ABSTRACT
All of the symptoms and traits of neurotic and borderline people can also be present in psychoses. Just add ego decits in integration (looseness or ight of ideas), abstraction (concreteness), reality functions (dereistic thinking), self-preservation (suicide attempts), self-care (slovenliness), orientation (confusion), language (idiosyncrasy, stereotypy, neologisms), or containment of primary process (hallucination, delusion), and you have a psychosis of some kind.
