title: [Family group in schizophrenic diseases. Overview, personal concept and report of experiences].
abstract: Improved treatment measures of schizophrenic inpatients often lead to early discharge and thus, may be stressful for the relatives. Different styles of coping with this new situation may sometimes be followed by depression and resignation in the relatives. This may have negative effects on the course of the illness. Family group-therapy may be a way to help them. We will give an overview of the different forms of family/relative-groups and finally present our own concept.
