Silencing Phenomenon: Sudden disappearance of symptoms of psychosis

The phenomenon of silence is one of the most mysterious phenomena in psychiatry. It describes the sudden complete or partial spontaneous disappearance of symptoms of psychosis in patients who previously suffered from various mental illnesses.

Although this phenomenon has no scientific explanation yet, it is widely known in the medical community and is of great interest to psychiatrists and neuroscientists. Some research suggests that the silencing phenomenon may be related to changes in the brain that occur during psychotic states.

However, not all patients suffering from psychosis experience the phenomenon of silencing. The exact cause of this phenomenon also remains unknown. Some scientists suggest that this may be due to changes in the levels of neurotransmitters in the brain that regulate mood and behavior.

Although the phenomenon of silencing may be perceived as a positive outcome for the patient, it can also have negative consequences. For example, patients who have experienced silencing may stop taking their medications because they feel better, which may lead to a relapse of psychosis.

Most patients who experience silencing require further monitoring and treatment. Psychiatrists should provide patients with information that the phenomenon of silencing does not indicate healing, and that treatment must be continued to prevent possible relapse of psychosis.

In conclusion, the phenomenon of silencing remains one of the most mysterious phenomena in medicine. Although a scientific explanation for its causes has not yet been found, psychiatrists and neuroscientists continue to study this phenomenon to better understand its mechanisms and develop effective treatments for patients suffering from psychosis.

The phenomenon of silencing (English Cessation of Psychosis, CoP) is a sudden complete or significant decrease in the intensity of psychotic symptoms, often accompanied by temporary psychophysiological stabilization.

It was first described by the Swedish psychiatrist Gustav Lindqvist Hanselman in 1938. Formally, the phenomenon of silence is characteristic of schizophrenia (the most common cause), depressive and anxiety disorders, but can also be observed in various conditions. The term may be used incorrectly to refer to qualitative changes in psychotic symptoms due to a concomitant illness, for example, infectious or toxic
