Today, the concept neurosis is an umbrella term for a number of psychological disorders. There are other synonyms for neurosis - " neurotic disorder”, “psychoneurosis”.
Neurosis has the following characteristics:
- the source is psychological trauma;
- may occur after numerous stresses;
- may arise due to severe psycho-emotional stress;
- is reversible, that is, it is successfully treated;
- may acquire a protracted course;
- but at the same time, a person is critical of his condition (in contrast to mental disorders).
There are various theories explaining the causes of neurosis, but they can be combined by two factors:
- Psychological factors (how the personality of a person developed and in what conditions);
- Biological factors (disturbances in the neurophysiological system of the brain, i.e. a change in the number of neurotransmitters).
What is it - neurosis? And how does it manifest itself? First of all, this psychological problems, so-called intrapersonal conflict. AND great amount manifestations, including:
- permanent Bad mood, tearfulness, irritability, depression (dysphoria), dysthymia and depression;
- headache;
- causeless anxiety, panic attacks, fears and phobias;
- insomnia (trouble falling asleep, shallow, intermittent frequent awakenings dream);
- anorexia, anorexia, bulimia and other appetite disorders;
- asthenic manifestations (weakness, dizziness, inability to concentrate);
- disorders vegetative system(vegetative-vascular dystonia, pressure drops, heart palpitations, bloating);
- misperception ( hypersensitivity, depersonalization).
The severity of these manifestations can vary from sudden changes blood pressure or emotional manifestations(tearfulness, tantrums), to hysterical paralysis and demonstrative suicides.
In order to determine the presence of symptoms of a neurotic state, we propose to answer the questions of the clinical test by evaluating how appropriate these statements are for you on a 5-point scale, where:

Low score (less than -1.28) on the obsessive-phobic disorder scale
What is it - obsessive-phobic disorder? This is a neurotic disorder that occurs in a person who is captive to obsessive thoughts, memories, fears. And all this against the backdrop of a very high level anxiety. But by certain actions or rituals, this anxiety is reduced for a short time.
The reason for the development of this disorder is an intrapersonal conflict. It can be called something like this: “I want, but I don’t allow myself.” That is, when there is a suppression of the desires and natural needs of a person due to moral, ethical and other attitudes. And neurosis develops as a consequence of the inability to resolve this conflict and create an effective psychological defense.
Quite often, this disorder is accompanied fears (phobias)):
- fear of getting sick with a serious illness (AIDS, cancer, etc.);
- fear of being indoors, in an elevator (claustrophobia);
- fear of going out into the street, into open spaces (agarophobia).
With such phobias, anxiety reaches such proportions that a person accessible ways will avoid situations where these fears arise.
This disorder has the following obsessions ( obsessions):
- obsessive thoughts (constantly spinning, annoying thoughts for any reason);
- obsessive memories (the so-called "looping" on one event);
TO compulsions also include rituals and obsessive actions (in order to eliminate anxiety):
- obsessive counting (stairs, or cars, letters in words, etc.);
- obsessive hand washing (up to tens of times a day);
- intrusive checks (is the door closed, is the iron, light, gas turned off, etc.)
The person himself understands the groundlessness of these actions, but cannot get rid of them.

Low score (less than -1.28) on the anxiety scale
State anxiety accompanies a person throughout his life ... However, it is quite normal to worry, for example, when:
- passing the exam ... at the interview;
- before first flight in airplane;
- if the health of oneself or loved ones worsens;
- if something unexpected, sudden happens in life.
Such anxiety passes rather quickly - when the situation is resolved.
But sometimes anxiety is so strong that it prevents a person from living a normal life. And then we see a person in extreme anxiety. He is fearful, tense, preoccupied, wary, and even suspicious. He may be haunted by obsessive images, some vague premonitions. Moreover, the real cause of anxiety may not even exist.
anxiety disorder appears in 2 forms:
- adaptive anxiety disorder (characterized by situations where a person is not able to quickly adapt to changing circumstances);
- generalized anxiety disorder (when long time a person experiences excessive anxiety that is not associated with certain objects or situations).
Anxiety disorder is often accompanied by:
- rapid heartbeat;
- shortness of breath;
- "nervous" stomach.
to the main types anxiety disorders include:
- panic disorder;
- neurosis obsessive states;
- phobias of a different nature;
- post-traumatic stress disorder.

