You know, I studied discipline for quite a while, and one thing I found a corelation in that the harsh disciplining is very related with Lacans description of masochism (take examples of Jocko Willink, David Goggins, Andrew Tate, Gary Vee or the hustle culture in general). As someone who has a tendency of to be more neurotic and struggle with maladaptive daydreaming, how can I develop this masochism-- or in this sense this discipline to have more self control within my life? I know this may sound twisted, but I am really curious how Lacan would help someone out who tends to struggle with self discipline. Cheers.
this explication of the analytic discourse makes it seem as though the primary point of psychoanalysis is to develop a theory of the psyche rather than to make an intervention that brings about a change for the analysand. ive always thought of the S2 in the analytic discourse chiefly in terms of its relevance to the analysand. an understanding of S2 that is based around its utility to the analyst insofar as it can be made into a theoretical apparatus sounds more like university discourse

Good if twisted question! Not sure I have an answer.

Correct on all counts! Which is why it’s so key in s19a that Lacan introduces a fifth vector from S2 to $. Wait for it! 🔥🤘🏽
