Aleister Crowley AMRITA Treatment Sunday, 26 February 1933
Report at end of Fifth Week.
Sex life very actively restored—on the day after the second dose of the Elixir.
Stricture wholly gone.
Asthma somewhat changed in character but still persists.
Nerves: after the second dose of Elixir his thoughts became robust and juvenile. For instance, if snow were threatened, he begun at once to think of ski, and to wish that he could go at once to snow countries. On waking early he would not bewail his sleeplessness, but only that in London there is no convenient means of going out and taking exercise at that hour.
The pulse is now that of a young man of 35, the spine that of a man of 40. The hair is now growing out quite black, and new hair is invading the bald patch.
On Sunday, February 26th, he took a dose of the Elixir specially prepared as against Asthma and Bronchitis. On Monday morning he had the sudden feeling that he was definitely cured—not merely that the condition was improved—and when he arrived at Great Portland Street this was found to be a manifest fact. (The only obstruction left was to be discovered only on very deep expiration: this, however, may make it necessary to administer at least one more dose of the Elixir at a later stage).
