Causes of insanity.
30. Causes of Insanity.—Statement No. 10 exhibits the alleged causes of insanity of
lunatics admitted and treated during the year, and the number of recoveries and deaths
under each head. A cause is assigned in 61.9 per cent. of the total number admitted, and
in 60.3 per cent. of the total number treated. Of the former, 81.8 per cent. are put down
to physical, and 18.2 per cent. to moral causes; the percentages in the case of the total
treated being 82.8 and 17.2. Indian hemp is, as usual, accountable for the majority of the
cases in which a cause is assigned, the number registered under this head being 53.7 of
known causes among admissions, and 55.3 among total treated. Hereditary influences,
spirits, epilepsy, fever, and opium, are the most frequently assigned causes among physical
agencies, and grief numbers most instances among moral agencies. In the appendix the
results of the preceding 10 years are shown, and it will appear that they agree generally
with those above exhibited. Females would seem to be less frequently deranged from the
use of hemp than males, and criminal than non-criminal lunatics. Grief accounts for
nearly one-half of the female lunatics admitted for whose insanity a cause is assigned.
Gunjah-caused insanity appears to be more curable and less fatal than other forms of
madness, and insanity caused by moral influences gives a lower recovery rate and higher
death-rate than that due to physical causes.
