Object: Sjögren's syndrome is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease. When it involves the central nervous system, the patient can have psychotic disorder, mood disorder and personality disorder. Case Report: A 54-year-old female patient with Sjögren's syndrome presented psychotic and mood symptoms. She showed obvious psychotic and mood symptoms when the autoimmune antibodies are active. Immunosuppressants and antipsychotics are prescribed to treat her symptoms and signs. Patient's psychiatric symptoms were improved when the activity of Sjögren's syndrome was subsided. Conclusion: For patients with autoimmune diseases and with psychiatric symptoms, the physician needs to treat the underlying diseases effectively to get their psychiatric conditions improved.
