Psychasthenia - Psychasthenia Symptom, Cause, Treatment
A psychological disorder characterized by phobias, obsessions, compulsions, or excessive anxiety. Compulsive symptoms refer to irritable and persistent urges to do say, or think about certain things, uncontrolled impulses to touch objects, repeat words, count steps and engage in repetitive movements are some illustrations. Its clinical characteristics (feelings of non-fulfillment in action and emotion, experiences of oddness and depersonalization, obsessions, phobias...) makes psychasthenia a fully-fledged illness, the psychopathological organization of which results from a decrease of psychological tension and from a loss of reality function. Phobias are unreasonable or groundless fears. People who have an exaggerated fear of germs or who are terrified of harmless things such as open places, closed places, crowds, are suffering from phobias.
Symptoms of Psychasthenia
- This cross-sectional study examines a range of obsessive compulsive (OC) symptoms which have been hypothesized to distinguish tic-related OCD from non-tic-related OCD.
- "Just right" phenomena and symptoms of psychasthenia, however, were both found to be associated with the current severity of OC symptoms.
