Close encounters of a new kind in the psychoanalytic clinic. A changing affective semantic field requiring a psycho-socio-analytic approach

This reflection is prompted by the unexpected care needs that have become more frequent in recent years. The relevant clinical data is an ever-widening crisis of the word. As a psychoanalyst, I am referring to the crisis of the natural capacity to come to the word, to give language to what one feels.In the field of the psychotherapeutic relationship, there is a constant exposure, a certain affective lability, made up of sudden extreme emotional oscillations. All this is accompanied by the denial of any form of definition in the shifting boundaries between proprioception, interoception and esteroception. The demand for care itself is in constant crisis and at the same time charged with high expectations. There are states of anxiety and falls into anxious abysses in which imagination and dreams are dissociated in order to be protected from their frightening and delirious burden.The proposal concerns the search for an agreement between theory and psychoanalytic technique that can be found in an affective semantic field capable of containing and developing those elements of external noise and social media invasion in order to refine the setting and neutralize the obstacles to the tuning of the transformative therapeutic relationship.
