Dominique Simonney – A Few Observations Concerning a Psychoanalytical Cure of an Adolescent

 

THE LETTER 23 (Autumn 2001) pages 33-42

 

Based on a cure of a diabetic adolescent who refuses to take her medicine correctly, we will show how psychoanalysis allows this patient to free herself of blocks associated with the medical discourse.

The function of repetition will be highlighted through two series of recurring dreams; the link between repetition and enjoyment (puissance) will also be examined. Furthermore, this paper will call attention to the way psychoanalysis brings to light a subjects identifications, allowing him to set his sights on his desire by getting rid of certain symptoms which sign away his future.
