Abstract

The psychotic patient, no matter what his underlying character structure may be, reacts against deprivation with the defense of a break with reality. Intensive EN quickly produces a state in which gratification of infantile needs becomes the basis for reality contact. While reality contact is sustained with maintenance EN, re-education leads to a secure basis for restructuring psychotherapy. This, in turn, makes the defensive break with reality unnecessary.
