[Treatments of hysteria].
Treatment of hysteria requires establishing a management strategy. The first steps consist of symptomatic treatment (catharsis, counter-suggestion, hypnosis, narco-analysis, relaxation, focused psychoanalytical psychotherapy, drug therapy). Thereafter, an approach aiming to modify the psychic structure of the patient can be considered (supportive psychotherapy, psychoanalysis). Occasionally, a systemic approach is necessary. Although each facet of the treatment must be conducted by a specialist, one physician must supervise the overall strategy; this role falls naturally to the family doctor.
