A lonely, dejected man sat in the office of Dr. James Hamilton, a British physician who practiced in Manchester, England. The patient told of a sickness which he said was taking his very life. "I am frightened of the terror of the world around me. I am depressed by life. I can find no happiness anywhere. Nothing amuses me, and I have nothing to live for." He continued, saying, "If you can't help me, I shall kill myself."
