Source: # Charaka Samhita, Chikitsa Sthana 9.6 *Perverted intellect, agitation of sattva, restless eyes, impatience, incoherent speech, and a vacant heart-mind — these are the common marks of unmada.* धीविभ्रमः सत्त्वपरिप्लवश्च पर्याकुला दृष्टिरधीरता च । अबद्धवाक्त्वं हृदयं च शून्यं सामान्यमुन्मादगदस्य लिङ्गम् ॥ *dhi-vibhramah sattva-pariplavas ca paryakula drstir adhirata ca | abaddha-vaktvam hrdayam ca sunyam samanyam unmada-gadasya lingam ||* Perverted intellect, agitation of sattva, restless eyes, impatience, incoherent speech, and a vacant heart-mind — these are the common marks of unmada. Compare with thought disorder, agitation, and emptiness in modern psychosis chapters. Charaka also writes apasmara (Nidana 8; Chikitsa 10) as episodic loss of memory/consciousness with frightening movements — closer to seizure than to everyday forgetfulness. Do not self-label either.
