{{Top}}hallucinations|hallucination{{Bottom}}
==Psychiatric Definition==
In this distinction, [[Lacan]] follows [[Freud]]'s analysis of [[Schreber]]'s [[hallucination]]s.
<blockquote>"It was incorrect to say that the perception which suppressed internally is projected outwards; the truth is rather, as we now see, that what was abolished internally returns from without.<ref>[[Freud|Freud, Sigmund]]. 1911c. [[SE ]] XII. p.71</ref></blockquote>
==Structure of Desire==
While [[hallucination]]s are most commonly associated with [[psychosis]], there is another sense in which they play an important part in the [[structure]] of [[desire]] in all [[subject]]s.
[[Freud]] argues that "[t]he first wishing seems to have been a hallucinatory cathecting of the memory of satisfaction."<ref>[[Freud|Freud, Sigmund]]. 1900a. [[SE ]] V. p.598</ref>
