Sažetak
My psychoeducational strategy added ti psychopharmacotherapy is based on Cloninger's model of personality integrating biological, psychological, social and spiritual aspects of mental health. the character traits of self-directedness, cooperativeness and self-transcedence are very important for well-being. During maintenance treatment I stimulate patients to learn how to be more self-directed using psychocybernetic methods of thoughts, emotions and behavior management. Patients also can learn to be more cooperative improving their communication skills and relatioships with significant others. Last but not least, patients can learn to be more self-transcendent growing in spirituality, coping with challenges and enjoying life. Human consciousness is characterized by a capactiy for self-awareness and free choices that are not fully determined by past experience. This approach makes my maintenance therapy more effective and enjoyable for both my patients and myself.
