Abstract

The psychopathological structure of anesthetic depressions was studied in 80 patients with progredient schizophrenia. Three variants of anesthetic depression were distinguished, viz, anxiety anesthesia with agitation, sensorial psychic anesthesia, and multiple depersonalization symptoms; melancholic anesthesia with the depressive triad, self-reproach ideas and sensorial ideatory psychic anesthesia; anesthesia proper with ideatory psychic anesthesia as the main or sole manifestation of depression. The study revealed transitions of these variants in the structure of schizophrenic episodes from anxiety anesthetic to melancholic anesthetic and further on to purely anesthetic ones. The latter type of depression proved refractory to antidepressive therapy and tended to persist for a long time.
