ABSTRACT
This chapter illustrates the concept of un/conscious or the continuity between the conscious and unconscious, and the relationship of reciprocal inclusivity that binds them to each other. As Ogden says that we must transform the therapist's unconscious emotional experience into a psychological problem he can talk about with the patient. F. describes coming out of a cinema and seeing a teenage sweetheart with whom she had had a very intense but platonic relationship. The author tells F. that he wonder what she was really afraid of, whether it was of not recognizing her old flame, which is actually what happened, and especially of not being recognized in turn, rather than the opposite. The chapter shows that analyst and patient move together continuously and sometimes rapidly along the Möbius strip of the unconscious.
