Rest Not Advisable in Nervous Weakness

Dr. George J. Wright argues that rest cures are fading and doctors now prescribe work cures. Nervous weakness often stems from physical defects or infections that reduce reserve strength and hinder repair, making normal activity impossible. Emotional disturbances worsen the condition. headaches, stomach distress, neck pain, or choking feelings may arise from nerves rather than overwork. Work and worry exhaust, but work alone is not harmful. Individual mental strength varies, and quiet lives may mask weakness until a crisis such as war forces overexertion leading to breakdown.
