Interpretation in Psychoanalysis: Where Ego and Id was, there the Otherness shall be

New psychoanalytic concepts

Abstract

In this paper the author continues to develop his own concept of quantum psychoanalysis, in which he describes in detail the diverse quantum nature of intertransference, different states of which coexist simultaneously in the psychoanalytic process. In the course of the analysis both participants lose their classical identity in order to acquire a new dualmeaning (classical and quantum) identity and develop the ability to remain both a classical Self and a quantum the Otherness. The paper substantiates the need to change the well-known Freud’s formula, which, according to the author, should take the following form: “Where Ego and Id was, there the Other shall be”. The theoretical concept is illustrated by detailed clinical material.
