German term

Ich-Erlebnisstörungen

German to English Medical Psychology
I think these kinds of disorders are associated with schizophrenia but I can't find an exact English term. Not a lot of context except "Es besteht kein Anhalt auf Ich-Erlebnisstoerungen".

disturbed self-processing

I was searching for disturbances in experiences of self and came across this web-site. An interest in this field stems from being a practitioner of Cranio-Sacral Therapy.

depersonalisation

Wikipedia:
"Depersonalization (or depersonalisation) is an anomaly of self-awareness. It consists of a feeling of watching oneself act, while having no control over a situation."
German also uses the English word.
Peer comment(s):

neutral Helen Shiner : This would be only one of many disturbances in experiencing the self./But if you read about schizophrenia, these disturbances go beyond just depersonalisation. i.e. it is only one of the possible forms of disordered self-perception. Thus the umbrella term

Your suggestion seems to be just a different version of mine. My Wikipedia reference says "anomaly of self awareness", which is an almost exact translation of "Ich-Erlebnisstörung".
agree Anne Schulz : for schizophrenia, "depersonalisation" is the appropriate term

Self-disorder and subjective dimensions of suicidality in schizophrenia.



Borut Skodlar, Josef Parnas


University Psychiatric Hospital, University of Ljubljana, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia.
Comprehensive psychiatry (Impact Factor: 2.08). 01/2010; 51(4):363-6. DOI:10.1016/j.comppsych.2009.11.004

ABSTRACT We studied 25 schizophrenia patients using the Examination of Anomalous Self-Experience phenomenological interview framework. In a previous study, this sample was qualitatively interviewed concerning subjective reasons for suicidal ideation. We hypothesized that 2 main identified reasons for suicidality, that is, sense of solitude and inferiority feelings, would be associated with disturbances measured by the Examination of Anomalous Self-Experience scale, that is, disorders of self-awareness and self-presence. The hypothesis was empirically supported. The results shed some additional light on suicidality in schizophrenia: it appears to be partly motivated by a disordered sense of self.

altered perception of ego

Das Ich is the ego, so a disturbed or altered sense of ego perception might be an Ich-Erlebnisstorungen. Just another view...
Peer comment(s):

neutral Helen Shiner : Ich can also be translated as 'self'.
