TIME PERCEPTION AND SURVIVING BY DEPRESSIVE PATIENTS WITH MANIC-DEPRESSIVE PSYCHOSIS AND ATTACK-LIKE SCHIZOPHRENIA

The author provides the results of a clinicopsychological examination of time perception and surviving by 58 depressive patients with manic-depressive psychosis (MDP) and attack-like schizophrenia. The time surviving and counting off were done in the three clinical variants of depression: hypochondriacal, agitated and apathetic. The surviving of time violation was regarded in the structure of depersonalisation disorders, particularly <<Ego>> stability in time as well as bearing in mind the duration, sequence, localization, rate, tempo and rhythm of the events and emotional experience. The most pronounced and diverse disorders of time surviving were recorded in hypochondriacal depression of MDP, less remarkable and latent in apathetic depression within the framework of schizophrenia.
