==Sigmund 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>
==Jacques Lacan==
[[Lacan]]'s answer is that [[psychoanalytic treatment]] is a [[progress|logical process]] with a beginning and an end-point, designated as the "[[end of analysis]]".
===Aim===
The [[end of analysis|''end'' of analysis]] must be distinguished from the ''[[End of analysis|aim]]'' of [[psychoanalytic treatment]].
Lacan conceives The [[end of this end-point in various waysanalysis|aim]] of [[treatment]] is to lead the [[analysand]] to articulate the '''[[truth]]''' [[about]] his or her [[desire]].
1. In the early 1950sWhile not all [[treatment|analyses]] are carried through to their [[progress|conclusion]], the end of anlaysis is described any [[treatment|analysis]] -- however incomplete -- may be regarded as "the advent of a true speech and the realization by the subject of his history."<ref>E 88</ref>(See successful when it achieves this [[Speechend of analysis|aim]]).
"The subject ... begins question of the [[end of analysis by speaking about himslef without speaking to you, ]] 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 by speaking to you without speaking about himself. When he can speak to you about himself, not the [[treatment]] has reached its [[logical]] [[End of analysis will be over."<ref> Ec 373, n|end-point]]. 1</ref>
The end ===Definition===[[Lacan]] conceives of this [[End of analysis is also described as coming to terms with one's own mortality|end-point]] in various ways.<ref>E 104-5</ref>
2:1. In 1960 the early 1950s, [[Lacan ]] describes the [[end of analysis ]] as "the advent of a state [[true]] [[speech]] and the realization by the [[subject]] of anxiety and abandonmenthis [[history]]" -- that is, and copares it as coming to the [[helplessnessterms]] with one's own [[death|mortality]] of the human infant.<ref>{{E}} p. 88</ref>
3:<blockquote>"The [[subject]] .. In 1964 . begins the analysis by [[speaking]] about himself without speaking to you, or by speaking to you without speaking about himself. When he describes it as the point when the analysand has "traversed can [[speak]] to you about himself, the radical fantasyanalysis will be over."<ref>S11{{Ec}} p. 373, 273n. 1</ref> (See [[Fantasy]])</blockquote>
4:2. In the last decade of his teaching1960, he [[Lacan]] describes the [[end of analysis ]] as "identification with the ''sinthome''a [[state]] of [[anxiety]] and [[anxiety|abandonment]] -- that is, and as "knowing what to do with the ''sinthome'. (See ''a state of [[Sinthomehelplessness]]'').
Common to all these formulations is the idea that :3. In 1964, [[Lacan]] describes the [[end of analysis involves a change in ]] as the subjective position of point when the analysand (the analysand's "[[subjective destitutionanalysand]]"), and a corresponding change in traverses the position of the analyst (the loss of being radical [[Frfantasy]]. ''désêtre''] of the analyst, the fall of the analyst from the position of the subect-supposed-to-know)"<ref>{{S11}} p. 273</ref>
at :4. In the final decade of his teaching, [[Lacan]] describes the [[end of the analysis, ]] as an "[[identification]] with the analyst is reduced to a mere surplus, a pure ''objet petit a[[sinthome]]'', the cause of the analysand's desire."
====Position of Analysand and Analyst====
In general, the [[end of analysis]] involves two fundamental changes in the respective [[discourse|subjective positions]] of
* the [[analysand]] -- the "[[subjective destitution]]" of the [[analysand]], and
Since Lacan argues that all psychoanalysts should have experienced * the process [[analyst]] -- the "[[loss of analytic treatment form beginning to end, the end being]]" ([[French]]: ''[[désêtre]]'') of analysis is also the passage from analysand to [[analyst]].
'The [[analyst]] is reduced -- from the true termination [[discourse|position]] of an analysis" is therefore no more and no less than that which "prepares you the [[subject-supposed-to-know]] -- to become ann analysta mere [[surplus]], a [[objet petit a]], the [[cause]] of the [[analysand]]'s [[desire]]."<ref>S7 303</ref>
====Passage from Analysand to Analyst====
For [[Lacan]], the [[end of analysis]] is also the passage from [[analysand]] to [[analyst]] -- for all [[psychoanalysts]] must undergo [[analytic treatment]] from beginning to end before [[being]] allowed to [[practice]] as [[analysts]].
In 1967 Since [[Lacan introduced ]] argues that all [[psychoanalysts]] should have experienced the procedure [[process]] of the [[Passanalytic treatment]] as a means of testifying from beginning to end, the [[end of one's analysis]] is also the passage from [[analysand]] to [[analyst]].
By means <blockquote>"The true termination of this procedure, Lacan hoped an analysis" is therefore no more and no less than that which "prepares you to avoid the dangers of regarding the end of analysis as a quasi-mystical, ineffable experiencebecome an analyst."<ref>{{S7}} p. 303</ref></blockquote>
Such a view is antithetical to psychoanalysi, which is all about putting things into words===Misconceptions=======Identification with the Analyst====[[Lacan]] criticizes those [[psychoanalysts]] who describe the [[end of analysis]] in terms of [[identification]] with the [[analyst]].
For [[Lacan]], it is not only possible, but necessary to go beyond [[identification]], for otherwise it is not [[psychoanalysis]] but [[suggestion]] -- which is the antithesis of [[psychoanalysis]].
====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]].
Lacan criticizes those psychoanalysts who have seen Although [[analytic treatment]] does involve the end [[resolution]] of analysis in terms of identification 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:
54* 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> ==See Also=={{See}}* [[Analysand]]* [[Analyst]]||* [[Fantasy]]* [[Sinthome]]||* [[Speech]]* [[Subject]]||* [[Symptom]]* [[Transference]]{{Also}} ==References==<div style="font-size:11px" class="references-small"><references/></div>[[Category:Psychoanalysis]][[Category:Jacques Lacan]][[Category:Dictionary]][[Category:Treatment]][[Category:Concepts]][[Category:Terms]]{{OK}} __NOTOC__
