[Disordered relationships in psychoses and forms of relationships in their psychotherapy].

In psychosis the relationship between the patient and the world is deeply altered because the self-absorbment of the patient within the influence of his bad intrapsychic objects. The psychotherapy is possible through the establishment of a therapeutic symbiosis, where parts of the ill personality are introjected by the psychotherapist and parts of his personality are adopted by the patient, as shown by the fact that the dreams, the unconscious fantasies, and the efforts of the therapist reflect the anxieties of the patient, whereas the patient's dreams are structured by the inner movements of the psychotherapist, as if there were a partially shared identity between them both.
