The perspective of literature formulations allows us to think of the Clinical Diary as an artistic product of Ferenczi’s unfolding experience of primary relatedness with his patients.The open and poetic style of his writing supports such an interpretation.Ferenczi’s own anxiety on surrendering to the experiment of mutual analysis was quite visible.Ferenczi undertook in intensive,genuinely interpersonal therapy:patient and analyst become both artist(writer)and medium.He was in fact the father of the post-Freudian approach to what he called the“traumatogenic”environing psychology of his patients.On a personal level,in his direct and forthright discussion of Freud and his work,he deeply influenced the creative unfolding of major psychoanalytic perspectives on theory and practice.The Clinical Diary is a personal novel of searching boundaries in psychoanalytical technical questions and also searching boundaries in human relations and in metapsychology of the conscious and unconscious processes.There are three storytellers:Ferenczi,his patients and Freud.Their storylines are mixed in special ways focusing on the secret questions of the analytical method.

How does the‘environment’come to the person?The‘ecology of the person’and addiction

Currently,psychiatry lacks a field that can be called“theoretical psychiatry”,which uses theoretical concepts and explanatory models:The main stream of research is to collect data of all kinds in the hope that the computational Big Data approach will shed a bright light on the black box of mental disorders.Accordingly,the biology-based Research Domain Criteria of the National Institute of Mental Health have been established.However,as philosophical analyses of concepts and methods have shown,several epistemological gaps stand in the way of a consistent multilevel understanding of mental disorders.Also,the implicit ontological problems in the biological reduction of the psychosocial level and in the integration of so-called hard and soft disciplines are mostly left out.As a consequence,a non-reductive psychological theory of mental disorders is sought that also integrates correlating biological and sociological issues.In this context,one example of promising nonreductive psychiatric research is the option of systems/network psychopathology.The possibilities for integrating different psychological perspectives are highlighted for the field of addiction research and treatment,where pragmatic behaviorist approaches dominate over the theorybased practice of psychoanalysis.In comparing the theoretical constructs of these two approaches,the relevance of the concept of“(social)environment”as the wealth of influential sociocultural factors is discussed at levels superior to the interpersonal micro-level,namely the organizational meso-and societal macro level,which is not sufficiently considered in current biopsychiatry.On this basis of argumentation,the usefulness of grounding and framing psychiatry through the field of ecological sciences,especially human ecology,is demonstrated.Finally,to this end,an outline of an ecological model of mental health and illness is presented.

Freud’s Theory and the Group Mind Theory:Formulations

This study aimed to reconsider some concepts of the psychoanalytic theory on group mind. Group psychology is concerned with the individual man as a member of a race, nation, caste, profession, or an institution, or as a component of a crowd of people that has been organized into a group at some particular time, for some specific purpose. Group psychology embraces an immense number of separate issues and offers investigators with countless problems, which have hitherto not even been properly distinguished from one another. Reflections presented in this paper were particularly inspired by Freud’s work on Group psychology and analysis of the ego and approaches to the chaos theory, especially, the fact that groups emerge as systems that exhibit unstable, aperiodic and highly complex behavior, with a tendency to self-organization.
