Abstract

OKUMURA, Iris Miyake  and  DORO, Maribel Pelaez. Plots of the unconscious: psychotic outbreak by analytic approach. Psicol. hosp. (São Paulo) [online]. 2019, vol.17, n.1, pp. 34-54. ISSN 2175-3547.

Hematological treatment can involve a long and invasive process, such as bone marrow transplantation. Although being proposed with curative intentions, clinical intercurrences cause impacts on the individual’s physical, psychological and emotional health. This article is a professional experience report and had the objective to describe the psychogenesis of a psychotic outbreak episode, whose manifested contents were analyzed through the theoretical background of Analytical Psychology. Faced with situations that extrapolated the patient's resignification capacity, unconscious contents perhaps emerged in search of a reintegration of the lost symbolic understanding. In a unique and particular way of being, experienced conflicts with belligerent content about beliefs and values arising from their psyche and an inhospitable socio-cultural context, which hindered the process of personal development. Psychological intervention enabled the integration of split conscious and unconscious aspects, mainly in relation with the feminine (anima) and the religious doctrine.

Keywords : Psychology clinical; Psychotic disorders; Bone marrow transplantation.
