motor excitement or inhibition

Introduction

Introduction The main symptoms of acute stress response are disturbance of consciousness (such as disorientation, attention deficit) accompanied by strong emotional changes and excitement or inhibition of mental activity (excitement, agitation, shouting, turmoil, increase, emotional outburst). A transient mental disorder caused by a sudden and unusually intense mental stimulation, a stressful life event or a persistent dilemma. If the stressor is eliminated, the symptoms tend to be short-lived, with a good prognosis and complete remission. Reducing the stimulating effects of intense, unusual mental stimulation, life events or persistent distress can play a preventive role.

Differential diagnosis

Psychomotor excitement: Coordinated psychomotor excitement refers to an increase in the patient's speech and movements consistent with thinking and emotional activities, and coordination with the environment. This increase in activity is purposeful and understandable. Non-coordinated psychomotor excitement refers to the inconsistency between the patient's movements and speech and the thinking and emotions. The patient's movements and speech are monotonous, lacking purpose and meaning, and it is difficult to understand. Therefore, the whole mental activity seems uncoordinated.

Uncoordinated excitement is manifested in the inconsistency between thoughts and feelings and their movements, and is common in schizophrenia.
