A Constant Feeling of Dread

Well of All the Nerve

A 'nervous condition' accounted for many of the common complaints, especially of women, throughout the Era and most patent medicines, no matter what their particular benefit, always claimed to cure any nervous trouble associated with the malady.

But whether the origin was physiological or psychological, Dr. Hammond's Nerve and Brain Pills; as well as other similar products; was guaranteed to cure what ailed you.  But first you had to know the symptoms of 'nervous troubles', which were generic enough to include almost anyone:  This will cure you if you feel generally miserable, or suffer with a thousand and one bad feelings, both physical and mental, amoung them low spirits, nervousness, weariness, lefelessness, dizziness, feeling of fullnes, like bloating after meals, or a sense of goneness or emptiness of stomach in morning, flesh soft and lacking firmness; headache, blurring specks floating before the eyes, nervous irritablility alternating with hot flushes, throbbing, gurgling bowels, nipping pains, short breath on exertion, slow circulation of blood, cold feet, oppression in chest and back, pain around the loins, aching of the lower limbs, drowsiness after meals,  nervous wakefulness, languor in the morning, and a constant feeling of dread.
