Example text
Dora, however, in some measure wanted to understand and be understood. While inhibited, she also wanted to lift the veil of secrecy within the family. Like Pandora, she struggled with keeping the lid on the bejewelled box, despite her thoughtful curiosity and her perception of the deception and hypocrisy of her parents, the Ks, and Viennese society. Dora’s reluctance to be treated by Freud had been preceded by her refusal to see new doctors. For Freud this meant that she was afraid that each doctor would uncover her secrets.
With analytic work, we add meaning and affect to it, making it into a memory. When memories remain in the unconscious and it is impossible for us to ‘remember’ them, we say that they are forgotten. Memories present diverse degrees of resistance to becoming conscious.

This is to say that, although we use a language that runs through time and space because its protagonists are words, on the other hand, we also intercalate memories from the two organizations, and thus operate in function of the synchronicity of their presentation. We interpret Freud’s words when he tells us that there is no transference in the actual neurosis, in the sense of the transference that we find in the analysis of the psychoneuroses. They are actual transferences, both non-temporal and non-spatial, that are manifested especially in the somatic terrain in neuro-vegetative-cellularhumoral terms.
