Therapy and quality of life of patients with psychosis.
نویسنده
چکیده
The symptoms and the individual experience of psychosis vary from patient to patient. Treatment, medication and cognitive psychotherapy are targeted mostly on positive and lately also on negative symptoms of psychosis. Deficits in metacognition found in patients with psychosis have a profound impact on the recovery process, their quality of life and experience of mental pain. Long term group psychotherapy helps patients to mourn their loss, improve their metacognition, and reduce the stigma and mental pain in patients with psychosis.
