title: [Ethics in psychiatry].
abstract: Psychiatric ethics are a part of general medical ethics. But there are some special ethic problems in psychiatry: The often especially intensive emotional relationship between patient and doctor, the need to make decisions for patients who have lost decisional capabilities, the question of involuntary treatment for patients who are dangerous to themselves or others and further some diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties.
