इष्टद्रव्यविनाशात्तु मनो यस्योपहन्यते। तस्य तत्सदृशप्राप्तिसान्त्वाश्वासैः शमं नयेत् ॥८५॥

॥ Therapies in mental trauma patients॥ If the mental derangement is due to the loss of some dearly loved object, he should be pacified by consoling and assuring him by providing a similar thing. Simultaneously, he should be consoled by pleasant assurances (by family members and friends) as a result of which he recovers from illness.
