29.3% men. Readmissions: 1.7%. Their origin was: psychiatric hos-
pitalization (53.5%), outpatient department (31%), emergency room
(13.8%) and Centre for Psychosocial Rehabilitation (1.7%). 41 out of
58 patients have been discharged. Reasons for discharge: improve-
ment (78%), referral to other units (7.4%), voluntary discharge (4.8%)
and others (9.8%). The destination on discharge was: outpatient
department (90.4%), Centre for Psychosocial Rehabilitation (4.8%),
and Inpatient Rehabilitation Unit (4.8%). The most frequent diag-
noses on discharge were: bipolar affective disorder, adaptation,
emotionally unstable personality disorder, dysthymia, persistent
delusional disorders, specific personality disorders and severe
depressive episode with psychotic symptoms.
Conclusions
The Psychiatric Day Hospital is an intensive treat-
ment unit with a partial hospitalization system, which is
distinguished by the variety of patients it is able to admit, as well
as the clinical and management benefits the dynamic of these units
can provide.

Introduction
Patients with epilepsy seem particularly liable to
certain major psychiatric disorders. Prevalence of schizophrenia
within an epileptic population varies between 3% and 7% (1% in
general population). The aetiology is possibly multifactorial (drugs
and neurosurgery).
Objectives
To study comorbidity betweenpsychoses and epilepsy
and management in the literature and in our patients.
Aims
To analyze factors that might influence the onset of psy-
choses within an epileptic population and how this potential
association could influence our practice.
Methods
PubMed search was conducted with interest in psy-
choses of epilepsy, pharmacology, and comorbidity. Up to 10
variables related with factors influencing psychotic episodes that
required hospital admission in three patients with epilepsy were
studied.
Results
Unlike published data, our patients did not have postic-
tal psychoses. All cases had early onset temporal lobe epilepsy
with no seizure activity since diagnosis (more than 20 years).
No family history of either epilepsy or psychoses. Management
included lamotrigine, oxcarbazepine, carbamazepine, zonisamide,
and levetiracetam in conventional doses. The psychosis, which
comprised affective, schizophrenic, and confusional elements,
lasted longer and was more troublesome than psychosis in non-
epileptic patients. Response to neuroleptics was poorer than in
non-epileptic patients with psychoses. Consultation with Neu-
rology Unit resulted in end of treatment with zonisamide and
levetiracetam.
Conclusions
Less than perfect evidence suggests the association
between psychosis and epilepsy. In our patients, no postictal cases
were recorded. Management showed poorer effect of neuroleptics
when compared with non-epileptics, and zonisamide and leve-
tiracetam were changed for other drugs with presumably lower
association with psychoses.

Psychiatry clinics have a high importance for treatment of psy-
chological problems. In some cases, individuals can stay in the
inpatient treatment units after having being diagnosed a mental
illness. Only Ergün
[1] gives information about the physical sta-
tus of psychiatry clinics, educational status and the number of the
healthcare personnel in Turkey in her master thesis. For that rea-
son, obtaining data for therapeutic milieu of the psychiatry clinics
in Turkey will contribute to the development of contemporary psy-
chiatry approach. This research is cross-sectional and definitive.
Survey form of 42 questions has been prepared in the research.
The data has been collected between the dates of 15th July–25th
June by the researcher. The sampling involves all hospitals having
psychiatry clinics in Turkey (
n
= 195). As a result of the research, it
is found that psychiatry clinics in Turkey are not sufficient in terms
of some of the therapeutic milieu features and sufficient for some.
The nurses actively participate in the clinic activities. The interview
room, dining hall and recreational rooms in the clinics are not suf-
ficient. The group therapy, sweet day activities and sport activities
are not conducted sufficiently. The researchers suggest developing
the psychiatry clinics in terms of therapeutic milieu.

Knowing conversion disorder is the key to understand the com-
plex human’s unconsciousness at the beginning of psychoanalysis.
In conversion disorder, a mental trauma is repressed to an individ-
ual’s unconsciousness, and then displays itself as some neurological
symptoms. Here, we introduce the case of a young girl who expe-
rienced a minor car accident without any organ injury. She did
not have any problem for a week after the accident. However, she
started to have stuttering when shemet with her mother. The note-
worthy point is that her mother had the experience of a sexual
abuse in a car, which caused her to start stuttering afterwards. We
will discuss here whether this is a type of conversion by proxy.
