==Various formulations=={{Top}}fin d'[[Lacananalyse]] conceives of the [[end of analysis]] in various ways.{{Bottom}}
:1. ==Sigmund Freud==In the early 1950s, ''[[LacanAnalysis Terminable and Interminable]] describes the '', [[end of analysisFreud]] as asks:<blockquote>"the advent of Is there such a true [[speechthing]] and the realization by the as a [[subjectnatural]] of his end to an analysis?"<ref>{{F}} ''[[historySigmund Freud:Bibliography|Analysis Terminable and Interminable]]" -- that is'', as coming to terms with one's own 1937.

:<blockquote>"The ==Jacques Lacan==[[Lacan]]'s answer is that [[psychoanalytic treatment]] is a [[subjectprogress|logical process]] ... begins the analysis by speaking about himself without speaking to you, or by speaking to you without speaking about himself. When he can speak to you about himselfwith a beginning and an end-point, designated as the "[[end of analysis will be over.]]"<ref>{{Ec}} p.373, n. 1</ref></blockquote>
:2. In 1960, [[Lacan]] describes the ===Aim===The [[end of analysis]] as a state |''end'' of [[anxietyanalysis]] and must be distinguished from the ''[[anxietyEnd of analysis|abandonmentaim]] -- that is, as a state '' of [[helplessnesspsychoanalytic treatment]].
:3. In 1964, The [[Lacanend of analysis|aim]] describes the of [[end of analysistreatment]] as the point when is to lead the [[analysand]] "traverses to articulate the radical '''[[fantasytruth]]''' [[about]] his or her [[desire]]."<ref>{{S11}} p.273</ref>
While not all [[treatment|analyses]] are carried through to their [[progress|conclusion]], any [[treatment|analysis]] -- however incomplete -- may be regarded as successful when it achieves this [[end of analysis|aim]].  The question of the [[end of analysis]] is therefore something more than whether a [[treatment|course]] of [[treatment|analytic treatment]] has or has not achieved its aim; it is a question of whether or not the [[treatment]] has reached its [[logical]] [[End of analysis|end-point]]. ===Definition===[[Lacan]] conceives of this [[End of analysis|end-point]] in various ways. :41. In the final decade of his teachingearly 1950s, [[Lacan]] describes the [[end of analysis]] as an "the advent of a [[identificationtrue]] [[speech]] and the realization by the [[subject]] of his [[history]]" -- that is, as coming to [[terms]] with the 'one's own [[sinthomedeath|mortality]]''."<ref>{{E}} p. 88</ref>
==Subjective Destitution==:<blockquote>"The [[subject]] ... begins the analysis by [[speaking]] about himself without speaking to you, or by speaking to you without speaking about himself. When he can [[speak]] to you about himself, the analysis will be over."<ref>{{Ec}} p. 373, n. 1</ref></blockquote>
The :2. In 1960, [[Lacan]] describes the [[end of analysis]] involves two fundamental changes in the respective subjective positions as a [[state]] of [[anxiety]] and [[anxiety|abandonment]] -- that is, as a state of [[helplessness]].

The [[analyst]] is reduced -- from the position ====Position of Analysand and Analyst====In general, the [[subject-supposed-to-know]] -- to a mere [[surplus]], a [[objet petit aend of analysis]], involves two fundamental changes in the respective [[causediscourse|subjective positions]] of the [[analysand]]'s [[desire]].
* the [[analysand]] -- the "[[subjective destitution]]" of the [[analysand]], and
==Passage from Analysand to Analyst==* the [[analyst]] -- the "[[loss of being]]" ([[French]]: ''[[désêtre]]'') of the [[analyst]].

Since ====Passage from Analysand to Analyst====For [[Lacan]] argues that , the [[end of analysis]] is also the passage from [[analysand]] to [[analyst]] -- for all [[psychoanalysts]] should have experienced the process of must undergo [[analytic treatment]] from beginning to end, the before [[end of analysisbeing]] is also the passage from allowed to [[analysandpractice]] to as [[analystanalysts]].
<blockquote>"The true termination Since [[Lacan]] argues that all [[psychoanalysts]] should have experienced the [[process]] of [[analytic treatment]] from beginning to end, the [[end of an analysis" ]] is therefore no more and no less than that which "prepares you also the passage from [[analysand]] to become an [[analyst]]."<ref>{{S7}} p.303</ref></blockquote>

===Misconceptions===
 
====Identification with the Analyst====
 
[[Lacan]] criticizes those [[psychoanalysts]] who describe the [[end of analysis]] in terms of [[identification]] with the [[analyst]].
====Transference====
 
[[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]]'')
The For [[Lacan]], [[end of analysis]] does is not involve:essentially a [[treatment|therapeutic process]] but rather a [[search]] for [[truth]] -- and the [[truth]] is not always beneficial.<ref>{{S17}} p. 122</ref> ==See Also=={{See}}* [[Analysand]]* [[Analyst]]||* [[Fantasy]]* [[Sinthome]]||* [[Speech]]* [[Subject]]||* [[Symptom]]* [[Transference]]{{Also}}
