Introduction to the Program

The term schizophrenia was introduced by Bleuler in 1911, who considered it more appropriate to emphasize the split that occurs in the association of ideas, in emotions, and in contact with reality and social life”

It is evident that the predominant symptom in these chronic patients is the deterioration of social functioning. For this reason, the psychosocial care of individuals with schizophrenia is of fundamental importance, since most of them must learn or relearn social and personal skills in order to function within the community. Neuroleptics cannot teach patients to develop vital and defensive resources, nor can they improve a person’s quality of life, except indirectly through their effects on cognitive disorganization and the suppression of positive symptoms. In general terms, psychosocial intervention for patients with schizophrenia is primarily aimed at informing and educating them about the symptoms, course, prognosis, and treatment of their illness, as well as about the need for adherence to medication, medication management, and the identification of early signs of relapse.

There is still a significant gap between what is known about certain mental illnesses and what we understand about personality disorders.  This is partly because personality disorders often appear to be quantitative rather than qualitative variations of the individual. However, some personality disorders that have traditionally been considered character-dependent (e.g., depressive or anxious personality) have proven to be subsyndromal forms of specific illnesses. Most patients tend to display behaviors (and associated problems) suggestive of a personality alteration, which may lead the clinician to overlook syndromes unrelated to personality.

A thorough and systematic mental status examination is essential in the assessment of patients presenting a psychotic disorder or personality disorder. Bipolar disorder is another syndrome that affects the family in a distinctive way. Since it is an episodic condition that often returns the individual to baseline functioning after the acute episode, the immediate consequence is that the person between episodes may work, marry, and have children despite the illness, as the absence of symptoms allows them to do so. Therefore, the individual is often a spouse and/or parent within the family, rather than a single adult, as is more frequently the case in schizophrenia.  As a result, the effects of an episode will be highly significant for the family, both psychologically and materially (e.g., loss of job and financial security).