Low score (less than -1.28) on the hysterical response scale
IN Everyday life word " hysteria' is negative. And it denotes a demonstrative reaction to quite ordinary life events. But we must remember that the hysterical reaction is defensive nature. And that this is an unconscious form of behavior. Of course, such behavior is not always acceptable to others, but a person cannot behave differently.
Hysterical reactions may come and go suddenly. May change. But some remain for life:
- when a person is not able to "see" what is happening around;
- when a person sees, hears only what he wants;
- when a person first of all succumbs to emotional impulses, and then turns on logic;
- this behavior is hard to miss, since there is always an object to which it is directed.
The luminaries of science call hysteria the "great malingerer." Since it can copy many somatic diseases before slightest symptoms. It is impossible to describe all the symptoms in one article, here are some:
- TO mental disorders include demonstrative behavior, fatigue, various fears, memory loss, depressive states, hypersensitivity, suicidal demonstrations;
- Movement disorders -"were taken away" legs, buckled. Their difference from real diseases is that there is a good muscle tone. With hysteria, there is a “lump” in the throat, inability to swallow, the head or arms and legs tremble;
- Sensitivity disorders- pain, decreased sensitivity (and even numbness) of body parts in the form of "panties", "stockings", "jackets". Hysterical blindness, deafness, loss of taste and smell;
- Speech disorders in hysteria - a person's voice "breaks", speaks in a whisper, or even is silent.
Somato-vegetative disorders the most common and numerous:
- Shortness of breath, pseudo-asthmatic attacks.
- Intestinal spasms, constipation, urination disorders.
- Hysterical vomiting, hiccups, nausea, flatulence.
- Anorexia, by the way, is also a manifestation of hysteria.
- Jumps in blood pressure, sudden changes in heart rate, pain in the heart, simulating heart attacks or angina pectoris, but no changes on the ECG.
Almost always, a person stops “hysteria”, it is worth helping him solve his psychological problems, change the situation.

Low score (less than -1.28) on the asthenia scale
Asthenia occurs in us when the reserves are completely depleted nervous system. And this happens with prolonged emotional and intellectual overstrain. The body, as it were, slows down its work in order to accumulate strength for recovery.
If we consider psychological reasons asthenia, then we can say that a person constantly overestimates the bar of his claims. Such an intrapersonal conflict is formed when there is an unhealthy desire for personal success without an adequate assessment of resources, mental and physical potential.
We become exhausted when we cannot resolve our internal or external psychological conflicts for too long. Or when you are sick, especially at the very beginning of the disease, during periods of exacerbations and in the postoperative period.
You can easily distinguish asthenia from simple fatigue: fatigue occurs after physical or mental overstrain, and disappears after a good, proper rest. A asthenic syndrome not directly related to how and how much you rest.
Man with asthenia gets up in the morning, already feeling tired and overwhelmed. There is no cheerfulness. At work, it’s hard to concentrate, switch to something else. Can't talk to anyone, everyone is annoying. Often I want to cry, even for no reason. He quickly gets tired of communication, becomes distracted. He notices that he began to remember poorly even recent events.
If asthenia increases, then join:
- irritability (hard to endure loud noises, strong smells and bright lights);
- mental overwork (in the brain there is an uncontrollable stream of changing vivid ideas, obsessive memories and thoughts appear that interfere with concentration);
- changeable mood;
- self-blame (I am guilty of not being able to cope with this weakness, …);
- the inability to relax, to rest, even when there is an opportunity and time for this.
And if asthenia reaches severe stages, That:
- a person becomes generally passive, inactive;
- headaches, somatic disorders are added;
- at night insomnia and nightmares, and during the day - constant drowsiness;
- decreased sex drive.

Low score (less than -1.28) on the scale of autonomic disorders
There is a phrase: "All diseases are from nerves." And there is some truth in this. Because the body cannot endure the load indefinitely. If mental balance is disturbed, irritability inevitably appears, sensitivity becomes aggravated, and anxiety increases. These are all signs that a person is trying to return to a state of balance. But sooner or later the body "shoots" with some kind of disease.
It is unlikely that any of us sees a connection between our internal problems and vegetative manifestations in body. And only if you complain, for example, of pain in the heart (and the ECG is normal), we can assume that it is not the disease itself, but something is going wrong in life!
It also happens that you go to the doctor with some complaints, are examined (diagnosis of VVD). Long and often unsuccessfully treated. And then others are added to the previous complaints. If internal conflicts are not processed, then we get sick of one or the other all our lives.
Autonomic disorders affect the most various organs and systems, individually or together. We list the most common of these syndromes:
- Cardiovascular (cardiovascular) syndrome. A person is disturbed heartbeat(accelerated or vice versa slow heartbeat, the rhythm goes astray). galloping arterial pressure. The skin is pale or "marble", chilliness of the hands and feet.
- Cardiac Syndrome- aching, stabbing or throbbing pain or indescribable discomfort in the region of the heart, which, unlike angina pectoris, is not associated with physical activity and do not go away with nitroglycerin.
- G hyperventilation syndrome. This is rapid breathing, a feeling of lack of air, the inability to either inhale or exhale at full strength, up to dizziness.
- irritable bowel syndrome. When a person feels cramps and pain in the lower abdomen. Eat frequent urges to defecation, bloating, then diarrhea, then constipation. Appetite is either absent or increased. There may be nausea and vomiting. Dysphagia (violation of the act of swallowing), pain and discomfort in the pit of the stomach - all this in the absence of organic disease(For example, peptic ulcer stomach).
- Sweating disorder. Usually occurs in the form of hyperhidrosis ( excessive sweating) more often on the palms and soles.
- cystalgia- frequent painful urination without signs of urinary system disease and changes in the urine.
- Sexual disorders. Manifested by erectile dysfunction and ejaculation in men, vaginismus and anorgasmia in women. In this case, libido (sexual desire) can be preserved or reduced.
- Violation of thermoregulation. Expressed in persistent slight increase temperature, chills. And fever easily tolerated, sometimes higher in the morning, may be increased asymmetrically in the armpits.

