N2  - As a clinical psychologist in intensive care unit, I am interested here in the exciting function that writing has played for the caregivers of our department, through the “dashboards” made for patients with Covid-19 and/or their families. These notebooks were the place of sharing fear and anguish, the place of dramatization and a subjective scene, the narrative putting order in the face of somatic, senseless, disorganizing disease, leaving relatives and caregivers destitute. Place also of a magical thought supposed to repair the experience of impotence in the face of an unknown pathology; place where words have the power to prevent tragic events; place of a life drive held in the word and collective narrative through which an individual memory can be reconstructed; instead of a narrative continuity in the face of somatic discontinuity; instead of a therapeutic commitment in a situation of impasse; instead of an unconscious challenge to death, place of the sound of words to try to keep it at a distance
