Human beings have always questioned their identity in an attempt to understand themselves better and to develop. With the development of our societies and especially the new technological revolutions, the search for the self has become more perilous and dangerous because it is less controlled.In this essay, Thierry Delcourt discusses the mechanisms at play that undermine our identity. Based on a clinical examination of the teenagers and young adults he follows on a daily basis, he questions our psyche in the face of societal upheavals: Are we going to become virtual, to the point of criminalizing all non-consensual contact and, in fact, reducing social empathy? What are the neuropsychic consequences of AI? What are the consequences of the war in Ukraine and Palestine on our identity? What are the disorders related to contact with YouTubers, blockbusters and manga? The disorders related to the questioning of gender and sexuality? To the radicalization of the political debate, or even to the seizure of power by minorities? To drug use, which is increasing year on year? The search for altered states of consciousness and paranormal phenomena, two very strong trends among young people at the moment?These disorders affect us all at one time or another in our lives, and particularly in the fragile moments of our development, such as for young people confronted with the world, its constraints and its turmoil.Secondly, the psychiatrist provides us with avenues for constructing our identity. The question is not things were better before, but what do we do with the new social, political and economic order and the transformation of the psyche? How can we resist, describe, criticize, get involved, choose, invent, subvert, play, intervene and impose in order to construct our identity properly?

Its better to talk to you than to my parents; I wouldnt want to hurt their feelings. Anguish, when it takes hold of me, is a terrible abyss! I dont know who I am anymore. Its like voices are talking to me, its weird; Im scared ... Today, teenagers dare to consult on their own. We welcome the end of the taboo, and the fact that its easier to talk, but beware of the dizzying distress that can be caused, because it only takes a little for a teenagers life to turn upside down. The precipitous and uncertain evolution of society, of the family, of the relationship to work and to culture, upsets the reference points of the teenager and his parents. Adolescence is therefore a crucial time for talking: its the time to make it a priority. Thierry Delcourt guides us and suggests concrete situations to help parents and teenagers find their way towards greater well-being and dialogue. Lets not forget that the teenage period is rich in creative potential, which needs to be revealed. The book is aimed at teens and parents alike. It can even be read together, as a way of talking and hearing each other differently.

De tout temps, l’être humain a questionné son identité pour essayer de mieux se connaître et se construire. Avec le développement de nos sociétés et surtout des nouvelles révolutions technologiques,

Comment Salvador Dali sublime sa folie sans jamais y basculer. Comment Antonin Artaud, confronté à des traumatismes infantiles, oscille toute sa vie entre une création débordante et des accès de foli

« Je veux plus, j’y arrive plus. » « J’ai mal au ventre, j’ai peur de vomir. » « C’est nul, ça ne sert à rien. » « Je suis fatigué, j’ai besoin de faire une pause. » « Je suis bien dans ma chambre. »

Salvador Dalí sublimated his madness without ever falling into it. Antonin Artaud, confronted with the traumas of childhood, oscillated all his life between an overflowing creation and accesses of madness. Niki de Saint Phalle, thanks to artistic expression, cured herself of a deep depression linked to the trauma of incest. Vincent van Gogh, in order to reach the summit of his art, put himself in danger to the point of committing suicide. Camille Claudel exhausted herself in her creation and ended up being interned and never creating again.Based on the life and work of a dozen artists of genius, Thierry Delcourt tries to understand these artists transition from the summits of creation and the artistic abyss. Why do some people fall into madness while others go through life without a hitch? Why do some sick people find healing through creation? Why do many artists have an obsessive need to create relentlessly?To these fascinating questions, this book offers striking answers about creation on the brink of the abyss.

I dont want to gp. I just cant do it anymore. "My stomach hurts, and Im afraid of throwing up.""It sucks. Whats the point. "Im tired. I need a break. "Im just fine where I am, in my room."Since the health crisis, Thierry Delcourt has observed a considerable increase in children who cannot or no longer want to go to school, not only for problems of violence, racketeering and bullying, but rather for much more troubling reasonshostility, laziness, convenience or opportunism. According to the author, who has cross-checked data from National Education and the CNED, absenteeism at school has increased by 10% over the last 3 years. This book aims to enlighten anxious parents, disoriented teachers, and psychologists who are overwhelmed by these situations, and to provide an approach to understand and overcome these obstacles that lead to school dropout and, in the long run, to school failure. Each chapter refers to a particular situation, analyzes the reason for it and then offers advice on how to combat this scourge.
