[Ethnic and psychophysiological analysis of brief reactive psychosis. Autobiographical data and the position of reactive psychosis among psychoses].
The account of an acute schizophrenic episode personally experienced by the author is given here. It relates its rare early stages, the sudden outbreak of the psychotic state, the collapsing of the ego and the internal journey with its catastrophic and mystical thematic. The present positions on acute schizophrenic episodes are related. It is desirable that they should be considered independently from schizophrenics.
