In this article, we approach the implications of a voracious superego for anorexia during adolescence through lacanian psychoanalysis. For this, we highlight adolescence as a milestone in the process of subjectivation, which calls for another position in relation to sexuality and desire. Anorexia can appear as a way of positioning the subject in the face of the sexual issue. In this case, the superego's voice summoned as a response to the adolescent dilemma leads the subject to a trap, in which the joy is the result of renunciation and whose high price is seen in a body devoured by the voracity and tyranny of the superego.

Palabras llave : anorexia; adolescence; superego; body; joy.
