While waiting for rescue, they must reassure the subject by adopting a soft voice and soothing behaviors. The person will then be hospitalized because it is a life-threatening emergency. The treatment is to rehydrate the patient well, to give vitamins to avoid further complications and to halt the crisis by the administration of sedative drugs (Valium ® type). In cases of aggression, the patient may be temporarily strapped. Finally, the clinical environment is suitable for the subject’s state of anxiety ( light sweet little noises, speech reassuring …). However, once the crisis ended in delirium tremens, the patient must undergo mandatory detoxification treatment. This usually takes place in hospitals because there is a risk of recurrence.

Saturday, June 11th, 2011

The misunderstanding of the adult world pushes the person to isolate themselves in a world of abstraction, which further reinforces the gap and raises anxiety. And above all, people are so in denial about their problem they do not see the need to take care of themselves. In the end, it is the suffering that will push the patient to do work on itself. There are all kinds of therapies and everyone can find happiness. For the most important cases, best results are obtained by psychoanalysis or psychoanalytic psychotherapy. A long and difficult work in all cases, but well worth the effort!

Definition of Peter Pan syndrome

Saturday, June 11th, 2011

The Peter Pan syndrome is not strictly speaking a mental illness. It is more precisely a set of symptoms, more or less intense.

On the basis of pathology, there is a trauma in early childhood. Dan Kiley had noticed that most men with Peter Pan syndrome had an absent father, fleeing or devalued. In many cases, the mother should bear all responsibilities of the family. However, this mother was not strong enough and would have sought the confidence in herself to her child. The child finds himself in a role he is unable to complete and can not build a stable manner. The trauma will be more violent than the intellectually precocious child. The case of Peter Pan syndrome strongest are always installed with very smart people, even gifted.
The only way to protect the child, then it is to “cut” into two, separating one part of the intellect and the other emotions. The intellect will continue to grow and become adults, while the emotions will remain blocked in its infancy. Arrival at adulthood, the person will switch from one to another, depending on circumstances. That is why these people, yet very fine and perceptive when it comes to intellect, may show impulsive and often childish when it comes to emotion.
