ABSTRACT

This paper presents generalities relating to the act of dreaming, emphasizing the versatility of its clinical utility, from the standpoint of the classical authors to addressing the current neurophysiologic controversy. In the context of describing the sexual symbols are described both hypothesis about the nature and content of dreams, in the case conflicting individual lifemarital and emotional content-at times psychopathological, which represents a subject explored in insufficient today. Judging by the silence that exists in most areas of clinical care and no representation in national publications, it follows the low importance attached by health personnel to the issue of psychic manifestations that populate the unconscious mind. The findings arise under the neuropsychoanalytic hypothesis and illustrate the presentation in one of the areas intended to vet the content of mental patients and their representation in conscious life. It emphasizes the need to generate clinical reports and update knowledge, including the various manifestations of symptomatic patients (in the area of relationship and psychosexual life), in order to compare information that enables more broadly analyze such demonstrations mental and behavioral with the couple. The limited availability of material in the country of national authors, it is regrettable; may be associated with inadequate preparation for carrying out clinical and therapeutic research, best suited to the different problems of mental patients.
