[Epidemiological study of psychiatric and psychosocial emergencies at the University Hospital of the Free University in Brussels (AZ-VUB)].

This epidemiological study in a psychiatric emergency ward demonstrates the existence of a population in Psychosocial Crisis. An operational definition of Psychosocial Crisis is proposed on the basis of psychopathological and psychosocial scales. Suicide attempts are extremely frequent in this population. It appears to be very difficult to bring a prospective study in an emergency ward to a successful conclusion.

[Psychotherapy-drugs combined. Clinical case (depression-neurosis)].

A patient suffering from phobic nevrose has presented a depressive episode. The author is concerned with the psychodynamic and transferential signification of her oppositional attitude toward antidepressive drugs and her more positive, but rapid, attitude to the anxiolytic drugs. It appears that problem concerning the identification to the father, the public incorporation and penis desire determine the phobia toward the antidepressive drug. The self administration of anxiolytic drugs and his transferential elements explain the positive attitude to them.
