ABSTRACT
En este artículo estudiamos a dos mujeres distímicas a quiénes tratamos mediante psicoterapia y, a partir de ahí, se pusieron de manifiesto aquellos componentes internos que sustentan los síntomas depresivos. Estos mismos hallazgos se confirmaron en otras pacientes con idéntico diagnóstico. El resultado consistió en descubrir una desinserción sentimental respecto a sus parejas, permaneciendo con ellos sin separarse, al tiempo que van apareciendo insidiosamente las manifestaciones depresivas. Este desarrollo las lleva a la caída del ideal de amor al que aspiraban, que sostenía sus vidas y funcionaba como una agarradera de la personalidad. Tales apreciaciones ponen en cuestión las nociones clásicas acerca del duelo (AU)

The same findings have been confirmed in other dysthymic patients. The result of the study consisted in discovering a sentimental separation from their love object, while the woman still lives with her partner and while the depressive symptoms are appearing insidiously. This development leads them to the deterioration in the ideal of love they sought, that supported their lives and served as an anchor of their personality. This point of view places classic notion about mourning into doubt (AU)

In this article, we study two dysthymic women who we are treating with psychotherapy in order to reveal the inner components that maintain depressive symptoms. The same findings have been confirmed in other dysthymic patients. The result of the study consisted in discovering a sentimental separation from their love object, while the woman still lives with her partner and while the depressive symptoms are appearing insidiously. This development leads them to the deterioration in the "ideal of love" they sought, that supported their lives and served as an "anchor of their personality. This point of view places classic notion about mourning into doubt.
