When the cure stops…
A cure has a beginning and, with a few exceptions, it does not last for all of the analysand’s life. A variety of stops and ways out can be elicited and differentiated.
When the cure is part of the training of the analyst it is expected to last until its « logical end »: what Lacan called the « pass » between the analysand and the analyst.
Sometimes —and should we say often— patients leave their analysis before reaching this stopping point and, at times, unexpectedly.
During the ‘PES’ we will try to qualify the different ways a patient might put a stop to his cure: Acting-out? Act? Error of the analyst in the direction of the treatment? Satisfaction after a therapeutic result?
In the book « Rapid therapeutic effects in psychoanalysis », Jacques-Alain Miller invited his colleagues to consider an analysis from the vantage point of a theory of cycles. The theme of this year’s ‘PES’ concerns issues that have not been treated systematically so far within the Lacanian orientation.
Jacques-Alain Miller and Eric Laurent have accepted to bring a personal contribution to the Seminar.
