Each individual will have their own reasons for coming to a psychoanalyst: their particular dissatisfactions and sufferings, their unique personal history, their own specific sense of something that does not quite seem to work out. Psychoanalysis is an offer of hearing linked with something that Lacan calls the ethic of bien dire (saying it well). The invitation of speaking to a psychoanalyst goes with the wager of being heard: being heard by an other, but also, and more importantly, by means of that other, of oneself coming to hear one’s own speech – something that is not possible without one’s consenting to assume the responsibility of making oneself be understood, above all to oneself.
