All technological transformation invites us to reflect on our ways of understanding social phenomena and their impacts on the subjects. Today we have at our disposal countless machines that respond to human needs and yet with the apparent facilities provided by cyberculture, it seems that we remain on the alert, waiting for the next information and news, always waiting for the next urgency that will arise in our screen. Our existential experience of malaise in the cyberculture process is gaining new contours. The immersive hyperconnection in the digital seems to produce a feeling of instantaneity that prevents us from reflection and the experience of leisure. Questions about the understanding of the subjective effects that this way of life entail for humanity begin to arouse the interest of various fields of knowledge. Therefore, taking the psychoanalytic notion of malaise, this theoretical-bibliographic study aims to provide insights into the phenomenon of digital hyperacceleration, by promoting a dialogue between psychoanalysis and studies on contemporaneity and leisure. In this context, psychoanalysis, by placing itself as a space of experience that produces effects of signification, would allow the subject to occupy a position beyond his or her place in a hyperaccelerated society, seeming, in this way, to provide some clues to think on the leisure experience in cyberculture and its respective importance.

Keywords : Psychoanalysis; cyberculture; digital; leisure.
