Miroirs d'eau - pour une ré-émergence avec la personne dite « autiste »
Water Mirrors - for a re-emergence with the person said « autistic ».

Very often, those who treat exclusively what they call « autism » lock themselves in, prisoners of the grids of their « normality ».

During this time, the person said « autist » fights against the effects of psychic sideration, without ever giving up the expectation of helpness.

Human culture is potentially bearer of pacifying signifiers that must be mobilized in order to heal.

It is still necessary that the professionals and the family lend themselves to the reciprocal questionings and lend an ear to the echoes of globalities.

The unburying of the clay pot presupposes that the gift of otherness exalts the self-giving to re-emerge a gift of reciprocity.

To create solidary containings, therapeutic convergences must channel the contributions of various intersubjectivities.

Like other envelopes, the water of the paddling pool disalienates thought from the weight of reality and immediacy. It comes to the rescue of the memory which is floating because it proves to be a bulwark against the dissociation of sensoriality.

While one wonders about the shadows that remain silent and the reflections that keep silence, the water questions each mirror to illuminate its blurred images.

And when the puddle empties, it responds to the call of reverie to get back to the source.

The person said « autist » quenches his thirst from this water, whether it flows or it becomes missing.

At times, one worries because one imagines her « elsewhere », far away to be able to wade. However, a peaceful attention is enough to identify the flows compatible with his desire to daydream.
