ADDICTION AND REPRESENTATIONS IN THE RORSCHACH: EVOLUTION OF ADDICTIVE PATIENTS WITH THE PSYCHIC CARE
Forty patients with alcohol use disorders (AUD) or bulimic disorders (BD) which benefited from mental care are classified "improved" (AC) or "still" (SC) from the CGI scale. The comparison of their Rorschachs at the beginning (t1) and at an advanced moment in their treatment (t2) shows significant differences between both groups in the evolution of the "expressive" and "counterxpressive" answers. An idiographic study of some cases specifies the way the answers evolve between t1 and t2. The interest of using the Rorschach to contribute to observing the development of the mentalisation is discussed.
