REFLECTIONS ON SOME OF THE EFFECTS OF THE PANDEMIC IN THE CLINIC WITH CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS
Abstract
The following paper presents reflections on certain consequences on the clinic with children and teenagers due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.
The action of uncertainty and the unpredictable on the subjectivity of the population is pointed out and it is proposed to recall the events linked to protection measures (Mandatory Preventive Isolation, lasting two years) and resignify them to venture an incipient historicization about some of the effects that the pandemic produced on clinical work with children and adolescents.
For this purpose, the Freudian development on libidinal withdrawal and its consequences for the Self, and the changes in the technical resources that had to be implemented when online sessions were installed, are taken as the guiding conceptual axis.
The disturbing consequences of the pandemic are pointed out regarding young children, those with serious pathologies and in adolescents, taking into account the specificity of their subjective characteristics.
