The aim of this book is to reflect on the concept of stabilisation in the psychosis clinic from the perspective of psychoanalysis. This concept differs radically from the notion of stabilisation in common sense, which conveys a certain idea of harmony, of balance. A person, an environment, a stable situation is one where there is little noise, little agitation, little movement. Daily clinical experience shows us that this is not at all a characteristic of psychotic subjects, quite the contrary. The stabilisation proposal developed here seeks to discuss another idea. That of the subject's search to invent a possible relationship with the Other and with the body, from within this affirmative, explosive, open experience, which is the psychotic experience. A relationship that allows the psychotic subject to be less invaded by the Other and more inserted into the social bond. This insertion will never occur by trying to introduce the psychotic into the phallic norm, to summon him to be within social norms and cultural standards. But in the bet that, from within the disruptive power of the psychotic experience, it is possible for these subjects not to live in the universe of social exclusion but within the social bond.
