A descriptive and cross-sectional study of 64 patients older than 18 years, in which 31 presented neurosis and 33 situational reaction due to stress who were diagnosed and assisted in the Psychiatry Service of "Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso" Teaching General Hospital in Santiago de Cuba, was carried out in the period of May to November, 2013, aimed at determining the characteristics of the blood tissue in them. To such effects hematological tests were made in all the series that were statistically analyzed through the percentage calculation, the mean and mean standard deviation. It could be concluded that neither monocytes nor basophilic existed in none of the patients, and that in those affected with situational reaction the eosinophilic appeared diminished, while in those that suffered from neurosis the cortisol had increased
