Toward mastery of psychotic symptoms: a group phenomenon.
This paper describes a long-term, weekly, outpatient group for the management of recurrent psychotic manifestations. Emphasis is on the development of individual strategies that attenuate symptom distress and reinforce the sense of mastery. Illustrations are drawn from events occurring over the course of the life of the group.
