resolve in a matter of hours or within a few days without clinical treatment, or can instead constitute initial symptoms
of a primary psychosis. The objective of this paper is to focalise on a series of psychodynamic aspects, detectable by the
analysis of relational dynamics brought into play by the person who has used substances and suffers a psychotic crisis. These
aspects can be used as criteria of differential diagnosis to integrate the first assessment of those psychopathological
characteristics described in literature which distinguish a toxic psychosis from a primary psychosis. The diagnostic process
is thus developed with the method of clinical observation and evaluation, for which the essential cognitive tool is formed
by the sensibility of the therapist and their capacity to evaluate the quality of the patient’s mental reactions to the stimulus
provoked by the development of the therapeutic relationship, including oniric activity. This paper proposes, on the basis
of many years of research and clinical experience, diagnostic criteria also in dream analysis, as oniric images can reveal
hidden thoughts and dynamics that could be pathological. The theoretical platform to which reference is made and presented
in detail in this paper is known as “Human Birth Theory” (Teoria della nascita), formulated by Massimo Fagioli in 1971.
The therapist involved in the therapeutic relationship can stimulate the internal mental world of the patient, proposing
himself/herself as both a diagnostic and therapeutic instrument. The interpretation can give back to the patient their selfknowledge and the possibility to transform their unconscious relational methods through the therapeutic process,
as documented in two case reports presented in this paper. The case reports, explained in a form of single-case studies,
describe the application of an integrated method in which the use of standardized instruments of assessment is flanked with
the interpretation of oniric images in order to render greater diagnostic certainty as well as more incisive therapeutic treatment.
