Epilepsy is the name of a class of TCM diseases, first found in the Nei Jing, and is a common clinical disorder of mental disorders. Epilepsy is characterized by mental depression, indifferent expression, silence and dementia, incoherent speech, and quietness with much joy; madness is characterized by mental hyperactivity, mania, disturbance, destruction of objects, and movement with much anger, which shows that epilepsy is dominated by yin symptoms and madness is dominated by yang symptoms, so there is an ancient saying that “those who are heavy on yin are epileptic and those who are heavy on yang are mad. However, because the two cannot be separated in clinical symptoms and can be transformed into each other, they are collectively referred to as epilepsy and mania. According to traditional Chinese medicine, the disease is caused by internal injuries caused by the seven emotions, dietary disorders, and inadequate endowment, resulting in phlegm-qi stagnation or phlegm-fire hyperactivity, which causes the organs to become uneven and the yin and yang to become unbalanced, blocking the heart orifices and reversing the mental mechanism. The disease is located in the heart and is closely related to the liver, gallbladder, spleen and stomach.
