The third stage of ontological nihilism corresponds to the severance of the self-world structure. Consequently, all possible perspectives of self-consciousness, that is, the FPP, SPP, and TPP, are altogether impaired. Any possible healthy point of view is therefore impaired; hence, the schizophrenic individual experiences himself as dead or decayed. Simultaneously, experience concerning the world contains its doom or that the world has vanished. FPP, first-person-perspective; SPP, second-person-perspective; TPP, third-person-perspective.
