Resumen
ORDONEZ FERNANDEZ, M. Prado. Hysteria, Simulation or compensation neurosis?. Rev Clin Med Fam [online]. 2010, vol.3, n.1, pp.39-45. ISSN 2386-8201.
Primary care doctors and mental health professionals are witnessing an alarming increase in what López Ibor (1966) termed "problem-patients". For this author "problem-patients" are those for whom there is a disparity between objective and subjective symptoms. Are these patients, hysterical, simulators or compensation neurotics? The aim of this article is to retrace the origins and evolution of these neuroses in order to a gain a better understanding of this type of patient.
