L’esordio della psicosi all’interno del trauma evolutivo: come il proprio background esperienziale può bloccare l’acquisizione di nuove rappresentazioni inficiando l’omeostasi interna

The following work aims to examine the relationship between the pathogenesis of psychosis and an individual’s experiential background, with a focus on traumatic experiences of a cumulative nature. It explores how events from the past and their failed integration can lead to the fragmentation of the psychobiological structure, understood as the dynamic balance among multiple interconnected brain regions. Furthermore, this work sought to explore, through the contributions of various authors, the role played by early life experiences, through which the individual is able to create representations and perceptions that enable them to orient themselves in the world and to acquire new knowledge to be integrated with what has already been stored. It also examines how cumulative traumatic experiences in childhood may reflect a blockage in the formation of new representations, thus serving as an effective springboard capable of triggering the onset of psychosis as a reflection of a developmental arrest, in which preverbal and primitive modes are reflected in adult life and the present moment.
