| Key findings | The author reports that LSD-25 aided psychotherapy in 3 patients across 5 sessions by promoting regression that brings internal conflicts into the transference, sparing parts of the ego that can observe and analyze the material, and preserving memory so experiences can be analyzed afterward. The author contends the method is only fully useful in the hands of a psychoanalyst physician. |
Abstract
São relatados os resultados de 5 experiências realizadas em 3 pacientes com LSD 25, sendo salientadas as propriedades terapêuticas dêste medicamento como auxiliar da psicoterapia. Entre outras, são ressaltadas como principais qualidades: a) ação regressiva sôbre o ego que facilita o aparecimento, sob forte carga afetiva, dos conflitos internos na transferência; b) ação não uniforme sôbre o ego, poupando umas partes que, assim, não só assistem, mas podem, durante a experiência, analisar o material surgido; c) conservação da memória que permite em dias ulteriores e fora da ação lisérgica, a análise das vivências ocorridas na experiência. O método só terá tôda sua utilidade, na opinião do autor, em mãos de médico psicanalista capacitado a lidar com material derivado do inconsciente.
