<br/><br/> Through the clinical study of a psychotic patient caught up in a chronicity, the author demonstrates how, when the delirious solution is no longer possible, a spectacular behavioral regression can take place. Also, she questions the way in which repetition, with the alternation of disorganizing symbiosis and other intense regressions, is in favor of a resistance to change because the separation is so risky. Facing this behavioral regression, the institution, a place where repetition takes place, is at stake though the illusion of powerlessness. However, this repetition does not have the same tone inasmuch as it is shared, released, and spread among the members of the group. The author demonstrates how, with a secure and constant setting, the institution, faced with its own repetition, will help mature and distill thoughts themselves, and then the patient. But only to a certain extent. . .
