VIII. PSYCHODYNAMICS A.GENETICS: According to Videbeck, chapter 14 pages 278-279, genetics played a significant role in the acquisition of schizophrenia. Most studies focused on relationship on parents, siblings and off springs. The closer the relationship is the greater the risk of developing it. Twins have 50% of getting the same illness and siblings have 15% of doing so. Children with one biologic parent with schizophrenia have also 15% of risk, and the risk rises to 35% if both biologic parents have schizophrenia. In the case of the patient, her parents are not schizophrenic, but on her mother side, her mother’s sister had mental illness. This may have predisposed the patient to develop schizophrenia.

B. NEUROCHEMICAL Dopamine is an excitatory neurotransmitter which controls complex movements, motivation, cognition, and regulates emotional response. Alteration of this neurotransmitter, in which the neuronal networks that transmit information by electrical signals from a nerve cell through its axon and across synapses to postsynaptic receptors on other nerve cells seem to malfunction, is implicated in Schizophrenia and other psychoses because the transmission of the signal across the synapse requires a complex series of biochemical events,and thus the increase of dopamine causes schizophrenia. Serotonin is an inhibitory neurotransmitter which controls food intake, sleep and wakefulness, temperature regulation, pain control, sexual behaviors and regulation of emotions. It is one of the leading neurochemical factors affecting schizophrenia. It suggests that serotonin modulates and helps to control excess dopamine. Thus the excess of serotonin itself contributes to the development of schizophrenia. It has been found to contribute to the delusions, hallucinations, and withdrawn behavior seen in schizophrenia.

C. INTRAPSYCHIC

The patient and patient’s family belongs to the religion, Roman Catholic. Although they live in a rural setting, they don’t have superstitious beliefs. The patient’s religion believes in one God with a triune person; they also believe in saints. It also nurtures friendship and brotherly love for one another. Within patient’s self, he has a struggle between trust and mistrust. Before the onset of recent illness, the patient started to build a positive intrapsychic condition by acquiring social contact with churchmates.

D. PSYCHOSOCIAL: Infancy: - Mistrust According to Erikson as sited in Wikipedia, the concept of trust vs. mistrust is present throughout a person’s life. Therefore, if it is not handled carefully, it may come up anytime during adulthood. According to S.O., the patient was breastfed, but was not carefully nurtured as a child. The pt’s S.O. admitted that they constantly neglected their son as a child because of the reason that they needed to work to provide their children’s needs the best they could. Because of that, the pt would always find a way to get attention from his parents. He grew up to be a very obedient young boy, smart and talented in his own way. He was a chess player, an achiever, and a good guitarist. He was also very religious, and would be the one who convinces his family to go to church and attend mass. He was very loving towards his family, and would always say sorry every time he did something wrong. However, his bad luck started when he was in the fifth grade of elementary. Their neighbors would always tease him and make him do things against his will. They would bare him naked in the streets, and in front of others. The worst thing was, they made him use prohibited drugs. It continued until college, when another thing came up. The patient failed in his accountancy subject for the reason that he was unable to focus during the examination because he was already abusing drugs. That was when he got very embarrassed and had an outburst of behavior. “Nagwild na siya. Iyang gisumbag iyang papa,” according to pt’s mother. Still, he continued attending classes, but since then, he became very suspicious and mistrustful of others. “ Musulti na siya sa ako nga paminaw daw niya kay ginalantaw siya sa tanan. Dayon, straight ra iya makita. Mahugaw gud na siya usahay kay maabot man siya sa kanal ug lakaw,” according to pt’s mother. Toddler: - Autonomy According to Erikson, during the toddler stage, a child must be allowed to explore and be trained for bowel and bladder training. If this is mastered, autonomy will develop. In the case of the patient, he was allowed to explore things he wanted, he was given choices. He was taught bowel and bladder training in a not strict and not laxed manner. He was able to master complete bowel and bladder training at the age of one and a half years old. Because of this, the patient developed independence, generosity, ability to delay gratification, self-control and cooperativeness. In this area, patient is successful. Preschooler: - Guilt According to Erikson, in the preschooler stage, the child begins to learn things around him. He may learn basic skills, count and speak with ease. Thus, it is very important that a child should be given gender-specific toys and plays with same-gender children for him to be fully aware of his environment, and of himself. However, guilt is a new emotion that will arise and this may confuse the child. He may feel guilty over things he should not be. In the case of the patient, he was not able to rule out which actions should he be guilty of and which he should not. According to his mother, pt would always find a way to get attention. He was jealous of his younger brother when they were still small. Pt also gets very excited when given a new toy to play with. “ Dili na siya katulog basta naay bag-ong dulaan”, according to mother. Pt feels guilty when he did something wrong and unacceptable, and he would readily ask for forgiveness

from his parents. Pt also experienced much embarrassment when he failed his subject. In addition to that, he became reluctant to show his emotions to others and avoids activities for pleasure. School Age: - Industry In this stage, children are becoming more aware of themselves as individuals. They work hard at being responsible, being good and doing right. In the case of the patient, during her elementary days, the patient worked hard to study, to do well. The patient learned reading, writing, telling time. All these efforts were supported by his parents. He was encouraged to learn more. Thus, the patient developed industry. According to parents, pt is an achiever. He is also good at playing chess, and guitar. He is obedient and not rebellious. Adolescence: - Identity According to Erikson, during the stage of adolescence, a person would seek to develop fixed sexual identity. The question “who am I?” must be clearly answered. The person’s search for identity is manifested by patient’s choice of career. In the case of the patient, he was able to make decisions for himself. He was also able to know who he is and what he is. He was also able to choose his own career. All his efforts to pass this stage was supported, thus identity was developed. Young Adulthood: According to Erikson, the stage of young adulthood is the stage where young adults form loving relationships and meaningful attachments to others especially to the opposite sex. In the case of the patient, he was not able to form long lasting relationships with the opposite sex. According to his mother, pt was a “chick boy” during his adolescent years. Pt also claimed of having twelve girlfriends in the past. However, later in the year 1999, pt fell in love with someone very special to him. This was, according to his mother, the one he treated seriously. The relationship lasted for a while, but soon came to an end because the girl went to Hongkong to live with her family. That was his very first real heartbreak. Pt did not have any intimate relationship after that. It was, along with other stressors of his life, may be one of the reasons for his present condition.

