Sample text
He admitted this and now said that in the dream the lesions seemed to be a consequence of cancer. He spoke of his aged father and the fear of his death. Now he protected my by placing the problem with an aged father. We could say that the patient projects into the analyst parts of himself and his internal objects, as indeed he does. He presents two models; the one copes impeccably, the other is broken down. In the course of such projection, he affects me. In the session I found that I was lured into having experiences in both directions.
In part, I do share, or am infected, by the child’s symptoms, idealization or persecutory fear, in which the depressive position mother gets lost. This has to be recovered so that I and also the patient can be helped to realize that in assailing the mother or father with these pressures, including guilt (putting it all on Freud’s shoulders), the child’s need to be protected and cared for gets lost. In part the patient projects anxieties about, and rivalrous triumph over, unable parents; he also fears an analyst triumphant over a patient unable to cope with feeling ill or abandoned.
When we speak of a mother giving the baby the nipple, we do not consider a simple nipple-mouth relationship; we recognize that the baby takes in a penumbra of experience. There is always something in excess of the actual process. We see reported: ‘The patient said…and the analyst interpreted’, yet the complexities are enormous. To address the question of how the analyst features in the internal world of the patient, we need not only to move into the paranoid/schizoid internal world of the patient; we also require some flexibility in tolerating and working through the tensions between our own conscious and unconscious impulses and feelings toward the patient.
