INSULIN TO QUIET ANXIETY PATIENTS

It i: now more than 2S years since Drs. Banting and Best dis- covered insulin. which prevents death from diabetes. It would seem that ever since the discovery. not a year passes but some other use L! being found for insulin.

The ﬁrst shock treatments for mental ailments were given by in- sillin, then came metrazol and later electric shOdk treatment.

One of the outstanding syrup- toms in many mental cases is fear and anxiety in which treatment by insulin shock has given excel- lent. results. There are, however. many individuals suffering with anxiety symptoms whose physlC- ian do not ﬁnd their symptoms severe enough to require insulin or other shock treatment. To allay or lessen their anxiety symptoms. which symptoms are spoiling the life of patient and fanlily. giving just enough insulin in quiet the in- dividual and reduce his fear com- plex ls suggested by Dr. G. J. Mar-

tin in “Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease.” Dr. Martin treated 210 patients

with anxiety neurosis with insulin

A control group of 1T0 similar cast-s who received no insulin was studied. Only the more PBSIIY ob- served symptoms of anxiety. such as tremulousness. restlessness. fear or apprehension. excessive perspir- ation. slceplessncss and loss of ap- petite, ivere considered in the study of the two groups. The 210 patients given insulin received an average of 55 units daiily and the average number of treatments glvecn r-ach case “'21s about 28, most pat- iPnts receiving .10 and 40 treat- ments. Aa long as the patient im- proved on the 56 units, this dose was maintained and was stopped when improvement stopped. Be- sides the insulin treatment both groups were given the usual ward treatment for anxiety symptoms.

The group given the insulin showed the greatest amount of im- provem-ent. Patients less predis- posed to nervousness and anxiety and those who had anxiety symp- toms for the shortest time, respond- ed best to insulin treatment.

Dr. Martin states that insulin is only a "part" of anxiety treatment but. helps so much that outapet- ient clinics should b: established so that patients could attend. with-

out need oif special care.

MIJOROTHY DIX ills- Unfair To Wife

Husband Gives Needed Cash To His Wasfrel Brofher

DEAR MISS DIX: I am s married women with two children. I have a husband who l: good in every way except for one fault. He gives money that we cannot afford to his brother whenever he ask! g0;- ig we are poogyworking hard trying to pay for our own home, and 1 save gvery nickel I can to help, I have brothers and sisters who are worse off than his brother, but I do not think that I would be doing right. if I gave his hard-earned money to them, and he would be furious if I did. My husband admit: that his broth- er is : waster. Do you think it l: fair for my hul- band to do this, or am I selfish in objecting to if?

PUZZLED WIFE

ANSWER: You are perfectly justified in resent- “ lrig your husband's impoverishing you for the sake J?’ of his brother. He ha: no right. to take the money ‘W that you have helped earn and that. you have saved, to give to any one else, end when he does so he l: giving you a rotten deaL

TKINKS\ IT'S III!

Of course, he think: that the money belongs exclusively f/o him be- cause h: bring: in the pay envelope, but the wife who cook: end washer and scrubs to make a comfortable home, and who does with- out all the pretty thing: that a woman loves in order to help her husband get along, has earned the money just as much as he has and has just as much right to say what shall be done with it.

No man has a right to sacrifice his wife to hi: family. When a man marries a woman the Good Book says that he should leave fath- er and mother and sister and brother and cleave only unto her. Her well being and her lafety should b: first. with him and he should not take the support that rightfully belong: to her to give fn hi: family unless there be a helpless old father or mother. Certainly he should not make hi: wife slave and economize to support able-bodied sisters and brothers.

Yet many men who think they are good men and who really love their wives or: so vLIIIHQd by their famllie: that they nevar consider th: cruel injustice they do their wive: when they let their families bleed them of every cenL

DEAR. MISS DIX: A few year: ego our parents moved to the country to live, going to a place where there are practically no young men. Our father and mother ere as kind and considerate a: possible to u:, but w: spend our time knitting and reading, and that i: no way for s girl to pas: her evenings. I have had a few dntes,.but my younger sister, who i: well on in her teens, has never had e date. Do you think our parents have given us a fair deal in faking us to a place where we have no chance of every marrying,

TWO GIRLS

ANSWER: Ne, I don't think that your father and mother have given you : fair deal. I think it i: Just es much a father's and moth- er’: duty to help their daughter: make good marriage: as it is to help their sons get. into good trades or professions.

And, obviously, a girl can't catch a husband unless there are eligible young men roaming around loose. Yet parents often seem to forget this. They will fake a girl to some Adclmlcss Eden to live and then expect some miracle to occur and a man to rise up out of the earth or descend from the skies to lead her to the altar.

In your case the best thing to do is to persuade your parents

to send you to some coeducational school, where you can study some
