Abstract

Recently, the group of symptoms known as "subjective experiences" of schizophrenia has raised a growing interest. These phenomena have been shaped through concepts like depersonalization-derealization, mental automatism, disorders of the self and autism. The authors propose to review these syndromes, as well as their relationship with subjectivity understood as consciousness of the self (or self-awareness) and the shortcomings due to such a relationship. To finish, we will provide some hints into psychopathology understood as a technique of production of intelligibility which will hopefully help to provide a better grasp of the process described above.
