From a clinical situation characterized successively by professional hyperactivity and crippling fibromyalgia, the proposed analysis raises the common defensive positions referred to as an initial narcissistic precariousness and an intense need for recognition. The motility and the sensorial were overinvested by the patient, leading to the paradoxical formation of an “envelope of pain.” This evolution was directed by the development of “borderline processes” supporting a “narcissistic formation” based on the body, mobilized for supplying, in vain, a strong dependence on the environment. This imprisonment is part of a problematic link embedded in a non- transferable debt that originates with a symbiotic mother-daughter position that no symbolic intercession could sufficiently publicize.
