	Creative Genius or Psychotic? A Strong Correlation
		The problem that we have with determining whether or not a person is either fantasy prone or suffers from a mental disorder is the fact that many of the symptoms displayed by fantasy proneness and psychopathy are the same.
		I agree with Byrd's postulation that creativity is directly linked to psychoses and that high levels in one will the majority of the time dictate high levels in the other.
		Beaton asked a good question as to whether psychoses were more prominent in creative geniuses or if that view was too narrow given the prominence of psychoses of people with limited or normal levels of creativity.

	Late-Onset Schizophrenia and Other Related Psychoses
		The goal of this chapter is to discuss (a) the nomenclature of late-onset schizophrenia (LOS) and related psychoses, (b) diagnostic boundaries among these conditions, (c) neurobiologic findings in late-life schizophrenia, (d) the relationship of LOS to early-onset schizophrenia (EOS), and (e) therapeutic considerations in the treatment of late-life schizophrenia.
		We will discuss the available literature on LOS and related psychoses and consider the implications for improving our understanding of the neurobiology of schizophrenia (and other psychoses) in general (see The Neurobiology of Treatement- Resistant Mood Disorders).
		Some investigators have used that term synonymously with paranoid schizophrenia, some refer to it as a combination of all "nonorganic" paranoid psychoses in late life, while still others even include patients with obvious metabolic or other organic etiology of late-onset paranoid psychoses under the category of paraphrenia.

		Amazon.fr : The Psychoses 1955-1956: Livres en anglais: Jacques Lacan,Jacques-Alain Miller,Russell Grigg
		Taking us into and beyond the realm of Freudian psychoanalysis, Lacan examines the psychoses' inescapable connection to the symbolic process through which signifier is joined with signified.
		In these lectures on the psychoses, Lacan's renowned theory of metaphor and metonymy, along with the concept of the "quilting point," appears for the first time.

	eMJA: Copolov et , Psychoses: a primary care perspective
		Antipsychotic drugs may be useful in the acute treatment phase of affective psychoses, but the maintenance phase of treatment for these disorders should mainly involve the use of mood stabilising or antidepressant drugs.
		Although psychoses are considerably rarer than other psychiatric problems in general practice, especially anxiety disorders and depression, a considerable proportion of psychotic patients are initially diagnosed and referred for psychiatric assessment by general practitioners.
		Nevertheless, antipsychotic drugs may be useful in patients with persisting affective psychoses who are poorly responsive to standard treatment regimens, who are intolerant of mood stabilisers or antidepressants, or who are chronically non-compliant (in which case depot administration may be helpful).

	Psychoses
		With every increase or decrease in depressive symptom severity, there is a corresponding significant and stepwise increase or decrease in psychosocial disability among patients with bipolar disorder, according to a study in the December issue of Archives of General Psychiatry, one of the JAMA/Archives journals.
		The results of a study published today in the open access journal BMC Psychiatry contradict previous findings and show that Oct-6, a protein involved in neurodevelopment, is normally expressed in the adult brain and cannot be used to identify patients with schizophrenia.
		New research in individuals with schizotypal personalities—people characterized by odd behavior and language but who are not psychotic or schizophrenic—offers the first neurological evidence that these individuals are more creative than normal or fully schizophrenic people, and rely more heavily on the right sides of their brains than the general population to access their creativity.

		The functional psychoses, medical diseases with no known biological causes (for example, schizophrenia and anxiety disorders), continue to be classed as illnesses of unknown origin, and the validity of diagnostic concepts therefore also depends on extrinsic criteria such as course and outcome, results of biological and genetic investigation, and response to treatment.
		This is a revised and expanded edition of Diagnostic Criteria for Schizophrenic and Affective Psychoses and is also published under the auspices of the World Psychiatric Association.
		The functional psychoses continue to be classed as illnesses of unknown origin.

	Psychoses, Adverse Reactions, and Personality Deterioration
		It is possible that the widespread use of a drug which, with excessive dosage, may cause toxic psychoses, could, providing those toxic psychoses are short-lived, lead to an increased incidence of psychoses without significantly elevating the prevalence rates for psychoses.
		By their own acknowledgment, up to 65 percent of soldiers in Vietnam have used cannabis at least once during their tour of duty; they further assert that approximately 50 percent of the cannabis preparations seized in Vietnam are laced with opiates.
		Thus, one would expect that the prevalence of psychoses among cannabis users would be greater than that of the general population.

		Psychosis is a general category for psychological disorders that involve a "break" with external reality.
		The psychoses can be contrasted with the neuroses, which usually do not cause the patient to lose touch with the factual conditions of the "real world." One of the most common types of psychosis is schizophrenia.
		In general, the psychoses are less treatable with psychoanalysis than the neuroses, and often require hospitalization and ongoing medication.

	Antisemitism, Anti-Semitism - The Peace Encyclopedia
		This is the phenomenon of self-hatred found, for example, in cases of Jewish anti-Semitism or in the acceptance by fls of white aesthetic criteria of having straight hair or a light skin.
		Self-hatred is often accompanied by symptoms of apathy, anxiety, and depression or by forms of self-destructive escapist reactions such as alcoholism or drug addiction or, in extreme cases, by paranoid, schizophrenic or manic depressive psychoses.
		In such situations of extreme degradation then, the oppressed group frequently reacts in an 'intropunitive' fashion; that is, it turns its frustrations inwardly against the self or the 'in' group at large.

	Genetics of Functional Psychoses
		Functional psychoses are complex traits influenced by multiple genes of small effect, as well as by non- genetic factors.
		Zurich study of functional psychoses: Our study comprised 77 nuclear families ascertained through an index case with a diagnosis of schizophrenia (n=50), schizoaffective disorder (n=2), or bipolar illness (n=15), and a Swiss case-control sample of 128 patients suffering from functional psychoses together with 128 healthy control subjects.
		The families were genotyped with respect to 430 polymorphic markers for a genome scan at a 10cM resolution, while the fine mapping of the candidate regions revealed by the genome scan is being accomplished on the basis of our case-control subsample.
