Viscissitudes in social bonding and narcissistic constitution. Analysis of a clinical situation

Abstract

Based on the demand for mental health in a Health Center, this article analyzes the difficulties in bonding with peers of boys between 6 and 11 years old. We demonstrate how these difficulties led us to work on the establishment of figures of supporting alterity and narcissistic constitution, as well as the vicissitudes of being housed by the parental couple and institutions such as the school and the Health Centre.
