Hey - I tried to leave you a comment on 'Darkvictoria', but it says the post has been taken down? Anyway, I wanted to recommend you a book for the topic you're studying. The book is called "Shattered Nerves" and as I recall it's edited by Sally Shuttleworth (watch out for anything by her - always relevant to Victoriana and very readable). It's a history of the phenomenon of mental illness and treatments, it's very enjoyable.
