Abstrakt: Aim: To study the development of depressive disorders in women, the victims of domestic violence, who committed aggressive acts.
Material and Methods: Patients (n=12) were divided into two groups depending on acute depressive reaction in response to violence from husbands, which resulted in criminal acts. The first group included 4 women who killed their children and the second group included 8 women who killed their husbands. A psychopathological method was used in the study.
Results and Conclusion: Women of both groups shared the same features of the development of depression: the transition from a neurotic stage to a psychotic stage (with aggression) and then to the prolonged depression. Every stage had its own features, in particular during the criminal act, which are described in the article.
