From the clinical case of a rural inhabitant that migrates to an urban centre, we highlight the experience of inadequacy caused by the feeling of exile. It is considered that the identification processes do not manifest only with people but also with the environment where one lives. A correlation is established between the idealised relationship the patient had with their "motherland" with the feeling of exclusion, characteristic of the loss of oedipal illusion. Using "country songs", we've tried to investigate how the anxiety generated by the loss of identity caused somatisation and suffering. Overcoming this state occurred with the development of the ability to think and symbolise, assigning psychic meanings to affective experiences.

Palabras clave : feelings of inadequacy; alienation; oedipal illusion; psychosomatic; psoriasis; identity.
