Abstract(s)
Tomando como referência as linhas teóricas propostas pela clínica etnopsicanítica, a transição de um país de origem para um outro (desconhecido), coloca o sujeito numa situação vulnerável capaz de provocar consequências na forma como este irá integrar a experiencia ao nível psíquico. Na tentativa de aceder a um entendimento da sua vivência de migração, enquanto sujeito psicológico, recorre-se ao Método de Narrativas de Associação Livre (Hollway & Jefferson, 2000). Realizada uma entrevista a um homem nascido em Tomé e Príncipe, onde permaneceu até aos sete anos, tendo migrado para Cabo-verde, onde nasceram os seus pais, e onde permaneceu até aos dezasseis anos, idade em que imigrou para Portugal, faz-se uma análise profunda da narrativa recolhida, norteada pelas orientações da referida metodologia. Destacam-se da análise grandes temas, a destacar: a identidade, a filiação e a transmissão psíquica, cuja ligação é evidenciada enquanto problemática central. As representações que Francisco faz dos seus vividos, em lugares e tempos diferentes, como se da mesma experiencia se tratasse, são denunciadoras da sua impossibilidade de firmar uma identidade própria, a qual, numa fase ainda muito prematura do seu desenvolvimento, encontrou obstáculos, inscritos na incorporação de conteúdos psíquicos transmitidos pela geração precedente. Perante uma visão de si e dos outros, marcada por uma confusão clara entre tempos e lugares, tornam-se evidentes as dificuldades para construir um Eu, sentido como único, caracterizadas na inexistência de uma estrutura identitária necessária para conseguir aceder à alteridade, absolutamente necessária à (re)organização psíquica perante o diferente e o desconhecido.
Accordingly to the theoretical assumptions of ethnopsychiatrical clinic, the transition from one country (origin) to another (unknow), and the experience of rupture implied in this change, puts the person in a position of vulnerability affecting the way he/she psychically organizes the experience. The Free Association Narratives Method (Hollway & Jefferson, 2000) is used to access the understanding of the psychological subject within the scope of his migratory experience. We conducted a detailed analysis of the narrative produced on an interview by a man born in Tomé and Príncipe, where he remained until the age of seven. Then he has migrated to Cape Verde where his parents were born, remained there until the age of sixteen and finally immigrated to Portugal. The analysis is guided by the theoretical postulates of proposed methodology. Three main themes emerged: the subject identity, affiliation and the psychic transmission emerged as central problems closely linked as the central problem. “Francisco” representations of his life in different times and places, appear as a unique experience and reveal how is unable to develop a true sense of identity, at a very early stage of its development, encountered obstacles of psychic contents transmitted by the previous generation. Francisco’s vision and from the other(s) are marked by a clear confusion between different times and places and reveal’s the impossibility of constructing an identity of its own, a unique away, expressed as a lack of identity structure required to access alterity, necessary to (re)psychic organization to cope with the different and the unknown.
