Abstract
El concepto de salud mental de occidente es diferente a la del mundo andino, ya que según la Organización Mundial de la Salud (2013), define el término de salud bajo el paradigma de bienestar humano que incluye las necesidades básicas, sin embargo dentro del mundo andino y la cultura Aymara, es el equilibrio y la armonía en varios planos, la unidad espíritu-cuerpo. Por lo que el concepto de enfermedad es diferente en la cultura aymara que en el occidente. La esquizofrenia conocida en el mundo de la ciencia tiene diferentes causas, dentro del mundo andino los síntomas se pueden manifestar por diferentes razones todas con un discurso mítico propios de su cultura. Entonces el sistema de creencia del origen de la enfermedad es diferente, por lo que la intervención puede variar. En el estudio de caso de Ceferina, paciente de origen aymara que estuvo hospitalizada en el psiquiátrico "San Juan de Dios" no pudo reaccionar ante el tratamiento proporcionado por este, la razones están muy relacionadas a la medicina tradicional que tuvo antes de su internación, además de que no obtuvo el apoyo suficiente de su familia, lo que perjudicó brutalmente a la paciente. Todo esto se vio a través de un análisis de la estructura familiar y el sistema de creencias que ésta tiene con respecto a la enfermedad.
The concept of mental health in the West is different from the Andean world, since according to the World Health Organization (2013) defines the term health under the paradigm of human welfare that includes basic needs, however in the world Andean and Aymara culture, is balance and harmony at various levels, spirit-body unity. So the concept of disease is different in the Aymara culture in the West. Schizophrenia known in the world of science has different causes, in the Andean world can manifest symptoms for different reasons all with own mythic discourse of their culture. Then the belief system of the origin of the disease is different, so that intervention can vary. In the case study Ceferina, patient Aymara origin who was hospitalized in the psychiatric "San Juan de Dios" could not react to the treatment provided by this, the reasons are closely related to traditional medicine that had before admission, plus I did not get enough support from his family, which severely detracted the patient. All this was through an analysis of family structure and belief system that it has regarding the disease.