Low score (less than -1.28) on the neurotic depression scale
First of all, remember that depression- it's really serious illness. And it really reduces productivity. A person suffers himself and brings suffering to his loved ones. And we often do not even know how it actually manifests itself and what it threatens. Unfortunately people get psychological help when depression enters into a protracted and severe form.
Depressive disorder is a condition in which a person's attitude towards himself and life changes. And not in better side. In this state, a person is sad, nothing pleases him. And this unbearable feeling of guilt, self-criticism beyond measure, and at the same time helplessness and hopelessness. And disbelief that everything is fixable and not so scary. And yet such a weakness that you get annoyed at the slightest provocation.
Causes depression may be different:
- troubles, conflicts at work;
- job loss, new job;
- long stress;
- family quarrels, divorce;
- death of a close, significant person;
- adaptation to new conditions and relocation;
- age crises and much more.
People most often affected by depression are timid, insecure people. And it is necessary to distinguish between such conditions as depression and the so-called depressiveness. Depressiveness is the fear of isolation, loneliness, the fear of being abandoned.
Without treatment, depression can last for several years. Throughout life, bouts of depression can occur repeatedly. And what is especially dangerous, it is often depression that pushes a person to an irreparable step.

Neurosis arises as a reaction of a person to a difficult, sometimes insoluble problem. life situation, i.e. when a person is simply unable to find a way out of a predicament. At such moments, timely seeking help from specialists can dramatically change the situation.

Neurosis is a violation of the basic functions of the human nervous system. System failures are of psychogenic origin. Clinical manifestations pathologies include a variety of somatic disorders. The diagnosis itself is established after the complete exclusion of similar psychiatric and neurological diseases.
Classification of neuroses
Neurosis has different forms with different symptoms. Neurology defines several types of pathology.
- Neurasthenia. It is manifested by active irritation to the entire external environment.
- Hysterical. This type of treatment lends itself poorly, because. with the help of seizures, patients attract attention to themselves and achieve the necessary goal.
- Obsessional neurosis. Severe form. A person experiences phobias, fears, anxiety. Long duration of the course of the disease.
- Hypochondriacal. Determined by increased attention to their health. Treatment is based on work with a psychologist.
Diagnostic parameters of neurosis
The disease in question is insidious and difficult to diagnose. The main criteria for diagnosis:
- quick response for timely treatment;
- obligatory consultation of a qualified physician;
- correct treatment regimen;
- integrated approach to the problem.
- activity of reflexes;
- hyperhidrosis of the palms;
- tremor of fingers;
- sleep disorders;
- frequent headaches.
Patients with neurosis are easier to treat. They are aware of the presence of the disease and want to fight it - this is what differs from people with psychiatric disorders.
The test for neurosis is the primary way to determine the disease when existing symptoms. He offers a person who suspects a neurosis, through a survey, to help identify the disorder by signs:
- anxiety and fatigue;
- indecision and lack of confidence in themselves and their abilities.
The test will also allow you to determine the presence of an inferiority complex in aspects of character and appearance.
Rapid Diagnosis
Methodology of K. Heck and H. Hess: definition of neurosis with the help of 40 questions of simple content. There are only two types of answers: "yes" or "no".
For a positive answer "yes" a point is awarded. The outcome is calculated from the number of points: more than 24 - a high proportion of the probability that a person is sick with a neurosis.
Yale-Brown scale
The Yale Brown Compulsive Scale is called the OCD test. It was created in the field of mental illness.
The test determines the presence of obsessive-compulsive disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder. This type of method also helps to determine the level of self-esteem of the individual. During the test, the doctor asks the patient 10 questions. Each answer is scored on a scale of 0-4 points. When calculated, it outputs average expressing symptoms within the past 7 days.
Such a test must be repeated after a course of therapy. Then the indicators will help determine the correctness of the drawn up scheme and the effectiveness of the treatment. Criteria allowing according to severe symptoms, to diagnose the presence of obsessive-compulsive disorders:
- duration of manifestation characteristic symptoms within 1 day;
- the value of the vital function;
- strength of moral dysfunction;
- the ability to resist symptoms;
- degree of obsession control.
