Depression, Melancholy, Grief, Self Esteem, strategy fails



If Freud was compared to Melancholy Mourning, in his article of the same title dated 1915, it is because the melancholy features of the psychic as bereavement, a deep and painful depression. As for the depression and mourning, the subject suffered a suspension of desire, loss of ability to love others and ourselves. But what adds to the lack of desire characterized by depression and pain of loss Mourning, is wistful for the patient, a decrease of strong self-esteem that manifests itself in the self-blame and self-abuse.

As for Mourning, the melancholic has suffered a loss (its symptoms are in fact identical). If you realize that this is a lost object of desire or love, cannot clearly identify what has been lost and the patient, either, cannot grasp clearly what has been lost. Real or abstract ideal, a job, a home, a loved one? ...

This loss makes the heart bleed poets: The melancholy is like a lost cat is believed to have recovered. Leo Ferre sang Melancholy

The loss of the object is not aware, unlike Mourning, where nothing regarding the lost person is unconscious.

What emerges from statements made by patients is a loss on their ego. A me that they feel is morally weakened and they disapprove. We observe in their patients, how, part of me is opposed to the other, it concerns a tight and as it takes as an object. His critics are not convinced that at the height of a situation, at best, they use avoidance strategies for fear of failure, at worst, implement a strategy of failure buttress the idea If not it continues to be basically two himself.
