Psychotic symptoms have traditionally been rationalized and
disregarded as products of the child's imagination. There has been
a professional reluctance to acknowledge that children could suffer
from severe psychotic disorders akin to adult subjects, and that
these symptoms merit a comprehensive and systematic evaluation.
Now, the area of child and adolescent psychoses is gaining
progressive recognition and interest, and has stimulated a keen
interest in the examination and detection of psychotic symptoms for
diagnostic, treatment and prognostic purposes of a variety of
psychiatric disorders of children and adolescents. The purpose of
this book is to demystify the interviewing diagnostic process of
psychosis in children and adolescents, and to provide a resource
for treatment.
The book will contain a guide to the interviewing process as well
as a review of differential diagnosis, followed by an overview on
psychosocial interventions. The latter half will deal with the use
of antipsychotic drugs, beginning with issues related to their use
in the field, followed by a review of literature on the subject,
atypical side effects, and implementation throughout treatment.
This book will fill a vacuum in the field of child and adolescent
psychosis, and will have a broad appeal and interest to general
psychiatrists, clinical psychologists, to child and adolescent
psychiatrists, and many other mental health professionals working
with disturbed children and adolescents.
