Ser la guardiana del Otro, para existir.

Abstract

Being the guardian of the Other, in order to exist, is the case of Miriam, who will work on the following writing, a 40-year-old woman, who has lived taking charge of the Other, has gone through situations that have caused her discomfort, which is directed to situations not only family, also with friends. That is why, Miriam, comes to the consultation because she feels anguished about her future, since her husband does not have a job and has had to take charge of the economic situation, as he has also done with the sufferings of her mother, father, sister and friends, putting aside her professional growth. Meanwhile, the listening space that Miriam was offered allowed to show that her speech, her anguish, around her problem, is located in a neurosis structure with a hysterical modality. The way of positioning herself before the Others is the way in which she enjoys, of being the “guardian” of suffering and creates its symptom. His desire is the desire of the Other: I want the same as my father "to take charge of the economic", I wish the same as my mother "To take charge of the family."
