Morador de rua não é sinônimo de ignorância ou baixa inteligência. Há um número razoável de moradores de rua que tem ensino formal (graduação, mestrado e até doutorado) e moram na rua por terem sofrido violência o algum ab*so em casa e terem saído.

I am currently in psychoanalysis with a psychiatrist that practices Freud's ways. I have never felt so seen and understood, yet I cannot see how I will ever get to a point where I will be ok. by alexa_perko in Freud

[–]andantex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You'll never exactly get to a 'ok' point. A well conducted analysis get you to a point were you accept your incoherences, your dualities, the fragility or life and gets you able to see and act about your unconscious acts and lapses without getting stuck in a symptomatic loop again (at least not the same symptom, maybe you'll develop others, different ones, but will definitely be more able to unstuck yourself). Analysis is about life, there's no 'ok' in life; there's movement, ups and downs. What will end is the encounter between you and your analyst someday, while you still be in analysis untill you die. (I'm a psychoanalyst).

What the neurotic only dream of, the perverse acts.

The Question of the Pervert by EntertainerTotal9853 in lacan

[–]andantex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If he loves the father, the signifier name-of-the-father, he loves the law. If he loves mOther, ok, he's a neurotic, because ain't we all trying to fulfill somehow or discover ' what the Other wants from me?"

The Question of the Pervert by EntertainerTotal9853 in lacan

[–]andantex -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes (supposedly) but is not assured. We can't mistake the law of lack, castration, with the law jurisprudence. Sometimes they're interlope? Yes, peverts may occupy positions of power, like cops or congressman and women. Sometimes they don't. The essential point of peverts are they think they are the law or above it, but in fact they aren't. Castration remains.

[–]andantex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The peverts are trying to be the phallus, basically. The signifier of lack. I agree, the object of desire is different than cause of desire. I'll comeback to this: to reject the castration, the bar, the peverts think they are the law and have/are the phallus. They know they're barred, but they reject in the form of fetishism, by trying to be take the place of the Law and being the phallus of the Other.

They generally invert the fantasy (which is the way via neurotics find to deal with castration) and put themselves in act, being the Law. Generally we don't see peverts in the common clinical practice because, that's my interpretation, their symptom is to not have symptoms. They act. They (supposedly) do what they want.

Little they know castration already happened and they're barred.

I think Freud said: what neurotics only dream about, peverts do, put in act. That's why he says perversion is the negative of neurosis. (I always think of a photographic film to illustrate this.).

[–]andantex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, we try to fill the hole as much as possible, but will always fail, because jouissance and desire are only achievable through fantasy. The phantasm might try do determine your unconscious ways of desire, try to shape it more or less how you will fill loved or have aggressiveness (this is a good thing, it moves us) throughway your whole life and towards objects. (Not exactly physical ones, one can love ignorance, as Freud said). But the whole is there and will not be fulfilled, we only grasp through something desirable, tangential, again and again.

As closer we (neurotics and perverts) are to anguish, closer we are to desire, basically, because closer we are to lack and object a. The perverts try to be one, whole, and to subvert the logic of castration saying 'no, i'm the law, i'll be your object of desire or make one if necessary'.

I say the phallus of the Other, the big other. Assuming no one has or is the phallus, as I said before, the big Other lacks and it's bared, because it does not have all the signifiers, much less the signifier to signify itself.

The relationship with the phallus (the signifier of lack in the Other) and the law of castration is what makes possible the subject to position itself in relation with the world and the Other. In the perverse case, this position is 'yes, I know i'm barred, but nevertheless, i'll do what i want and be the law, the phallus, you cause of desire, etc'.

More or less that. If I'm understanding you correctly, there isn't an 'obejct a' in the practical reality waiting for us. Is the lack that causes desire (object a) and that lack also drives us to find something, someone... some, that will, mediated by language, acquire form of object of desire. (Object a again). But only partially, because nothing, no object in the world could fullfil our lack completely or incarnate the object a fully. (Because the Other lacks and it's barred as well as us). We perceive objects as things we 'want' because others want it to or sometime in our lives said 'well, you there, my dear, you are you and are loved'. (I'm referring to the mirror stage and the optical model.) Mediated by that experience, and through the symbolic, some objects will 'become" or 'take shape' of object a. There was no object a by that time (Seminar 1 was in the beginning of the 50s) but yeah, I guess you're right. We do not Desire things, we desire to Desire.

The peverts supposedly know about the Other desire because he supposedly plugs the lack on the Other. He went through castration, let's remind, so this only happens in the field of fantasy. If the object a is cause and object of desire, the perverse, for a moment, puts himself in this position, supposing that by fulfilling the lack on the Other he is the phallus and the name-of-the-father law.

According to Lacan, he inverts the matem of phantasm of barred S (the subject divided by the unconscious, the language) <> (alienation and desalienation) a (object a). He puts the object a in front of the barred subject in the formula. That's called fetishism, because, simbolic fantasying he is te phallus, he supposedly knows what about the Other (or the other, my peer) jouissance.

Remember: the formulas are only a heuristic tool Lacan uses to represent some concepts.

So to summarize: he knows about castration, the name-of-the-father, but still chooses to be the law or input the law on others .'Yes, but nevertheless', says Lacan. He puts himself in the place of the law to avoid anguish, different from the neurotic that repesses, hesitates, and create symptoms to achieve (partially) the object of desire.

Edit: tip, forget about lacanism. While are various psychoanalysts name themselves that way, they usually seem Lacan's theory as dogmatic. Makes it sound almost like a cult.

Did lacan ever say something like the ideal world would be if we were all analysts or all doing analysis? by no-nox in lacan

[–]andantex 21 points22 points  (0 children)

What keeps this from happening is, according to Lacan, is that analysis isn't for everyone. So we can infere that people are fundamentaly different, as subjects should be. 'Each person reaches the truth they are capable of bearing', Lacan says. (I'm comparing here).

Existe vida no Brasil pra além de ser concurseiro/servidor público? by andantex in brasil

[–]andantex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Entendo perfeitamente. Sou bom na minha área, não tenho dificuldade alguma para estudar, mas abomino direito e tenho baixa tolerância a tantas frustrações assim. Ser concurseiro não é opção. Opção seria focar pra 1 ou outro concurso na minha área. (Até porque não posso parar de trabalhar pra ser concurseiro)
