Abstract
Research and experience with 266 patients show that psychotherapy is an important element in the treatment of this disease, the etiology of which is still unknown. It widens the therapeutic possibilities of drugs, diet and operation. The different steps of psychotherapy combined with relaxation and removal of stress are described. The personality of the patient before the outbreak of the disease, his unknown conflicts may influence its course as well as the alteration caused by the disease itself, especially depression, mental lability and anorexia.
