This is a good question. In Victorian Society, a case of the vapors meant the lady was farting. I've always thought that was such a funny thing to call it.

AnswerThe term "the vapors" was used to describe a nervous disorder such as depression or hysteria.

I was under the impression it was a short (perhaps intentional..?) moment where a woman faints or is unable to keep herself up.. :)
