Neurasthenia is a general fatigue due to the depletion of nervous energy, according to the American neurologist George Miller Beard (1839-1883). The world is full of neurasthenic beings. The neurasthenic type is critical, irritable, and also intolerable. There are many causes of neurasthenia: impatience, anger, selfishness, pride, arrogance, etc. A neurasthenic person is one who suffers from Neurasthenia. This term of Greek etymological origin was widely used in the past, and in German it meant "nervous weakness."
Etymologically, the word Neurasthenia derives from the Greek, and is made up of "neuro" which means " nerve ", the prefix "a" which means "without" and "asthenia" which means vigor, strength,
Neurasthenia was defined as general fatigue due to the depletion of nervous energy due to prolonged and excessive expenditure that caused weakness and fatigue in the CNS of the person suffering from it. The psychoanalysis was the first to demonstrate that a large part of the clinical pictures called neurasthenic were due to psychological causes, and also showed that neurasthenia was curable. Neurasthenia is common in men between the ages of 25 and 50
Neurasthenics were described as people who were easily physically and mentally fatigued, had hoof headaches, intestinal disorders, insomnia, premature ejaculation, painful sensation in the back, that is (spinal pain, which was called " spinal irritation ", without having something pathological in the spinal cord), painful laxity of the joints upon awakening, vasomotor and sensitive disorders (paresthesia), palpitations, sweating, etc.
It is a feeling of exhaustion that arises not from having made great efforts, but from daily challenges that weaken the person in an extreme way, to the point of experiencing muscle pain. One of the symptoms of this disorder is having a feeling of great emotional instability, that is, this instability leads to insecurity. The person may also have trouble relaxing and being one hundred percent calm.
In the face of any physical or emotional discomfort, in any context, it is important to pay attention to the signs of symptoms that are shown in the initial phase of a disease, because the sooner a specific disease begins to be treated, the higher the quality of life will be. patient wins.
It should be noted that the feeling of physical fatigue and apathy is not derived as a cause and effect in neurasthenia as it is also possible for a patient to feel low in energy as a result of suffering from depression or other illness.
