Neurosis Essay - What Is It?
i think all the neuroses have something in common, and i think think it's an idea that comes from lacon obviously. The neurotic takes the demand of the other for the desire of the other. This clinging to the other's demand at the expense of the other's desire is the basic structure and the and why this happens. So those two things fit together, right? Like taking the demand for the desire and then not letting your castration serve the others juison. It's trying to cheat symbolic castration in some way. Andnd, i think that's the basic dynamic of neurosis. Because the neurotic isn't a psychotic.
