    The Japanese Journal of Psychiatry and Neurology
    |December 1, 1986
    PubMed
    Summary

    Depersonalization is rare in adolescents. Children struggle to articulate depersonalization symptoms, potentially leading to missed diagnoses in pediatric psychiatric care.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychiatry
    • Developmental Psychology

    Background:

    • Depersonalization is a rare psychiatric condition.
    • Onset in early adolescence or pre-adolescence is particularly uncommon.

    Observation:

    • This study details 6 cases of depersonalization with onset before age 15.
    • Children's difficulty expressing subjective experiences (negative symptoms) complicates diagnosis.
    • Observed cases exhibited passive interpersonal traits, frustration, and feelings of inferiority.

    Findings:

    • Depersonalization in minors is often initially overlooked due to communication barriers.
    • Children utilize similes rather than metaphors to describe depersonalization.
    • Common personality traits include passivity, easy frustration, and a sense of inferiority.

    Implications:

    • Increased clinical awareness is needed to identify depersonalization in children.
    • Developing age-appropriate diagnostic tools for pediatric depersonalization is crucial.
    • Understanding communication differences in minors is key to accurate psychiatric assessment.
