COPPUS, Alinne Nogueira Silva. What function does the body have in anorexia and bulimia that takes place in the neurosis clinic?. Reverso [online]. 2011, vol.33, n.61, pp. 15-19. ISSN 0102-7395.

The psychoanalyst makes the body, which talks, an instrument in his/her practice. The body materializes the desire and the enjoyment of the subject who is found in the neurosis field. We choose the anorexia and bulimia as a resource which illustrates, as far as the psychoanalytic practice is concerned, the sticking points that having a body can represent to the subject. Having it in mind, we will point out the effects of the subject's fixation in a certain way of drive satisfaction - in this case, the oral kind - and also discuss the place this symptom has in the subject's phantasmagorical plot. These symptoms show us the dimension that the image can have in the subject's libidinal dynamics.

Palabras clave : Anorexia; Bulimia; Body; Image.
