Psicosis o presentaciones enloquecidas en la neurosis : dificultades en el diagnóstico diferencial en la adolescencia.

Abstract

It's known that the stage of adolescence is generally linked to painful, abrupt and maddened manifestations. These, from the psychoanalysis perspective, usually represent a problem for differential diagnosis due to the possible vagueness caused by the subjects not being able to specify the limits of the structure before a crisis such as maddened presentations. The present research work aims to provide a method of analysis to the differential clinic of psychotic unleashing and maddened presentations of neurosis in adolescence, through the review of two clinical cases based on the Clinic of the Knots of Jacques Lacan, which allows to specify the limits of psychosis and neurosis since the symbolic, imaginary and real processes of the psychic structure are identified. So, it is expected to specify clinical elements to guide the lecture of the differential diagnosis.
