==Psychoanalytic TreatmentSigmund Freud==In ''[[Analysis Terminable and Interminable]]'', [[Freud]] asks:<blockquote>"Is there such a [[thing ]] as a [[natural ]] end to an analysis?"<ref>{{F}} ''[[Sigmund Freud:Bibliography|Analysis Terminable and Interminable]]''. , 1937. [[SE]] XXIII p.219</ref></blockquote>
===Aim of Psychoanalytic Treatment=Jacques Lacan==The [[end of analysisLacan]]'s answer is that [[psychoanalytic treatment]] is a [[progress|''end'' of analysislogical process]] must be distinguished from with a beginning and an end-point, designated as the "[[end of analysis|''aim'' of psychoanalytic treatment]]".
===Aim===The [[end of analysis|aim ''end'' of psychoanalytic treatmentanalysis]] is to lead must be distinguished from the ''[[analysandEnd of analysis|aim]] to articulate the '' of [[truth]] about his [[desirepsychoanalytic treatment]].
:<blockquote>1. In the early 1950s, [[Lacan]] describes the [[end of analysis]] as "The the advent of a [[true]] [[subjectspeech]] ... begins and the analysis realization by speaking about himself without speaking to youthe [[subject]] of his [[history]]" -- that is, or by speaking as coming to you without speaking about himself. When he can speak to you about himself, the analysis will be over[[terms]] with one's own [[death|mortality]]."<ref>{{EcE}} p.373, n. 188</ref></blockquote>
:2. In 1960, <blockquote>"The [[Lacansubject]] describes ... begins the [[end of analysis]] as a state of by [[anxietyspeaking]] and about himself without speaking to you, or by speaking to you without speaking about himself. When he can [[anxiety|abandonmentspeak]] -- that isto you about himself, the analysis will be over."<ref>{{Ec}} p. 373, as a state of [[helplessness]]n.1</ref></blockquote>
:2. In 1960, [[Lacan]] describes the [[end of analysis]] as a [[state]] of [[anxiety]] and [[anxiety|abandonment]] -- that is, as a state of [[helplessness]]. :3. In 1964, [[Lacan]] describes the [[end of analysis]] as the point when the [[analysand]] "traverses the radical [[fantasy]]."<ref>{{S11}} p.273</ref>
:4. In the final decade of his teaching, [[Lacan]] describes the [[end of analysis]] as an "[[identification]] with the ''[[sinthome]]''."
===Subjective Destitution=Position of Analysand and Analyst====In general, the [[end of analysis]] involves two fundamental changes in the respective [[discourse|subjective positions]] of
* the [[analysandanalyst]] -- the "[[subjective destitutionloss of being]]" ([[French]]: ''[[désêtre]]'') of the [[analysandanalyst]].
<blockquote>"The true termination of an analysis" is therefore no more and no less than that which "prepares you to become an analyst."<ref>{{S7}} p. 303</ref></blockquote>
===Misconceptions===
[[Lacan]] also criticizes those [[psychoanalysts]] who describe the [[end of analysis]] in terms of "liquidation" of the [[transference]].
For [[Lacan]], this erroneous view is based on a misunderstanding of [[transference]] -- as a kind of [[illusion ]] which can be transcended -- which overlooks the [[symbolic]] [[nature ]] of [[transference]] -- as an essential [[structure]] of [[speech]].
Although [[analytic treatment]] does involve the [[resolution ]] of the [[particular ]] ''[[transference|transference relationship]]'' established with the [[analyst]], [[transference]] itself still subsists after the [[end of analysis]].
====Other Misconceptions====
The [[end of analysis]] does not involve:
* the strengthening the [[ego]]* the [[adaptation ]] to [[reality]]* the [[disappearance ]] of the [[symptom]]* the [[cure ]] of an underlying disease (e.g.''[[neurosis]]'')
For [[Lacan]], [[analysis]] is not essentially a [[treatment|therapeutic process ]] but rather a [[search ]] for [[truth]] -- and the [[truth]] is not always beneficial.<ref>{{S17}} p.122</ref>
