Qu est ce que psychologie ?
Medical psychology, she tries to understand how the human psyche about the disease, the patient and the physician. The field of this discipline is thus both broader and different.
Psychosomatic illnesses and somatic complaints are that the onset and progress can be traced in part to unconscious mental disorders.
These are mainly asthma, eczema, ulcerative colitis, certain high blood pressure. The causes of these diseases are varied, but each time, a psychological factor, among others, may be incriminated.
For the general psychiatrist Henri Ey, ‘psychiatry is the branch of medicine that is to the pathology of the life of relationship, level of integration that ensures autonomy and human adaptation to the conditions of its existence. (…) The psychiatrist is neither a policeman nor a political activist, a doctor …’.
For Perlemuter, ‘psychiatry is the medical specialty that focuses on the pathological changes of cognitive activity and integrative brain, thyme or mood and emotion. It supports not only the intellectual and characterological disorders of the individual but also the disruption of the relationship he establishes with his entourage. ‘
When the patient comes to see himself, the psychiatrist seeks to define the symptoms that prompted the consultation: their permanent or intermittent, the existence of identical background etc..
In most cases, the patient is aware of his problems but he may be difficult to express them as neurotic manifestations are often judged by the subject as completely absurd.
Sometimes the patient presenting with somatic symptoms and the doctor will diagnose psychological disorder but will sometimes struggle to gain acceptance. Other times, the patient consults, persuaded to be normal, oblivious to his troubles, driven to desperation by his relationship problems with his entourage.
The psychiatrist must then locate the character structure of patient anxiety, relationship of dependency vis-à-vis the environment, emotional immaturity, sensitivity to the frustrations of neurotic order. Emotional withdrawal, disinterest evoke such a schizophrenic dissociation. Paranoid structure is known before the austerity of lifestyle, obedience to strict rules, the attitude of distrust.
Mythomaniacal trends are recognized at the difficulties of overlap, the tendency to minimize problems and roles of prestige.
When the patient is seen by the psychiatrist at the request of the entourage, the first patient is different and requires careful handling. Often the patient denies and disputes the description of the disorder is made.
Shyness refers to a neurotic inhibition, the hysteric adopts a spirit of seduction. One problem is fear of contact early schizophrenia. Is the paranoid psycho: he brings his medical records, taking notes etc..
They confirm the diagnosis of psychiatric disorders because of their negativity in particular as regards the electroencephalogram (EEG), CT scan and magnetic resonance imaging.
They can be global or partial, and are manifested by a loss of intellectual capacity in the broad sense orientation in time and space, language understanding, etc..
The overall loss events of interest immediately or gradually all integrative functions, cognitive and memory of the intellect:
By definition, these are diseases of the personality, minor severity, not involving serious behavioral problems and do not require hospitalization (internment).
Neuroses expressed by disorders in which patients are conscious and whose occurrence is related to psychological trauma (recent or old). The neurotic subject has an accurate perception of reality that surrounds him, his condition he can describe in general.
Psychotic subjects had a false perception of reality (delusions) and the world around him.He interprets the elements of the outside world in a sense.
Psychological imbalance is defined by acting out. From childhood disorders are obvious: lies, theft, running away prelude to delinquency. The problem of criminal responsibility is of course in the foreground.
The subject psychopath is unable to resist his urges, whatever they are. It works immediately, without thinking about the consequences of his act, which moreover do not matter to him. He lacks the capacity to anticipate, predict. It is often dangerous to society. That’s one reason to doubt the deterrent of the death penalty.
They are carrying out active pleasures or regressive fantasy that replace the normal performance of the sexual act and its enforcement genital:
This concept has gradually imposed on psychiatrists to describe subjects who, by their manner, their behavior and their relationship style were significantly different personalities so-called normal or routine provided without presenting symptoms of a mental disorder characterized.
For Schneider, the ‘personality disorders are purely quantitative deviations of the personality, statistically rare and whose attitudes and behaviors are a cause of suffering for the subject himself or his entourage.’
Right now, you’ve noticed, the media use this term a lot and we explain in length newscast that the events of September 11, 2001 created a ‘hysteria’ in Western countries. What they mean by psychosis, is a significant and generalized anxiety, obsessive fear that something dramatic does not happen again.
In common parlance, a ‘psychosis’ is a pathological fixation on anxiety, illness, trauma, a problem that starts to occupy the mental space dramatically. Originally, the word psychosis is a psychiatric term that has nothing to do with obsession. In psychiatry, psychosis is a severe mental illness, which reached the overall personality of the patient and requires an intensive therapeutic treatment or hospitalization.
The major feature of psychosis is any degradation of the relationship to reality. The patient projects into the outside world his own psychic reality, desires and emotions that he refuses to acknowledge as his own. The reality is modified, denied, it goes astray. A psychotic delusional belief in his delirium and has no awareness of his condition. It sometimes suffers from visions, strange sensations he experiences bursts of anguish and a sense of ‘foreignness’. Psychosis is a condition that cuts the sufferer of the real world and others.It can no longer communicate, it follows generally contact and fell back into his inner world.
There are many different kinds of psychoses, manic-depressive illness, characterized by mood disorders, schizophrenia, characterized by a dissociation of personality and profound impairment of cognitive functions, such as chronic delusional psychoses paranoia, hallucinations and psychosis. To learn more, read ‘The paranoid psychosis in its relations with the personality’ of Jacques Lacan (Editions Seuil).
Psychology, Greek psukhê, soul, and logos, word, is the scientific study of psychic phenomena, empirical knowledge or intuitive feelings, ideas, behaviors of others and his family, all ways of thinking , feeling, acting that characterize a person, animal, group or person.
Divided into many branches of study, disciplines approach the field on both theoretical and practical applications with therapeutic, social and sometimes political or théologiques.La psychology aims to investigate the psyche in terms of structures and operation. It therefore seeks to describe, assess and explain the mental processes as a whole taking into account expressions of subjectivity.
