For ‘wellness’, naturally is no cause of complaint–people relish it, they enjoy it, they are at the furthest pole from complaint. People complain of feeling ill–not well. Unless, as George Eliot does, they have some intimation of ‘wrongness’ or danger, either through knowledge or association, or the very excess of excess. Thus, though a patient will scarcely complain of being ‘very well’, they may become suspicious if they feel ‘too well’.
