Description

There is still a huge gap between our knowledge of certain mental illnesses and our knowledge of personality disorders”

It is not easy or quick to establish a differential diagnosis of Personality Disorders with specific psychiatric diseases. Detecting this alteration in medical practice is of utmost importance. In most patients the abnormal features become apparent as early as childhood and adolescence, and remain hidden or ignored until adulthood. Personality traits are considered abnormal only to the extent that they are conflicting for the subject or society. Undoubtedly, the most frequent additional diagnosis in subjects with personality disorders is depression (or affective disorders). An important trend in current psychopathological research is the description of Personality Disorders in terms that allow for a reliable differential diagnosis. 

The term schizophrenia was introduced by Bleuler in 1911, who considered it more appropriate to emphasize the splitting that occurs in the association of ideas, emotions and contact with reality and social life. Today schizophrenia is still one of the greatest challenges of science, affecting, as is well known, about 1% of the population. Much progress has been made in the knowledge of this disease (or diseases), but if we analyze what is currently known and what is ignored, we could conclude that we know more and more, but we continue to ignore many of the enigmas of this or these diseases. Neuroleptics cannot teach the patient to develop vital and defensive resources nor can they improve a person's quality of life, except indirectly through their effect on cognitive disorganization and suppression of positive symptoms. In general, the psychosocial intervention of schizophrenics is aimed primarily at informing and educating the patient about the symptoms, course, prognosis and treatment of their illness, as well as the need for compliance and management of medication and identification of early signs of relapse.

Moreover, as it is an episodic disease that often returns after the acute episode to previous levels of normal functioning, the immediate consequence is that the individual between episodes tends to work, marry and have children in spite of his/her disease, because given the absence of symptoms, he/she is in a position to do so. Therefore, it is likely that the patient is often a spouse and/or parent in their family, rather than a single adult as is often the case in schizophrenia.
