[Pathological reactions of the erotic possession type].
The paper presents an analysis of the disorders with manifestations of non-delirious pathologic love as a response to the action of psychogenic factor on the basis of constitutional predisposition. By the results of the examination of 31 patients with prolonged psychogenic depressions, characterized by the phenomenon of erotic possession, 2 types of the pathologic reactions were distinguished: with a predominance of the possessed images and with a predominance of the delirious-like fantasies. Psycho-traumatic situations that reflected loss of significant relations (either real or imaginary) as a result of the divorce, broken relations, "love triangle", etc. were investigated. Estimation of the premorbid state in the patients allowed both to reveal accentuation in a sphere of love relationship and to single out a main mechanism of the development of pathologic reactions (by type of "key" experience) as well as to define typological differentiation of psychogenic by type of erotic possession taking into consideration the constitutional anomalies.
