Essays in psychoanalytical psychosomatics

Publication |
2012

Abstract

The word psychosomatic and psychosomatic appears only in the 20th century and is related to the development of medicine. The word psychosomatic, however, confirms the separation of body and soul in our thinking (dualism).

Although the transition point between somatic and psychic remains mystery, psychoanalytic therapies of different schools work with both the psychic meanings of physical problems (where possible) and psychological disorganization.
