Automatic Sensual

Automaticity of sensory perception

Automatic actions manifest themselves in two forms: actions with preserved sensation (psychomotor automatisms) and under the influence of sensory images (sensory automatisms).

The characteristic features of automatisms are: 1. Frequent onset 2. Occurrence under certain conditions 3. Dependence on the state 4. Minor distortions 5. Ease of manifestation when an action is performed incorrectly 6. Occurrence without the participation of consciousness 7. Rapid loss of sensory image 8. Longer preservation (for motor forms) 9. Long-term nature 10. Distraction of attention in the process of performing automatism

Classic forms of autosomal automatism include speech - logospeech disorder, objective activity and behavior - psychophysiological disorders of motor skills (non-pathological, in neurotic patients).

Sensory automatisms. Spontaneous movements appear most clearly when a series of movements is repeated. The very appearance of sick people with similar appearance disorders strongly indicates that this is a truly unhealthy psyche. One of these episodes looks like this: a person suddenly begins to rub his hand - his left eye, cheek, etc.

Automatic sensory syndrome is a chronic disturbance of sensitivity in one or more limbs. It is considered a type of progressive sensory ataxia. The terms “sensitive automatism” and “sensory derealization disorder” are used as synonyms; The term “ataxic syndrome associated with automaticity” is also found. An isolated disorder of tactile sensitivity is characteristic, accompanied by sensitivity disorders and autonomic disorders. Sensory loss is experienced as numbness or tingling in an arm or leg, and hand disturbances are often described as a loss of control. Patients may complain of loss of sensation when their eyes are closed or during sleep; Hallucinations may occur in the area of ​​lost sensitivity. Patients often report that the arms and legs lie in the same direction. Visual hallucinations are often observed in the form of lost skin sensations in the form of objects, static or moving

Senestapia syndrome and autotopic syndrome are often characterized by the same mental disorder, determined by autoscopic vision in the form of images, the localization of which usually does not correspond to real parts of the body. The syndrome of senestopathic automatism is characterized by the following symptoms: * A feeling of a spontaneous process of displacement, rolling of any structure in various parts of the body and the entire body (“equitianesthesia”, “sensory recurrent kyphoscoliosis”, “thalamic flexor reflex” and other similar names). * Very vivid memories of how this movement could have taken place
