Summary : The author shows the importance of death anguish at any level in severe epilepsies.
The image of death is like a ''ghost haunting'' which makes the treatement more difficult and is a hindrance to the patient's insertion in social life.
Frequenthy this ''haunting'' is linked to a real death for which mourning has not been achieved.
The author illustrates with several cases how a psychotherapic or even psychoanalytic work can change the psychological identification of the patient and, so, helps in synergy with medical or surgical treatement. |
