  • Title: A clinical note on hysterical psychosis.
    Author: Cavenar JO, Sullivan JL, Maltbie AA.
    Journal: Am J Psychiatry; 1979 Jun; 136(6):830-2. PubMed ID: 443471.
    Abstract:
    The authors review the concept of hysterical psychosis and its reported psychodynamics. They suggest a psychodynamic issue that apparently has not been previously reported, namely, emotions engendered by an overt sexual advance or rage and disappointment over a lack of a sexual advance. This finding can be most helpful in distinguishing a case of hysterical psychosis from an acute schizophrenic episode.