E. PSYCHOSEXUAL: Oral Stage: During this stage, the focus of gratification is on the mouth and pleasure is the result of proper nursing; also, because of exploration of the surroundings as infants tend to put objects in their mouths. In the case of the patient, he was breastfed as a child but did not receive consistent maternal care. As a result, the patient demonstrated fixation in this stage- paranoia. The student nurses conduct that this has developed because even though he was breastfed, pt was not properly taken care of as a child. He was also abused by their neighbors. This might be the reason why he found it hard to trust others, and have intimate relationships with the opposite sex. This is also congruent to Erickson’s theory that the conflict trust vs. mistrust continues throughout a person’s life.

Anal Stage: The major experience during this stage is toilet training and the area of gratification is the anus. This conflict must be resolved gradually; not strict so that patient will not develop OCD, nor lax so patient will not develop passive aggressive personality disorder, nor dysfunctional so patient will not develop borderline personality disorder. In the case of the patient, his toilet training was moderate, gradual and non-traumatic. According to mother, the patient was asked to voice out need for bowel/bladder release and he would be assisted to do

so. Complete bladder/bowel training without assistance was achieved when he was one and a half years old. Thus, pt was able to achieve gratification at this stage. Phallic Stage: This stage is focused on the genitals as the main area of gratification. Although the genitals are the area of gratification, this does not refer to the sexual relationship adults have. Stimulation of the genitals is welcomed as pleasurable. In this stage also, children seek attachment by trying to find out who among their parents carry the same genitals like them. In this stage, the conflicts Oedipus and Electra conflicts arise. The ego resolves this by repression, and identifying one’s genitals with the parents. In the case of the patient, he underwent stage of stimulating genitals for pleasure. Fortunately, the patient did not fixate in this stage because he was able to identify himself with his father. However, pt is not close with his father for some reasons pt did not disclose. Latency Stage: Latency stage is the stage of dormant sexual feelings. In this stage, the child’s attention is diverted to play. This is the result of the resolution of Electra and Oedipus complexes through the repression of the phallic stage. In the case of the patient, he was able to divert his energy to play. According to his parents, the patient is an achiever. He is also good at playing chess, and guitar. Children during this stage do not usually develop fixation; however if they do, it is because of inadequate repression of the ego of the premature sexual thoughts. As a result, they become extremely sexually unfulfilled. In the case of the patient, fixation in this stage cannot be assessed because patient did no have any sexual relationships with his girlfriends. Genital Stage: This is the last stage of psychosexual development which starts on the 12 th year of age and continues until development stops which is approximately 21st year of age. The major task in this stage is detachment from parents and forming love relationships. In this stage, sexual drives return but is expressed in adult sexuality. In the case of the patient, he is now 28 years old but he still lives with his family, and was able to commit to intimate relationships with the opposite sex but not to sexual relationships.

F. COGNITIVE THEORY OF DEVELOPMENT Sensory Motor: Infants are born with set of congenital reflexes. According to Piaget, the sensory motor stage is the stage where reflexes are modified into coordinated movements and where habits are formed. This is also the stage where a child learns object permanence. In the case of the patient, he was able to pass successfully into this stage. He learned to walk when he was 8 months old. Pt learned to play every waking time and cry to get attention of people around him. He was able to recognize his family even though he’s not seeing them. He knows he has parents even when they’re not around, and he would always find them. In the later part of this stage, the patient was able to say single words such as mama and papa. Preoperational: The preoperational stage is the stage when children develop their language skills. They begin representing things with words and symbols. They also begin attributing emotions to inanimate objects and they are fond of bedtime stories. In the case of the patient, the patient

developed full language skills at the age of 4 and learned to count at the age of 5. However, pt’s active imagination and intuition were not fully recognized because his parents were not always there to supervise him.

Concrete Operational: This stage proceeds from pre-logical to concrete thoughts. The child learns the concepts of conservation, reversibility, classification, and inductive reasoning, as well as concepts of morality, numbers, and spatial relationships. In the case of the patient, he, according to his mother, is very good in academics. He is also very religious, obedient, and has a high regards for moral values. The student nurses therefore conclude that the pt passed this stage successfully.

Formal Operational: This is the last and final stage of cognitive development. The student nurses conclude that the patient does not have problem in this area because he was able to acquire ability to think abstractly, reason logically, use critical thinking, and draw conclusions from careful investigation of things.

G. ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS: According to Wikipedia, environmental factors such as social adversity, urbanicityand failed close relationships cannot cause but can precipitate schizophrenia. In the case of the patient, experiences like inattention from parents, social embarrassment from persons in their community who belittle him, failure in academics, and heartbreak from intimate relationship precipitated the development of paranoid schizophrenia. The patient started to be suspicious of others; he became very mistrustful of people and environment, thinking that they are trying to persecute him. He became anxious when he is in public places, giving rationalization to his being socially isolated. The patient’s signs and symptoms of schizophrenia were controlled by medicines. The patient was in and out of the mental institution because his psychotic episodes are intermittent, until recently, when he constantly displayed violent behavior towards other people, and he can not be controlled by his parents anymore. Thus, pt was admitted permanently in the mental institution, staying for treatment and rehabilitation up to the present.
