Morbid Jealousy Featuring as Obsessive-Compulsive Neurosis: Treatment by Behavioural Psychotherapy

SummaryMorbid jealousy can occasionally be indistinguishable from obsessive-compulsive neurosis and then be partially amenable to broad-spectrum behavioural treatment. This can involve the partner and includes (a) methods to reduce jealousy and (b) other methods where appropriate, such as social skills training, and sex and marital therapy. This pilot study describes such treatment of four jealous out-patients. Rituals improved in three patients but ruminations in only one. Of three patients who were depressed at the start of treatment, two improved in rituals and in mood. The patient who failed was poorly motivated and did not comply with treatment.

O presente trabalho investigou como, com que freqüência e com qual efetividade o treino em habilidades sociais foi utilizado como tratamento principal de pessoas com o diagnóstico de Transtorno Obsessivo-Compulsivo (TOC) através da análise de um levantamento bibliográfico. A base de dados utilizada foi o PsycINFO. Os critérios de busca de artigos foram: (a) escritos em inglês; (b) publicados em periódicos; (c) que contivessem os termos “Obsessive Compulsive Neurosis” e “Social Skills Training” (e termos correlacionados a estes). Foram encontrados 18 artigos, dos quais 10 foram analisados e organizados em tabelas. Notou-se que, embora as pesquisas sobre TOC tenham aumentado em número de publicações ao longo dos anos, poucas têm indicado as habilidades sociais como fator relevante para o tratamento. Nenhuma das pesquisas examinadas teve como objetivo avaliar o efeito de intervenções em habilidades sociais em casos de TOC.

SummaryA young man was followed-up over three years who had severe obsessive-compulsive rituals and ruminations, interpersonal deficits, complicating depression and a history of childhood autism. Intensive behavioural treatment was given in an operant framework, with exposure in vivo, modelling, response prevention and social skills training. Compulsive rituals improved markedly and lastingly, but ruminations and social defects persisted. When intercurrent depression occurred dothiepin facilitated behavioural treatment. Adjustment remained fragile. Minimum maintenance treatment in the community could not be adequately arranged, so that gains made in hospital were partly lost at follow-up, despite continuing improvement in rituals.
