[[Anxiety]], then, is an [[affect]], not an [[emotion]]; the only affect which is beyond all [[doubt]] and which is not deceptive. Whereas Freud distinguishes between [[fear]] (focused on a specific object) and anxiety (which is not), [[Lacan]] posits [[anxiety]] as not without an object: it simply involves a different kind of [[object]], one that cannot be [[symbol]]ized as other objects are. This object is <i>[[objet a]]</i>, the object-cause-of-desire, and [[anxiety]] arises when something fills the place of it, when the [[subject]] is confronted by the [[desire]] of the [[Other]] and does not [[know]] what object he is for that [[desire]]. Also [[Lacan]] links [[anxiety]] to [[lack]]. All [[desire]] springs from [[lack]], and [[anxiety]] appears when this [[lack]] is in itself lacking: "anxiety is the lack of a lack." [[Anxiety]] is not the [[absence]] of the breast, it is rather the possibility of its [[absence]] which saves the [[subject]] from [[anxiety]]. [[Acting out]] and [[passage to the act]] are last [[defense]]s against [[anxiety]].
