The Treatment of Mania

Extract

During 1931, 1932 and 1933 at least 20 female cases of mania were admitted to the Warwick County Mental Hospital, and I propose to review the treatment of these cases, omitting melancholia because of the difficulty of excluding involutional illnesses, because mania is more difficult to treat (1), and finally because the results of treatment are easier to follow.
