Cartesianism and agoraphobia
The characteristic condition by which the obsessional neurotic signals that his symptom places him in an unusual and even catastrophic situation is known to be phobias. At the same time, the study of phobias today, as before, takes place under the sign of the discourse of medicalization. Its dominance is usually justified by the fact that the phobia, according to the general idea, should be resolved, making room in the psyche for free and healthy activity.
