The improvement commenced in April, 1915. Although still very inactive, she sometimes began to laugh and sing and talk a little to other patients. She also answered a few questions on April 22, 1915. Thus, when asked whether she wanted to go home, she said “No, I want to stay here.” (Do you like it here?) “Yes” (smiles), “I can’t get no other place; I have got to like it here.” She smiled freely. To orientation questions, she knew the place, month, but not the year. She continued inactive and above all diffident, but improved steadily and, when examined by the writer on November 15, she made a very natural impression and gave the retrospective account of the onset embodied in the history. She was quite frank, thanked the doctor for the interest he took in her case, and said for example, “You know I never thought I would get well. I quite gave up--I am very glad I am well now.” When questioned about her stay here, the patient evidently remembered much. She was able to say which wards she had been in and approximately how long she had been in each one. She claimed that at first it “seemed strange.” “I did not eat, I did not want to eat, I used to tell them to poison me and that I wanted to die, I was _disgusted_, I thought I would never go home.” She also says she felt _angry_, wanted to kill herself. She bit and scratched “because I was nervous.” She remembered talking about Harry, “I said I was in love with him, I thought I wanted to die because I could not have him.” She also talked of having been _stubborn_. Sometimes she felt like running to the river. She also claimed she imagined people were false to her.
