O tratamento dado aos impasses ante o saber pela psicanálise a partir da tríade inibição, sintoma e angústia

Abstract

The present research is the result of the experience as a psychoanalysis practitioner in a university extension project and in a private practice, in which complaints about the difficulty in carrying out academic activities regularly appeared as intellectual inhibition (Santiago, 2005). In psychological and psychiatric clinical practices, these manifestations can be addressed by attention deficit disorder with implications that generate learning difficulties. Scientific knowledge promotes solutions to deal with such difficulties without examining the subjective position of the complainant. The analytical discourse starts from the subject's enigma to promote the desire to know about his symptom. It is considered that an unconscious know precedes and can affect the encounter with school/academic knowledge, generating impasses to which the subject would respond by inhibitions, symptoms and anguish. In view of the above, the question arises: what is the treatment given by psychoanalysis to the impasses with know, manifested by the inhibition incident in intellectual activities, in times of increasing medicalization? As a general objective, this research intends to examine the treatment given by psychoanalysis to the impasses in the face of know incidents in intellectual activities from the clinical manifestations of inhibition, symptom and anguish. The specific objectives are: to examine the different treatment conceptions given to impasses in the face of know by Jacques Lacan's discourse theory; to analyze the role of inhibition as a response to the impasse with know and its articulation with the symptom and anguish as a production of a singular know of the subject; to examine the relationship between know and jouissance as if it points to the unwriteable of non-sexual intercourse, and anguish. The research is carried out from questions that emerged spontaneously and contingently from professional practice and were linked to psychoanalytic theory. The construction of a clinical case was chosen based on the research objectives. It is expected that the dialogue with psychoanalysis can contribute to the approach of the subjects' impasses in the face of know in times of medicalization.
