"The neurotic is an ill person who is treated by speech, above all his own speech.

He must speak, recount, explain himself.

Freud defined psychoanalysis as the subject’s assumption of his own history, insofar as this history is constituted by the words addressed to another person.

Psychoanalysis is the realm of speech, there is no other remedy.”

Jacques Lacan, Panorama, 1974

“The burning desire for the expression of love is just the admission that anxiety lies at the bottom . . . anxiety about the possibility of change.”

— Kierkegaard

“Addiction is the root of the symptom which is made from the reiteration of the same One.

It is the same, in the sense that it can’t be added up. One never gets to: ‘I’ve had three drinks, so that’s enough now’. One always downs the same drink, once more.

It was in this sense that Lacan said the symptom is an etcetera, the return of the same event.”

Alexandre Stevens, New Lacanian School - NLS, Fixation and Repetition
