  • Title: [Psychodynamics of psychovegetative disorders].
    Author: Mentzel G.
    Journal: Z Psychosom Med Psychoanal; 1976; 22(3):250-66. PubMed ID: 961094.
    Abstract:
    Based on quotations from Freuds writings on the actual neurosis and quotations from Schultz-Henckes writings on neurasthenia and nervousness, the psychodynamics of psychovegetative disturbances are demonstrated through an examplatory case. In a first attempt the symptoms are categorized, a classification is proposed, and the differential diagnosis is reflected. Next a report is given about the special defence-mechanism known as repression, the highly strained ego-ideal, and the importance of the triggering situation in relation to the etiology. Psychodynamic hypothese about psychovegetative disturbances are supported through therapeutic experiences.
