If you are neurotic you are like the rest, psychotics do not necessarily delusion or have hallucinations – that’s just schizophrenics – they are freer beings, who do not seek to be just another piece.

Good discerning people =) how are you… I was reading and in my opinion, the Neurotic, if it is true, is aware that he lives in reality and looks for ways, methods, even strategies, among other things to satisfy anxiety and anguish. itself, yes? For example, they tend to talk to themselves in the mirror for like 6 hours without stopping, and that doesn’t mean they are Psychotic, however, in their Neurotic symptoms, for example, extreme aggression, or a severe impulsivity disorder, even so, they can be controlled within their emotional state of the momentary quality, because they are aware of what they are experiencing and I think they have a bit of a rational side, yes? Unlike the Psychotic, if it is also true, they are outside of reality and perceive it as if it were their own. world in their likeness, they create their pink or black paradigm… like gray too… but there are some diseases, for example schizophrenia… that they do know that they are sick and in “theory” they behave normally, let’s say in some cases, but in their psychotic outbreaks, they lose the notion properly speaking… I once read of a famous Psychiatrist who said “If I had a magic wand, that with just one spell I would cure this woman, I wouldn’t do it, because she is happy inside.” her world” (the woman had 48 multiple personalities…).

I was afraid to continue reading after: “mainly due to the fact that it does not have sufficient mechanisms to support and cope with it”, I understand that its etiology is multiple and that it may be due to genetic factors that emerge, of course there are psychological mechanisms that They participate in it but ruling that causality seems incorrect to me. I was afraid to continue reading because I don’t want to be misinformed and I think that could happen in this article.

I learned that psychoses, neuroses and perversion are personality structures, not disorders or diseases, and that the different types of psychoses are ASD, Hebephrenia, schizophrenia and paranoia; Within the neurosis are open and closed phobias, obsessive-compulsive and hysteria. Psychosis is characterized by having no criterion of reality and certainty; in addition to the presence of auditory hallucinations. They have a prodromal phase, that is, prior to the active phase, which is when a disease manifests, where they have peculiar characteristics such as their clothing, look, difficulty in forming bonds, hygiene, etc. Neurosis is characterized by having a criterion of reality, constant doubt and anxiety; it is considered a healthy structure but it can decompensate and become ill. Perversion with good judgment of reality, intelligence and enjoyment in the pain of others has no possibility of re-education, they actively repeat what they experienced passively.
Since everything I’ve been reading confuses me, it would be good if there was a contribution about it.

It cannot be stated in bold that neurotics “are not so dangerous.” Where does it leave those of us who suffer from some type of psychosis?

I’m barely understanding what I have. And it’s very sad to be like this. With anxiety… I hope to recover. I have understood more by researching that. With the psychiatrists who haven’t even explained anything to me. And the one who does not have a disease and more of the mind. Don’t judge or invent.

The clinical neurotic (the one diagnosed with neurosis in some of its forms: generalized anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, etc.) and not the person with some neurotic attitude or trait within a normal personality (“normal” speaking in psychological terms. .) of course you are ALWAYS aware of your disorder or suffering…that is where your greatest suffering lies…in knowing that you are “strange” because you have built strategies to calm, deal with or put an end -if possible- with the always present and very consciously real anxiety that affects him! I would even say that the characteristic of neuroses is precisely that awareness of suffering from a disorder! And I say this from my own experience of many years with my OCD so please Chino López and all the people who affirm this contrary and does not have a neurosis, refrain from talking nonsense, although in theory you may know by heart the most extensive treatises on psychology,…anyone who is not in the shoes of the patient has no idea, with all due respect.. !

Hey Cristina, I very much agree with your comment, the greatest pain and suffering of the neurotic is knowing and understanding what the disorder has and in the desire to build strategies to calm, deal with or end the situation, permanent anxiety is consuming and wearing down the individual in all social aspects. YOUR COMMENT IS VERY GOOD.

That would be taken to the extreme since in reality all human beings suffer from neuroses.
We are all neurotics.
I imagine that the article is related to the neuroses that prevent a person’s normal behavior in society.

I think that it is not entirely true to affirm that the neurotic is aware of his suffering, in fact the levels and variety of neuroses are so wide that in these bourgeois, bureaucratized and systematized societies, the neurotic symptom(s) are part of the daily life of almost any population, therefore a percentage of the population ignores the presence of the symptom, they can even repress it so much that it would remain unnoticeable to their ego eternally.

Man, saying that in psychosis the patient does not know that he has an illness is not entirely true. That would be like ensuring that psychotics are anosagnostic, as occurs in some dementias. In the psychotic break he is not conscious but in the course of the illness, he is conscious when he is not decompensated. A schizophrenic or bipolar I person knows that they suffer from an illness, they do not know it when they have a psychotic outbreak because it is a state of thought disorder where they do not distinguish external reality from the imaginary or internal input.
