As I read, one of the things that impressed me much was that in case after case the nervous break down was ushered in by weeks or months of i severe insom nia, when the person could not get to sleep. - In many of these cases, the person might have been spar ed years of suffering if, in this early stage of his mental trouble, he had only been able to find a sensible and kindly physician who knew how dev astating insomnia' can be, and how safe -for all but rare persons - barbituartes can be. Perhaps because, for half of my life, I suffered from se vere insomnia, I am a great believer in giving barbiturat es, in reasonable amounts, to persons who have great diffi culty either in getting to sleep or in staying asleep. . Many of my doctor friends who always have slept like a top say, "Oh, let him lie awake. After a while he'll learn to sleep." The only trou ble with this idea is that those of us men who, each day, have to go to an office and work hard, or those mothers who, each day, must start early, keeping- house, cannot be efficient a f t e several nights without sleep. In many hundreds of cases I have been able to- help a nervous person only by help ing him or her to get some sleep again. Only with sleep did there come great relief from nervous tension and anxiety and fear. . I was thinking of this to day as I read an article in the Journal of the American Me dical association, by Drs. John T. Brauchi and L. J. West. They tell of a man who bet -a friend that he could stay awake longer than his friend could. He succeeded in staying awake - always Emeritus Consultant in Medicine Mto CUnle Imenrot Professor of Medlcla Hat CUata watched by responsible peo ple - for 168 hours and 33 minutes. The important point is that, during the process, he became psychotic and confus ed. His memory began to play tricks on him, and he got some delusions. What was sad was that he didn't get straightened out again men tally until three-months after his week of no sleep! The lesson is that anyone who gets so lit-up nervously that for days and weeks he cannot get to sleep should see a good doctor, who will give him barbiturates. FLAT FEET A mother writes to say she is worried about her fine boy who is all right except that he has flat feet. She wants to know if he should immediate- Hy have something done. I don't know enough about the boy's situation to give an an- answer. All i can say is, "Take him to a good orthope dist and see what he says." Probably now the boy is not having any discomfort, and perhaps he won't for the next 30 or 40 years, unless he has to stand all day. When he does get pain, perhaps an or thopedist can remodel his feet to some extent so that he will be more comfortable. In the meantime he should get the most hygenic shoes he can find. i m - ' ..... . . . 1 ' Dr. Alvarez booklet on mental illness may be obtain ed by sending 25 cents and a large, stamped, self-addressed envelope with your request to Dr. Walter C.
