[The difficult path of critical psychosomatic medicine]
Abstract
In our present-day society that openly worships strength and secretly represses death, psychosomatic medicine is on the horns of a dilemma: either to externalize this repressive attitude and thus to translate it into reality so to say by de-interiorization, or to critically defend a mental health concept that can be considered as representing a unification of inner and outer ecology.
