We practice this form of reduction beginning with the encounter with the patient, and relate it in this article by choosing a literary style (37 numbered paragraphs made up of a number of equal words), that is faithful to its subjective progression, made of gentleness, formalizations, and cuts showing the objective points of attachment to the solidity of the clinical.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>The clinical facts occur in the patient's lived world and in the common world, each one thought of as a reality of daily life and a reality of work, and which are co-constructed by institutions and culture. Our results are presented as clinical variations on the theme of the forensic psychiatric examination, highlighting the importance of the subject's inner history as well as the importance of his or her culture.</p></div><div><h3>Discussion</h3><p>This work shows how, by passing from the oral to the written form and then returning to the oral form at the time of the hearing, the expert witness does not so much describe the facts as he produces them, by placing them in direct relation with subjective experience: that of the perpetrator, that of the victim, and that of the expert himself. As a collection of stories, no fact, clinical or judicial, has any meaning in isolation. It only becomes worthwhile through the relationship that it makes present from various angles and points of view, characteristic of the plural realities that make up the co-construction of the expertise. The phenomenological method, by progressing gently, allows the facts to appear as they can make sense to each of the protagonists. A common horizon of values can then emerge from the discussion and the successive passages from oral to written form, which sheds light on the possibilities of discernment, choice, and responsibility that structure the missions entrusted to the expert witness.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>Phenomenology brings to forensic psychiatry a rigorous method of progression on the philosophical level as well as on the clinical level. It can thus contributes to the progression of the judicial truth without draping the reality of the clinical facts with any cerebral mythology or any preconceived theory applied from the outside to the facts, to the subject's own experience, and to what links them.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45007,"journal":{"name":"Evolution Psychiatrique","volume":"88 4","pages":"Pages 649-659"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121764485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although the medical side of keraunopathology is well documented and explored, the psychological experience of lightning victims is still very little studied. However, despite publications concerning the depressive and anxiety-provoking potential of being “struck by lightning,” the examination of life stories before, during, and after the electric discharge is almost non-existent. The aim of our study is to trace some of the clinical and phenomenological coordinates of this phenomenon by drawing on a number of fictional and non-fictional accounts, including those of people who also describe this moment as a near-death experience.</p></div><div><h3>Method</h3><p>After reviewing the current neurological and psychopathological knowledge about keraunopathology, we will look at the close link that usually exists between victims’ stories and mythology or fiction. Then, we will review some stories that can be found in non-fictional literature and that link near-death experiences and fulguration. Finally, and to support our proposal from a psychodynamic and phenomenological point of view, we will look at the original clinical case of Athéna and try to understand how a stormy day could have reshaped her life, her thinking, and her relationship to the world.</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>The psychic dimension of lightning appears to be central to the treatment of its victims. We observe that, beyond the direct medical and even psychopathological after-effects, the psychical reorganization attributed to lightning has repercussions on the emotional, cognitive, perceptual, spiritual, and social levels. Moreover, these upheavals introduce a hesitation in the psychodynamic diagnosis of the subject. Thus, what may appear to be the decompensation towards mystical delusion of a psychotic organization could in reality be only a mystical attitude rooted in a neurotic structure.</p></div><div><h3>Discussion</h3><p>Psychological support for people with mental illness requires a multidisciplinary approach that takes their complexity into account. Knowing how to find ways of understanding while avoiding any hasty categorizations remains essential. Moreover, beyond the reflection necessary for the treatment of the person experiencing the exceptional, lightning gives the opportunity to rethink certain classic models of the near-death experience. Paradoxically, this mortal threat, which occurred at the speed of light, seems to be richly subjectivized by the subjects, in a temporality that is clearly out of sync with physical time.</p></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><p>Further work will be needed to complete the beginning of the reflection that we have outlined in this article. It must be supported by similar descriptions in order to form a solid conceptualization, whether of keraunopathology or of the near-death experience in a broader sense.
