A clinical jerry-rigged for extraterrestrial invasions

Abstract

This article addresses a clinical case in which the subjective urgency in the face of a psychotic break and the possibilities of welcoming the subject in a CAPS are discussed. From the listening and the analytical act, the composition of a clinical “gambiarra” can be instilled in the case, in which the analyst’s improvisation and the position of not knowing, as object a, gives way to a “knowing how to turn around” in the face of the unusualness of psychosis. This means that in face of the invention of the so-called schizophrenic, of the creation of resources in the face of traumatism, the analyst forges a relationship that can bind to support the fragmented body of the psychotic, giving it an address so that the delusion makes sense. The ex-sisting of the subject, supported by the analyst in his arrangement, is able to deprive the insatiable search of the algorithm that responds to the Other Internet and provokes meanings in his existence, producing his own place.
