title: [Differential experience of anxiety conditions: a contribution to the diagnosis and pathogenesis of anxiety attacks. A case report].
abstract: By means of a case report about a depressive female patient suffering from clusters of attacks of various psychosomatic disorders associated with anxiety states of different degrees problems of diagnostic classification are discussed with regard to the DSM-III. The subjective experiences of anxiety during the various episodes of the patient's disease are described. A phenomenological difference between fear of death with preserved relation to reality on the one hand and "calamity anxiety" with a short-lasting breakdown of reality testing on the other hand is indicated. The neurobiological model of noradrenergic dysregulation is taken on trial to understand the various phenomenons of the disease.
