Does anyone know, does this rubric just mean like when a person completely spaces out, "lost in thought", or is it something different?

Thanks,
Shannon

I looked up Vanishing of senses in EH, and found most references have to do with vertigo, faintness and the 5 senses.

Lynn
Examples:
Sensation of vertigo and vanishing of the senses, on waking at night; continues to get worse while lying, and obliges him to involuntarily rise (this condition was frequently repeated during the provings)
Violent vertigo, with stupefaction, so that his senses almost vanished and he was in danger of falling forward,
Attack of faintness while lying, with vanishing of the senses and about
Giddiness, with heaviness of the head and vanishing of the senses.
the sense of smell seems to have almost totally vanished, though the nose is not stopped
the convulsions returned three or five times daily, and were preceded by anxiety and extension of the limbs in a recumbent posture; these symptoms were followed by an almost complete vanishing of the senses, and by shocks which forced the body out, jerking the head upwards
The senses seem to vanish and he becomes feeble-minded and absent-minded with great weakness of memory.
Vanishing of thought and senses, as if in delirium

When you look up sensorium in the repertory, it refers you to Senses

I looked in Analytical Repertory of the Symptoms of the Mind, by Hering
and found
Sensorium
Oversensitiveness and irritability of the brain and senses, noises, apparent motions or movements; other unpainful sensations.
Vertigo and all its concomitants and conditions
Dullness, heaviness, cloudiness, apathetic state, unconsciousness.
Asphyxia

Ah thanks! I should have thought to try that...
So sort of like fainting without losing consciousness--I'll read more. Thanks again.

Hello Shannon

Did you mean to enquire about the rubric listed "Mind; RESTLESSNESS,
NERVOUSNESS; NIGHT" or the title of the post " Vanishing of senses" ?

Without waiting for your answers, just a quick thought. Mind is the
owner of the senses which, in turn are owners of the physical limbs. Do
we not say, ' my body, my senses, my mind, my intellect". The entity
which KNOWS or COGNIZES the other in the above list is the higher one.
The body knows not the senses but the reverse is correct. Same way,
senses know not the mind but the mind knows the senses. The intellect
knows the mind and controls it. Beyond it are the pure ego and above all
is the Self.

So, in essence, thought is a part of mind and above senses. 'Senses,
vanishing' might at best be a general phenomenon and cannot find a place
in the Mind section.

Senses, vanishing, is a collective general rubric and denotes a point
when the senses collectively fail or temporarily are blunted.

Sorry, I was indeed asking about "vanishing of senses", and abashed to have accidentally copied the wrong rubric and didn't even notice!! Yikes, need to slow down...

The "Vanishing" rubric in my rep is under the Mind section, and similar one under Generals just cross-refs to Mind. I see what you mean, tho, about why generals might be more appropriate.

Well, I think I do have a better sense now of what the rubric means--thanks again!
