title: [Body oriented therapy of schizophrenic ego disturbances. Recommendation of an additional therapeutic possibility and basic thoughts on the topic].
abstract: The instrumental construction of 5 basic dimensions of ego-consciousness (ego-vitality, -activity, -consistency, -demarcation, -identity) is presented as a means of synopsis the clinical polymorphism of schizophrenic experience and behaviour. Such consideration leads to the insight how deep in their basic feelings of vitality the schizophrenic person may be endangered. From that a body-oriented therapy is conceived, which is presented in datail. The commentary of G. Benedetti points out, how in different therapeutic approaches a common basic attitude of the therapist and a unifying synthetic relationship between therapist and patient can be seen: in duality, empathic sharing of psychotic experience, symbolic realization the narcissistic deficit is overcome. The resynthesis of the ego starts from the present experience rather than from analytical interpretative historical reconstruction.
