According to the experiments undertaken by the Zurich school, the expectation is justified within certain limits, that psychoanalysis will be therapeutically useful in certain forms of paranoia and dementia praecox.
Though Jimmy was wary to the point of paranoia, he discovered that he wanted for nothing. He was kept clean and his home kept tidy. He was fed well not only in terms of nourishment, but in terms of what he liked. Then ... Jimmy began to notice changes. Huckleberry Finn turned up missing. His advanced Mecanno set was "broken" so Mrs. Mitchell told him. Uncle Paul had accidentally crushed it.
We enter now that region of constitutional disturbances in which psychotherapy is of small help. It leads from epilepsy to the periodic diseases, especially the maniacal depressive insanity, the paranoia which develops late, and finally to states of idiocy which cover the whole life.
We know that pure paranoia is not a deteriorating psychosis that it does not necessarily preclude the possibility of considerable social usefulness and that it grades off almost imperceptibly into dementia praecox. The features differentiating these two diseases should therefore supply us with data for determining the prognosis.
"No, no," Gregory told him earnestly. "The government isn't a theocracy. At least not yet. But if The Guide keeps on insisting that only beautiful things are good and that he is uniquely qualified to define beauty, watch his rule change into just that." "I've been detecting symptoms of religious paranoia, messianic delusions, about his public statements...." the woman began.
Very frequently, as all the medical writers note, these voices are "conscience exteriorized"; that is, the voices say of him just what he has been saying of himself in the struggle against drink. Then there is Alcoholic Paranoia, a disease in which the main change is a delusion of jealousy directed against the mate, who is accused of infidelity.
"I'm told that paras are madmen, and there's been mention of suspicion and secretiveness which suggests schizo-paranoia and so I have guessed the term para for those affected in this way." "It is not any form of paranoia," said the planetary doctor, contemptuously. "Paranoia involves suspicion of everyone. Paras despise and suspect only normals.
He thought: "Such a small, stupid girl." But he soon left. Outside, the lyric poet Roland Rufus suddenly seized his arm firmly and excitedly, saying: "Have you read the review written by a certain Bruno Bibelbauer in the monthly medical journal, in which it is claimed that the reason for my paranoia is that I imagine that I have some paralysis. Everyone looks at me strangely; I am famous.
This may be stated: the average balanced person is apt to weigh consequences to himself, but the paranoid does not; and so, when accident or circumstances enlist him in a good cause, he is a fighter without fear and is enormously valuable. See Lombroso's "Man of Genius" for many such cases. This success brought L.'s paranoia to the pinnacle of unreason.
If that doesn't happen, there's a period of suspiciousness and secretiveness strongly suggestive of paranoia. Then there's a craving for unusual food. When it becomes uncontrollable, the patient is mad!" The ground cars sped toward the city. A second group of vehicles appeared, waiting. As the four-car caravan swept up to them, one swung in front of the car in which Calhoun and Murgatroyd rode.
