Silencios que angustian.

Abstract

The case to present was worked under the modality of case analysis and was called Silences that distress. This is an obsessive neurotic patient named Christopher who suffers from a series of situations where he reacted violently, which interrogate him about whether something is wrong with himself and that is how he decides to begin a process of analysis. During the sessions he could say that what bothered him the most was the sadness he felt and the inability to communicate adequately with his family. After the death of his mother, Christopher fell into great sadness, with feelings of loneliness, isolation and passivity. He constantly reproached himself for his silence and inactivity. With the analysis it was possible to demonstrate all these symptomatic manifestations were part of its obsessive structure. The theme of death will be a key point for the development of this case, because, throughout his life, Christopher had to carry many deaths of which he ne ver made the respective duel, a situation that in his adulthood would generate a great discomfort. The typical obsessive symptoms that occur in the case are related to the method used by the obsessive to avoid encountering his desire, with the lack of being. The concept of ghost will also be very important to understand the dynamics of the subject in relation to the Other.
