Sažetak
"Narative medicine promotes theraputic and recovery using fairy tales and traditional folk stories. Individuals are
capable of shaping their lives through various narrative strategies and re-authoring alternative stories that are concerned with
different aspects of acceptance and change. Psychotherapy through the eyes of stories and fairy tales can have two perspectives.
Firstly, fairy tale acts like a weft around which the very story/script of the patient is formed, which in itself becomes the basis for
interpreting the occurrence of a mental disorder. The second perspective is the perspective of healing or getting out of a "fairytale"
story/script by changing an incoherent life narrative into an alternative coherent narrative (reframing). The aim of this pilot case
studies approach was to use a narrative approach based on stories and fairy tales in order to promote psychological growth,
meaning in life, resilience, self-realization and improved well-being and highlight the dialectic of recovery, an interplay of
acceptance and change (reframing). With properly applied personalized narrative psychopharmacotherapy, the patient is capable of
changing their beliefs in order to reach a new meaning of life, and thus to facilitate the lowering of symptomatology, its dissaperance
and possibly even a cure, whatever that may mean for an individual. Considering its promising results, clinical implications and
possible further applications are discussed.
