Neurasthenia was viewed as a reflection of the natural superiority of the American culture and a product of the progress and refinement of modern civilisation; treatments included cold water cures, diets, exercise, arsenic and many others. nervous exhaustionBeard,George Miller, U.S. physician, 1839-1883.nervous exhaustion
