Descrição
Resumo:Based on a review of the literature as a research method, this paper aims to point out the paths traditionally traveled to deal with the problematic of drug consumption - so harmful and present today - as well as the paths that can be explored from psychoanalysis. We will analyze the terms commonly related to drug consumption, so that we can distinguish the characteristics that lead psychoanalysts to assume the term toxicomania and not any other, emphasizing the subject-drug relationship. We will treat their relationship with clinical structures - neurosis, psychosis and perversion - with the malaise highlighted by Freud and with the Lacanian concept of jouissance, aiming to expose the psychoanalytic reading of toxicomania. Based on the results of the research, we conclude that psychoanalysis can contribute in an incisive way to the treatment of drug addicts, since this reference sees beyond the drug addict, a subject, and proposes to operate with him.
