Madness, whatever its modal version, is much more an eventuality in the personalization process, than an accident that happens by chance, or the obligatory effect of a cause. Knowing it, is not asking “why?” of “how?”, since the fundamental question seems to be “what for?”, in order to find out its meaning. The advent of disquiet by the psychological, as well as the fall of the materialistic monism, started a crisis in psychiaty. The substitution of the energetic by the substancial reference has driven to new psychological, psychoanalytical and social modes of conceiving the mental diseases.
