Five case histories showing prominence of paranoidal phantasies with erotic coloring, and stemming from a combination of character, experience, and milieu influences. All were sensitive, gentle persons with deep feeling for others. Most were Catholic and, in addition, suffered frustration in love and sexuality. In all cases psychoanalytic therapy led to disappearance of the symptoms.
