Three groups of patients were examined in the period of 1994-1999: adolescent (aged 15-18 years), middle-aged (25-59 years) and elderly (60 years and older) with non-psychotic mental disorders developing under the influence of everyday stressors. The highest tolerability to stressors was detected in the middle-aged group. The dominating stressors in the groups were: social situations in the adolescences; interfamily conflicts--in the middle-aged patients and a presence of disease--in the elderly. Stressogenic affective disorders occurred most often in all the groups; anxious-phobic states prevailed in adolescents; neurotic pictures with hysteri-form symptoms, converse type--in the middle age and anxious phobic disorders with primary psychoorganic appearances--in the elderly. Risk factors for psychogenic disorders are: male sex, "organic predisposition", accentuation of the personality, "destructive" types of family bringing up in the adolescences; female sex, signs of endogenic diathesis and reactive lability for the middle-aged patients and female sex, aging factor and related changes of personality as well as somatic diseases in the elderly.
