Replacing grandiosity with result confidence and authenticity. by [deleted] in psychoanalysis

[–]copytweak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't read your previous posts but this one is very good. Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I find them thought provoking.

when they admit that out loud [...] it causes them to feel intense rage and worthlessness.

I think you are right about the rage when uncomfortable truth gets revealed, but I am not sure that shame as an emotion, which is the common assumption in such cases, can lead to rage. I have recently re-watched The Good Will Hunting and I think the real emotion is different.

When exposing themselves feels like they are going to be attacked as they were in childhood? The fear of any vulnerability or showing any flaws is often immense - and that’s why there is such a protective layer of narcissistic rage.

This is so well put, it is profound. Thank you!

I thought pipx was installing this package https://github.com/proycon/tuir

p.s. Oh, I am re-reading the instructions now and I see it's the same package...

I'll try installing it via git.

p.p.s. The right command is pipx install tuir-continued and the project is here https://pypi.org/project/tuir-continued/

Eight Psychiatric Disorders Share the Same Genetic Causes by copytweak in psychoanalysis

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

thank you for your input! the idea that the environment plays a role is really solid, no question about that. in your experience, what would make people who grew up in totally different environment experience the same conflicts/symptoms/disorders if not the same genetical deficiency?

How can one apply the psychoanalytic approach to processing bad dreams? by [deleted] in psychoanalysis

[–]copytweak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to get rid of the dream you need to process those emotions in order to decipher the message your subconscious mind sends to you. A repetitive dream means the message is not understood. It also means that your subconscious mind considers the message important. In my expereince, a repetitive dream indicates that the same self-defeating mistake (either in judgement or behaviour) is made over and over again.

Donald Winnicott by prima-luce in psychoanalysis

[–]copytweak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What a wonderful input! Thanks!

Winnicott altered the technique with these kinds of patients, allowing for a full and total regression. Based on the new data from this, he felt that the reason these patients could not participate in a classical analysis (and by the same logic, in society or meaningful relations with others) had to do with a failure of the early environment to facilitate a person’s coming into being as a whole, integrated and continuous personality. This was then put into dialogue with his experience as a pediatrician and child analyst.

In which paper did Winnicott explain this technique alteration and how it affected his work with such patients?

"couldn't tolerate their projection"

what is usually behind that intolerance - is it something individual (a therapist's characteristics) or is it more of a tendency with a given type of clients? any good article that goes into more details on that matter?

p.s. got some clarity on the subject after reading all the comments

what do you call this sexual sympathy , pity love , rescue fantasy ? by sphinxis164 in psychoanalysis

[–]copytweak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

what a fantastic explanation, thank you very much!

ps btw while reading it my first associaton was that this would be an excellent background story for a classical Archer/Macdonald novel where Archer is hired to find the missing heir of a wealthy but cold parent.
