Rogers remarks that fear constantly increases the ravages of a contagious disease.
Fear is extremely prejudical to delicate people, and above all to hypochondriacal and hysterical pa- tients, because these subjects from their excessive sensibility are susceptible of the least impressions, and the latter are continually suffering from imagi- nary ills. Tulpius tells us of an indolent man v>'ho was rendered miserable by reading medical books.
An Hypochondriac who studied under Boerhaave used to f
...ancy he had the disorder described in each lecture. The imagination of this man was indeed so powerful, that he commonly appeared to have something like the disease he had heard explained.
Fear generally increases the danger and fatality of diseases, disturbs their ordinary course, and occasions new and unusual symptoms. It weakens the powers of nature so much that the disease be- comes superior to every remedy. I remember to have seen a man ill with a miliary fever, which seemed to be going on favourably, but a sudden fright proved fatal toS um; Bw rThe died within half an hour after it happened.
