Zusammenfassung:According to D.Winnicott, the need for illusion is a primary human need, followed by a progressive disillusion; it highlights the dangers of traumatic disillusion. My practice as a psychologist-psychoanalyst in maternity and neonatology allowed me to look into the concrete conditions for establishing this inaugural process of psychic functioning. In this text I propose the hypothesis that perinatal depression is the clinical expression of a failure of this process, in support of the clinic. Due to the particularities of the functioning of memory at this early age, grasping the “après-coup” of these traces in the analysis of patients at other ages of life requires joint consideration of language and modes of communication before words, as a clinical vignette of adolescence will illustrate.
