Abstract:
We report th case of a 45-year-old woman who was referred to our hospital for a treatment of analgetic substance abuse. Surprisingly she reported after some time that she had been hearing imperative and commenting voices for 12 years. We discuss the importance of negative symptoms for the diagnosis of schizophrenia.
