In his history of cyclothymia (meaning in Greek: mood ring or circular mood, he makes it clear that
"cyclothymia is not a psychosis and it is not a normal character psychique.C life is somehow a very mild disease, a through: Border immediately preceding the pathological."


He continues: "In cyclothymia no function of the mind is reached. Humor is simply confused. There simply dysthymia. It's just a disease of emotional sensitivity, sometimes Hypothymis sometimes hyperthymic. These disorders are also so light that one has never detain the patient. In 1898, still in Germany, Hecker said the issue of cyclothymia "disease Circular emotional sensitivity "(Gemuthserkrankung). He observed with great accuracy the periods of excitement often escape the attention of the doctor because the patient and his entourage as normal considèerent (...) It highlights the so-called "free interval" between the two phases of the disease that never leads to mild dementia, madness.
It shows that, in reality, these intervals are not free, mood with daily changes "

Mr. Deny shows that many patients labeled psychasthenics, neurasthenic hereditary or constitutional within the scope of the cyclothymic, ie unbalanced moral sensitivity (...).
