Description

Explore the complex relationship between the mind and the self in The Mind Object: Precocity and Pathology of Self-sufficiency. This work examines how an individual might relate to their own mind as an object, potentially depending on it to the exclusion of other objects. It investigates the psychological phenomenon where a person may idealize, fear, or hate their mental functions. Based on the theories of Winnicott, this book explores how early environmental failures can lead an individual to turn away from the body and its physical needs. By establishing mental functioning as a thing in itself, a person may strive for the perfection of the mind while sacrificing the truth of the body. This text provides a deep look into the concept of the mind-psyche and how mental self-sufficiency develops in response to external circumstances. It is a significant resource for those studying the psychological development of the self and the impact of environmental factors on mental functioning.
