replies: text: The situation in relation to Anna O's contractures (Breuer does not call them paralyses) is quite complex. Some of the contractures disappeared spontaneously at a time when she was recounting fantasy stories in her deepening evening states of absence, which Breuer referred to as "auto-hypnosis" in the published case history. Breuer does not claim any direct relationship between the stories and the remission of symptoms. (Original case notes, A. Hirschmüller, The Life and Work of Josef Breuer [1989], pp. 282-283, 289; Standard Edition, vol. 2, p. 29.) (When Breuer later referred to her evening states of hypnosis he was referring to these states of auto-hypnosis.) It was during one of these states of auto-hypnosis that Anna O. told Breuer that she had seen her companion's dog drinking out of a glass, which was immediately followed by the breaking of a six week period of refusing to drink water. (Hirschmüller, 1989, p. 288.) N.B. It was only after this incident, at a late stage some eighteen months after he started visiting her, that Breuer writes that he himself hypnotized the patient "in the morning" (Standard Edition, vol. 2, p. 36).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Esterson (talk • contribs) 09:58, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  What was her psychological problem? 

message: Some of this article appears to have been copied from material by a Richard Webster, whose work on Anna O is available on the web. Also, one sentence that I googled returned Australasian Psychiatry, Vol. 12 Issue 1 Page 62 March 2004 "O Anna: being Bertha Pappenheim − historiography and biography" by Robert Kaplan.
Also, I think this should be about Anna O, not the real woman. It is the case study that is famous, not the person. I therefore stubbed the article to remove any copyrightvios, and moved it to Anna O. SlimVirgin (talk)(contribs) 02:41, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Copyright violation

message: The subject of this article is usually referred to as "Anna O.", with the period after O. On Wikipedia, Anna O. redirects to this article, Anna O (with no period). Shouldn't it be the other way around? Finell (Talk) 23:06, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Anna O. suffered from Dissociative identity disorder. She had two personalities. We should mention that in the article. Masterpiece2000 (talk) 03:25, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Yeah, something is missing all right. Bertha Pappenheim is not notable merely for what is discussed here. She had a life outside Freud's institute, and she deserves to be known by her real name.
Perhaps I'll get around to doing something about it. As it stands, this article is crap. Kelisi (talk) 09:16, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  This is a laughable treatment of a very important person! 

message: I will next put the rest of her impressive biography from the German version into a separate English Wiki article entitled "Bertha Pappenheim." But give me a few days, please, she was very productive. --Remotelysensed (talk) 16:37, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  In response to the above comment 

message: Now that a "Bertha Pappenheim" entry exists in English, the "English" link at the left on the German "Bertha Pappenheim" page should go there, rather than to the English "Anna O." page.
Does anyone out there know how to accomplish that feat? I have interlinked the articles themselves, but couldn't solve the language link-up problem. Thanks in advance from --Remotelysensed (talk) 09:43, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
