A long-term case study with sadistically-tinged countertransference elements. Am J Psychoanal. 2019 Feb 13;: Authors: Ingram DH Abstract This case report sketches the psychoanalytically-informed supportive psychotherapeutic treatment of a single man through his life challenges over a twenty-year period. The decades-long challenges arise from obsessive compulsive disorder, pathologic self-effacement with insatiable and unusual erotic components, and severe visual impairment leading to blindness. Sadistically-tinged impulses arising in the countertransference are described. PMID: 30760817 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
