Abstract

It is only possible to diagnose an adjustment disorder if there is an explicit connection to a stressful life event. Clinically this disorder is marked by a wide variability of symptoms (e.g. depressive mood, anxiety). The prodromal symptoms have not been unequivocally differentiated from those of other mental disorders and normal adaptation processes. Nevertheless, the diagnosis is often made in clinical practice and, in particular, in primary care. Against this background, its significance is to be examined in association with internal medicine diseases.
