“…Table 1 shows that most of the participants in this study had a short DUP; six of the nine participants had a DUP less than two weeks, and only two had a DUP of four weeks or more. These findings are consistent with our ethnographic studies, which suggest that initial care-seeking is often quite rapid, especially for cases with rapid onset (Good and Subandi 2004;Good et al 2019aGood et al , 2010. A short DUP seems to have a strong correlation with the rapidity of onset (Good et al 2019a).…”

“…Findings of this study are consistent with the hypothesis that acute psychoses have better outcomes than slow onset illnesses. However, throughout our work, we have insisted on considering acuteness of onset and long-term course independently and have found cases with extremely acute onset developing into psychoses that fluctuate over long periods of time or others that lead to persistent psychosis (Good and Subandi 2004;Good et al 2010).…”

Researchers have observed high rates of recovery from first episode psychosis in some cultural settings. This study explores the course and long‐term outcome of a small set of cases of first episode psychoses, focusing on clinical predictors of outcome and local cultural processes supporting recovery in Javanese society in Indonesia. Researchers followed nine individuals with a first episode of psychosis intensively during one year of ethnographic research and measured clinical markers of the outcome at onset and at two‐ and 14‐year follow‐ups. Despite some relapses, a majority of individuals substantially recovered at one year and continued to function near‐normal at 14 years; two cases represent long‐term illness. Clinical factors associated with recovery included the acute onset of illness and short duration of untreated psychosis. Ethnographic research identified cultural models, linked to Javanese folk stories and local Islamic ideas, and social and cultural processes supportive of recovery from psychosis.

In the early 1990s, while I was conducting an ethnographic study in a psychosocial rehabilitation center in Barcelona for people suffering from psychosis, a patient and informant gave me four letters that he had supposedly sent to various recipients. Only recently did I discover that these letters, which warned of terrible catastrophes, were related to the Marian apparitions of Garabandal in the 1960s in Spain, and that their recipients had all been involved in this amazing event. This discovery led me to attempt an ethnographic reparation, and to reconsider the letters as a way of inhabiting the world. With this objective and drawing on Ernesto de Martino's concept of “crisis of presence,” I propose to understand the informant's experience as an extreme example of the porosity of presence. I conclude that the letters can be understood as the affected person's struggle for being in a human history. [crisis of presence, Garabandal apparitions, reflexivity, schizophrenia]
