We have been very interested in the article of Castellon et al. (2000) on the neuropsychiatric disturbances present in HIV-infection, which reports results very congruent with those published previously by our research group. Indeed, for many years we have studied psychopathological perturbations (depression and anxiety) as well as more specific emotional dimensions like emotional deficit and loss of control in HIV positive patients.
