Abstract:

Recent discussions about medical discourse seek to demonstrate the apparent and progressive oblivion of the subject as well as the notion of subjectivity in the development of modern medicine – just as much in its foundations in clinical practice as in its basic theoretical framework. As a result, they show that medicine has evolved in the understanding of the disease, while still keeping the experience of suffering as a blind spot. The reaction is to carry out countless attempts to restore subjectivity in the therapeutic process and medical discourse, aiming at an integral and humanized care through what we might call exteriority discourse. Having as reference the analytical psychology of Jung, we analyze how the experience of suffering and its developments are present in clinical practice as expressions of subjectivity in the theoretical and practical fields.
