Paixão e droga como vínculos patológicos: um estudo psicanalítico sobre a relação de dependência entre sujeito e objeto

Abstract

The world where we live in is presenting overwhelming changes and some transformations also occur in the psychoanalytical clinic which appears with new forms of symptoms. When the man is born he needs someone in order to survive. Some of them needs to continue in this situation of dependency on somebody or something else and only this way he can links throughout life. Based on Freud and Lacan´s theories we try to understand this kind of linking that can contribute with significant form the relation of dependency between person and object. First of all we make some reflections about notion of person and object according to Freud and Lacan´s psychoanalysis making a clipping in the context of passion and drug. One distinguishes the object from desire, the object of necessity and the object of dependency. After that, we discuss the question of the pathological bond articulating it with a relation of dependency. We approached still some theorists with the link with a notion of object relation according to Lacan. We understand that under the pathological link one can find the relation of dependency. At last, we talked about the bond which is related between the subject and object in the sense of dependency which must be understood as related to a certain behavior characterized by abuse and excess and a relation between person and object becomes pathology due to intensity and preponderance independent from the characteristics of the subject. The dependence to the chosen object induces the person to the bondage. The person submits to anything in order to avoid loosing something and that is a rule for a person that presents an additive structure. So, the remarkable consequence is the perpetuation of a dependency situation in relation to somebody, denying the basic principle of becoming a subject
