Patients suffering from severemental illness often turn to spirituality to help cope with their difficulties, in particular to (re)discover meaning in life.Some thereby try to explain their symptoms through religious causes.Generally, turning to spirituality in this way can be adaptive or on the contrary, detrimental. This question and its therapeutic consequences arediscussed and illustrated through clinical examples.
患有严重精神疾病的患者常常求助于精神层面的东西来帮助应对困难,尤其是为了(重新)发现生活的意义。有些人因此试图通过宗教原因来解释自己的症状。一般来说,以这种方式求助于精神层面的东西可能具有适应性,或者相反,是有害的。本文将通过临床实例讨论并阐述这个问题及其治疗后果。
