The Dual Practice of Psychoanalysis

Within Marxism there is theory and then there's practice and the theory really pushes you to practice it's just sort of like you know you will be looked down on by Marxists if you call yourself a Marxist and never engage at all in any practice and just sort of obsess over theory right. So what do you think about that sort of duality? Is it fair to say that psychoanalysis does have a practice in a way that other theories generally don't have but Marxism doesYeah I guess it does but I mean the problem is that a lot of people that are psycho analytic theorists are not practicing analysts so then you know what does it say about their practice.
