The psychological problems of the adults will be viewed in relation to the diagnosis about structures and the pathologies of narcissism: nevrotic structures, border line structures, psychotic structures, narcistic problems and perversions. The course will focus in particular on border line situations and narcistic situations, as they are more frequent nowadays.
