    💊🕯️ In Victorian England, the perfect lady wore silk, smiled politely… and was quietly medicated into oblivion. Laudanum and other “miracle cures” were prescribed for nerves, boredom, sadness, ambition, and basically existing as a woman — turning parlors into pharmacies and tea time into chemical roulette. What society called “hysteria,” doctors treated with bottles, and addiction spread behind lace curtains and respectable silence.Tonight, close your eyes and drift into a world of velvet sofas, glass vials, and very bad medical advice — where calm was compulsory, emotions were inconvenient, and madness came with a prescription.👉 Boring History For Sleep | Pills, patriarchy, and polite disaster. 💤
