2: An Epidemic Of Hysterics, William St. Clare, 1787 AD
Naturalists and Physicians may . . . consider of it; Whether it be probable or possible, that naturall Ecstasies and Enthusiasms, such as proceed from naturall causes merely, should be contagious: though not contagious in the same manner, as the Plague, or the Pox is; yet contagious in their kind'. But very few epidemics of insanity, hysterics, dancing mania or tarantism such as occurred on the Continent were recorded in England and the few were limited to small and closely knit communities. A famous one was described by John Freind (1675- 1728), MD Oxon, FRCP, FRS, first English historian of medicine, in a letter `De Spasmi Rarioris Historia' in The Philosophical Transactions, 1701, popularly known as the case of 'the barking girls of Oxford'. The children of two related families of Blackthorn had for some months been seized by frequent attacks of `barking and howling like dogs . . . accompanied by violent rhythmic movements of the head and contortions of the face . . . when their ... ...

3: Historical overview of Psychiatry: 1550 BC - 2010 AD
Egyptians wrote a book of medicine. It is likely a copy of a much older book, but it is quite fascinating to realize just how much the ancients knew about the human body and various diseases. While the cures were no better than a witches brew with "eye of newt", they did understand the various diseases. The only reference to anything coming close to psychiatry is in the section on the heart where anger and sadness are discussed. Biopsychiatrists love to quote the papyrus as proof that the Egyptians believed depression was caused by bodily diseases. But this is simply untrue. In fact the opposite is true. The Egyptians understood that anger and sadness caused body diseases in the heart. The papyrus reads: "When his Heart is afflicted and has tasted sadness, behold his Heart is closed in and darkness is in his body because of anger which is eating up his Heart." (The Egyptian Medical Ebers Papyrus: 1550 BC) Jumping forward 3000 years... In 1558 AD, William Bullein stated that rejection ... ...

4: Sin was viewed as the cause (etiology) of mental illness
Christian Reil suggested that the Cat Piano was the cure for insanity. It worked by seating the insane in front of the Cat Piano, as someone played, sanity would be restored. Reil suggested this clever and imaginative hyperbole, in order to drive home his point, that insanity was a spiritual problem not a bodily problem. Doctors before the 19th century, knew less than a typical thirteen year old today, who dissected a few raccoons on his back yard picnic table and experimented with his chemistry set he got for Christmas!
