title: [Bibliotherapeutic dream work after acute psychotic decompensation].
abstract: The paper reports about a follow-up treatment of a 15,5 year old female youth, who had suffered a polymorph psychotic disturbance with schizophrenic symptomatology. The symptoms began after a sexual encounter with a friend. During her illness the patient considered herself as "Jesus". By means of intensive dream work and bibliotherapy the psychotic events could be identified and understood subjectively. Three months after the onset of the illness the psychotic anxieties could be addressed by reading the Grimm fairy tale "The robber's bride" and could thus be better understood and classified. The patient's anxieties referred to physical and emotional disintegration (to be incorporated, to be Christ himself, and to give away his body). The patient could recall these anxieties as having actually occurred to her at the beginning of her illness.
