This article discusses, in the face of happiness demands of those arriving at an analyst, the repetition problem and its ethical implications according to psychoanalysis. It starts from the psychoanalytical premiss of the intrinsic human discontent, in so far as instead of the anonymous programme of instincts, man is a linguistic being crossed by the misunderstandings of speech, singular asymmetric desires, and partial satisfactions. In this context, repetition is taken from its Freudian origins beyond the pleasure principle, through to Lacan's main contributions, especially in his use of two physical Aristotelic notions: tykhe and automaton. Moreover, happiness demand is confronted with one's destiny towards repetition of the faulty encounter, as if by chance, with the real within the pulsion, which has a beautiful literarily illustration by Acaso, an Álvaro de Campos' poem. Not engaging with the happiness encounter of pleasure within goods, such as other therapies offering normative recipes for adaptation, psychoanalysis's ethics is concerned with the ex-sistence of the subject fixated within a symptomatic position of jouissance, whose treatment concentrate on the ways of say-well the symptom, which results in the conquest of a subjective position that mobilises and includes the unconscious desire without such high-suffering cost.

Palabras clave : psychoanalysis; ethics; repetition; happiness; desire.
