abstract="Disturbed patients provoke fear in those around them. The disturbance that I wish to discuss is the disturbance of the acute psychotic decompensation. I do not wish to deal with the drug intervention used in the management of people prone to aggressive outbursts as a chronic phenomenon. Rather, I wish to deal with those people who are in constant danger of acting on distorted perceptions or delusional ideas and may impulsively commit homicide or suicide, or mutilate themselves despite restraint. People in this psychotic state experience severe discomfort, and optimal treatment begins with the most rapid alleviation of symptoms possible.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
