Few specific researches on the subject of ADHD are available within psychoanalyses; therefore, this investigation’s focus was to identify, analyze and to link with the child’s life experiences that cause fissures in the psychic structure, determining the emergence and symptomatic evolution of ADHD.
Multiple-case qualitative study, where six children from six to eleven years old, comprising both sexes, previously diagnosed with TDAH, and their parents, were involved. Data obtained came from various sources: interviews, clinical files, surveys, graphic projective test, playtime hours and clinic sessions; from such a compound, previous-to-birth life experiences, as well as in birth and beyond, were identified as keynote moments in the fissure of the psychic structure, as well as symptomatic evolution. Data was interpreted via clinical analyses, ruled by a dispositive of inter-analyses that allowed recreating each history. In every case diagnose was confirmed, predominately a mix type, in co-morbidity with oppositional defiant disorder, anxiety and learning disabilities.
Although each history possesses its own character, fissures in negative narcissism antedating birth were detected, in regard to: lack of desire of son, irritating pregnancies, between-parents strife, hate pacts, which produced failure in fetal investiture. Experiences came to happen around birth time of fetal suffering, hospitalizations, absence of birth pleasure, lack of a father image, traumatizing encounter with the world, at the origin of neglect angst, narcissistic failures, hindrance thus to psychic structuring; frequent mother depression, responsibilities toward the new born carried away without affection, negative investiture of the child ego frailty producing, basis of symptoms. Fissures in motherly holding, handling and object presenting functions appear immediately after birth, unsettling family environment, ruptures, separations, violence, all experiences that impaired psychic organizing in the subject, leading to the first symptoms of defiance: restlessness, sleep impediments, weeping, psychosomatic infirmity, inability to differ satisfaction and to tolerate frustration, delay of language and sphincter control.
An ineffectual set of superego function occurs both due to ego frailty as well as unresolved oedipal conflicts, cause for failure in pulsive renunciation; furthermore when school botched to include and promote child’s creativity, these factors led to ADHD’S symptomatic manifestation. The combined stories of these children reveal a pathologic of primary anality, as resulting from many wants, wounds in negative narcissism and piled-up traumas lived through the whole of their existence, which appear as determinant in inception and symptomatic evolution.
Key words: attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), psychic structure, life experiences, negative narcissism, primary anality.
