I.INTRODUCTION

Our patient Mrs. M.J is a 54 years old woman residing at Cambio, San Miguel, Bulacan which was diagnosed with Undifferentiated Schizophrenia. She was admitted on October 16, 2008.

Undifferentiated Schizophrenia manifests an insidious and gradual reduction in external relations and interests. The patients emotions lack depth and ideations is simple and refers to concrete things. There are a relative absence of mental activity, a progressive lessening in the use of inner resource and a retreat to simpler or stereotyped forms of behavior.

Schizophrenia causes two groups of symptoms: Negative symptoms and Positive Symptoms. Negative symptoms generally include lack of motivation, self neglect (such as not bathing) and reduce or inappropriate emotion such as (becoming angry with strangers). A negative symptom usually appears first and maybe confused with depression. Positive symptoms which generally appear later, includes symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions and disorganized or confusing thoughts or speech.

This condition meets the general diagnostic criteria for schizophrenia (characterized in general by fundamental and characteristic distortions of thinking and perception and by inappropriate or blunted affect), but not conforming to any of the subtypes (paranoid, disorganized or catatonic), or exhibiting the features of more than one of them without a clear predominance of a particular set of diagnostic characteristics. This rubric should be used only for psychotic conditions and after an attempt has been made to classify the condition into one of the three preceding categories.

Schizophrenia usually diagnosed in late adolescence or early adulthood. Rarely does it manifest in childhood. The peak incidence of onset is 15-25 years old for men and 25-35 years old for women (American Psychiatric Association, 2010). The prevalence of Schizophrenia is estimated at about 1% of the total population. In the United States that translates to nearly 3million people who are have been or will be affected by the disease. The incidence and lifetime prevalence are roughly the same throughout the world.

Mrs. MJ was diagnosed to have Undifferentiated Schizophrenia since she was 50 years old.

II.

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK

According to Sigmund Freud (1856-1939), he believed that the human personality functions at three level of awareness, conscious, preconscious and unconscious. The unconscious is the realm of the thought and feelings that motivate a person even though he or she is totally unaware of them. This realm includes most defense mechanisms and some instinctual drives or motivations. In the case of Mrs. M.J, she believed that According to Harry Stack Sullivan (1892-1949), interpersonal relationships are significant in the theory of personality development. He believed that ones personality involves more than individual characteristics, particularly how one interacts with others. Sullivan thought that inadequate or non-satisfying relationships produce anxiety, which he saw as the basis for all environmental problems. On our client, Mrs. MJ states that the past relationships with her husband were not successful. She was left by her husband because of another woman and has his own family right now, and her two siblings have their own too. Our client feels neglected and this may have triggered her condition. Sullivan established 5 life stages of development Infancy, childhood, juvenile, preadolescence and adolescence, each focusing on various interpersonal relationships. He also described 3 developmental Cognitive Models of experience and believed that mental disorders are related to the persistence of one of the early modes. The prototaxic mode, characteristics of infancy and childhood, involves brief unconnected experiences that have no

relationship to one another. Adults with Schizophrenia exhibit persistent prototaxic experiences. Our client was seen talking, being noisy without any connection, and sleepless which is an example of prototaxic experiences. According to Carl Rogers (1902-1987), stated in his client centered theory that clients are the key to healing process, within a supportive and nurturing client therapist relationship, they can cure themselves. Clients are in the best position to know their own experiences and make sense of them to regain their self-esteem and to progress to self-actualization. The patient in this case study cooperates well with the health team of the hospital, because she wants in her own motivation to get well from her present condition. In Abraham Maslows Hierarchy of needs , the basic drives on needs that motivate people were arranged in a pyramid. Even though the patient has the most basic needs (food, water, shelter, etc.) still patient do not have good sleep which we all know that sleep is one of the physiologic needs. She was also lacking in love and belongingness that she needs from her family because she doesnt have visitors at all since Mrs. MJ was admitted here in Mariveles, Mental Hospital.

INTERPRETATION OF PATIENT AND NURSE PLAY THERAPY The patient cooperates well in this activity. She enjoyed it a lot. Mrs. MJ was smiling all throughout the game.

ART THERAPY In this Activity, we asked the client to color a book. The color they will choose represents their feelings and emotions. Color red was the most dominant color on her work. Red color means hostility. We also ask them to draw their 3 wishes and interpret it afterwards. She drew first an apple, she said it was her favorite and the last time she ate it was on Christmas. Next thing she drew was a duck. According to her, they do have ducks before and she misses taking care of their ducks. Third thing she drew was a watermelon. She said it was also her favorite food. Her mother usually gave her watermelon when she was a child.

SONG AND DANCE THERAPY This activity helps the client to encourage them to express their emotions through music and body movements. Our client enjoyed this activity a lot. She likes to sing and she has beautiful voice. After that therapy, she told us her favorite song and singer. And it was nice to hear some stories from her.

PHOTOTHERAPY This activity helps the client to freely express their feelings about the photo. We asked them to looked at the photo and tell us what they feel about that. Mrs. MJ cooperates well, she even recognized those photos. She can also identified the use of those photos. This therapy help our client to redirect or orient her into reality.

MOVIE THERAPHY This activity helps the patient to express his/her feelings which may reflect their personal experiences. Our client enjoyed watching the film, they do not have television inside the hospital. She also stated that she misses her mother a lot when she saw the girl on the movie.
