Extract

Depersonalization has been so frequently reported in connection with incipient schizophrenia that some diagnosticians have regarded it as a pathognomonic sign of schizophrenia. More generally, however, it is regarded as a non-specific psychiatric syndrome since it has been reported in a variety of psychotic, neurotic and neurological disturbances (Ackner, 1954).
