SELFISH N ESS-H YSTERIA
Little Talks on Health and Hygiene
by Samuel O. Dixon, M. D., LL.
P., Commissioner of Health
One cannot say that selfishness is re
sponsible for nervousness ami yet un
questionably it is often a considerable
factor in causing nervous ailments.
The self-centered individual who is
continually thinking of h'is own comfort
and who manifests annoyance over ev
ery trifle w'hicb interferes with his par
ticular occupation or activity, is run
ning a decided risk. With advancing
age a marked degree of irritability is
almost sure to follow. v
If a selfish attitude is cultivated and
consideration is demanded for individ
ual wlhims without consideration for
others, this readily grows to 'he little
less than a mania. Our nervous systems
aro delicately adjusted and onee the
mind weakens its control it is apt to
•become a factor for ipain and discom
fort.
In the beginning many of the things
which "get on our nerves" do not
really distress us. We note thorn
casually. With their repetition comes
the selfish wish to have our individual
comfort considered without regard for
general conditions. If we give way to
this, the most trifling occurrences hold
the possibility of causing infinite an
noyance.
The greatest, number of sufferers from
Mirvous diseases are not as might be
exj-eeted, overworked individuals, but
ire commonly enough, people who have
little or nothing to do and for want
of activity devote too muoh time to
thinking of self.
It is common to lied* some irri'taiMe
individual say, "so and so gets 011 my
nerves" and the very manner of the
speaker has an equally irritating effect
upon the unfortunate auditors. Nervous
irritability and selfishness I>eget their
like. They are contagious.
Let us be unselfish and avoid the
spreading of this all 'too common com
nlairt.
