“Loneliness has two faces: it can be a bad adviser, but if tamed, it will become an invaluable friend,” writes the famous Swiss psychoanalyst Jean-Michel Quinodo in his book. According to psychoanalysts, the feeling of loneliness is associated with separation anxiety, which first arises in a child when, as an adult, he tries to separate from his mother. Again, it can appear in situations of separation, loss and gives rise to depression, fear of death, a feeling of abandonment. The author describes various approaches to understanding this phenomenon and, using practical examples, shows how psychoanalytic work allows you to gradually transform the hopeless feeling of loneliness into the possibility of fruitful solitude.
