Neurosis is composed of two Greek words Neuron means nerve and Osis means any abnormal condition. The literal meaning of neurosis is any kind of disorder or mental instability. In medical terminology, neurosis is a disease which causes anxiety, certain kind of strange and sometimes unexplained reactions towards any event, compulsive disorders, fear and phobias, sadness, depression and not but the least some sexual dysfunction too.
Neurosis was first recognized on scientific basis in 1769 when a Scottish doctor William Cullen used the term for the first time, however, it was Carl Jung which developed it on more modern and scientific bases and gave his own theory called Jung's Theory of Neurosis.
According to Jung, Neurosis is caused due to conflict between ego and unconscious when a person faces opposing attitudes. It is believed that each neurosis is unique and there is no universal method to can be applied to cure it.
However, it is believed that positive attitudes cultivated through meditation, silence and positive outlook can help to calm the nerves of person and help the brain to wander in unwanted thoughts which ultimately create disturbances and conflicting ideas and attitudes. With regular practice of meditation mind can be quite to help it concentrate on more deep issues rather than producing conflicting attitudes.
