title: [The treatment of the psychotic.].
abstract: It is becoming more and more common that people take for granted the idea that psychoanalysis can do nothing for psychotics. Nonetheless, it is Freud who took the "senseless" products of Man that are dreams, lapsus', symptoms, deliria, hallucinations, and who "reinstated" them in the realm of humanity. But it may also be what many hold against him. Supported by over six years of working with psychotic s in a Centre de traitement psychanalytique in Québec, the author can prove the existence of an apropriate treatment for psychosis. The psychotic who enters the analytical field begins reacting to the analyst's "calling" aimed at having him speak up. The cure for psychotics follows a logicical path and must respect certain conditions ; the author attempts to describe the process, from the "calling" of transference to the object created through which the psychotic can relate socially.
