Hysteria (AJ)


How do people let hysteria take over them?
           
            Hysteria, in its colloquial use, describes unmanageable emotional excesses. People who are "hysterical" often lose self-control due to an overwhelming fear. I think that people sometimes believe what anyone tells them; if the news is saying it or everybody in town then everyone is going to believe it. An example is when everybody was saying the world was about to end, people was letting hysteria take over them just by the words that came out of someone’s mouth. Hysteria can take over people I think it’s a feeling that someone gets when they know something bad is about to happen to them or someone they know, or something bad happen like in the crucible and no one knows how it happen, but when they figure out that it wasn’t nothing then the worries about the bad stuff goes away. Some symptoms of hysteria are respiratory problems, difficulty in maintaining a steady posture, rapid heartbeats, spells of inability to speak, spasms in the body, redness of the eyes, extreme salvation, swelling of neck muscles, clenching of the teeth, violent outbursts, and accompanied by yelling. According to Ayushveda, “Hysteric are accompanied by an inability to think rationally with a clear mind”. (Ayushveda)
