of epilepsy. The manifestations of mania are: rampant anger, scolding and cursing without avoiding relatives, abandoning one's clothes and walking away, or climbing up to a high place and singing. The Spiritual Pivot - Epilepsy Chapter says: "When epilepsy begins, the first thing that happens is stiffness, which leads to pain in the spine". "Madness begins to occur, less lying, not hungry, since the high and wise also, since the wisdom also, since the honorable also, good insults, day and night, crazy words, good shock, good laughter, good song and music, delusion of behavior never stop, the eye delusion, the ear delusion heard."

Take lead to help **. Material to help Yang Qi also. Juvenile gas and blood is strong. There is no excuse. If the weight of the lead material. With the eye of the bias is not equivalent. Then get the opposite of adding obstacles to carry on. The old man's qi and blood are declining. But this is used to cage its light. Not to be scattered. There is no need to discuss the importance of its lead material. That is, as said to see the moon is very small. The moon and even the essence of the yin. True water within the dry.
