Abstract

WEYLER, Audrey Rossi  and  FERNANDES, Maria Inês Assumpção. The ways of residence projects for former-psyquiatric pacients. Vínculo [online]. 2005, vol.2, n.2, pp.80-88. ISSN 1806-2490.

One might say that one of the challenges in nowadays Social Psychology is a critical reflection on Mental Health public policies and their effects on the subjectivity of groups and individuals involved in them. Discussions that have been held on the construction of some other social places for insanity have attained great importance during the last few decades; also they have influenced the adoption of certain methods in substitution to psychiatric hospitalization. This work intends to deepen discussions on those residence projects by means of a critical analysis of the developments going from the asylum situation to those residences, taking into acount the residence’s specific characteristics. It’s possible to highlight two main dimensions that are superimposed on the residences. In the one hand, that are institutional places supported by a system of reference in the Mental Health services range. On the other hand, that are all the places normally developped in a house based on representations resulted from family relationships. This project proposes itself as a change trigger, among several facts, since the residents can occupy different places that normally devellopped in the Mental Health institutions.

Keywords : Mental health; Psyquiatric’s reform; Phychoanalysis; Instituitions.
