However, Bill Wilson, the co-founder of AA, in his second letter to Jung referred to its low success rate. One evidence-based alternative, dating back to the 1950s, is the clinical use of lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) for treating AUD. Bill Wilson was a strong advocate of using LSD as a preparation for alcoholics who had difficulty grasping the spiritual aspect of the 12-step programme. Bill Wilson wrote a “secret” four-page letter to Carl Jung detailing his own use of LSD and the success two psychiatrists in Canada had in treating alcoholics and asked for his advice on using LSD to help alcoholics. Aniela Jaffé, a Jungian analyst and co-worker of Jung, replied to Wilson on May 29, 1961, “… as soon as Dr. Jung feels better and has enough strength to begin again his mail, I will show it to him.” Jung died a week later. This article quotes Jung's previous hostile opinions on psychedelics and asks: Just as Jung overcame his negative views on groups when giving “complete instructions” on extending the 12-step programme of AA to “general neurotics”, might he similarly have changed his mind when he saw the documented success of using LSD with recalcitrant alcoholics?</p><p>Alcooliques Anonymes (A.A.) est une ressource reconnue pour les personnes souffrant du Trouble de l'Usage de l'Alcool (TUA). Bill Wilson, co-fondateur des AA, dans sa deuxième lettre à Jung, a fait référence à son faible taux de réussite. Une alternative fondée sur des preuves, et qui remonte aux années 1950, est l'utilisation médicale de l'acide lysergique diéthylamide (LSD) pour le traitement du TUA. Bill Wilson a fortement préconisé l'utilisation du LSD pour la préparation des alcooliques qui avaient des difficultés à saisir l'aspect spirituel du programme en douze étapes. Bill Wilson écrivit à Carl Jung une lettre de quatre pages, « secrète », exposant en détails sa propre utilisation du LSD et le succès de deux psychiatres canadiens dans le traitement de personnes alcooliques avec le LSD. Il demandait conseil à Jung sur l'utilisation du LSD pour aider les alcooliques. Aniela Jaffé, une analyste jungienne et collaboratrice de Jung répondit à Wilson le 29 mai 1961 : « … dès que le Dr Jung se sentira mieux et aura suffisamment de force pour recommencer à s'occuper de son courrier, je lui montrerai. » Jung est mort une semaine plus tard. Cet article cite les opinions antérieures négatives de Jung concernant les drogues psychédéliques et pose la question suivante: tout comme Jung avait dépassé ses perspectives négatives sur les groupes en donnant des « instructions complète » sur l'extension du programme en douze étapes pour les « névrosés de base », aurait-il de la même manière changé d'avis s'il avait vu les résultats probants de l'utilisation du LSD avec les alcooliques récalcitrants?</p><p>Die Anonymen Alkoholiker (A.A.) sind eine etablierte Adresse für Menschen, die a","PeriodicalId":45420,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ANALYTICAL PSYCHOLOGY","volume":"69 4","pages":"550-580"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2024-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141856782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although Fordham tried to reassure him that Jungians were promoting his work, Jung was looking from the other end of the telescope, seeing the need to rescue humanity from its one-sidedness that would ultimately lead to nuclear conflict. Astronomical evidence, such as the Fermi paradox, echoes Jung’s concerns about likely self-destruction. Rather than promoting Jungian ideas to interested groups, the imperative lies in identifying crucial messages for global survival and engaging the public in them. Science provides some useful lessons because its concerted efforts over centuries led to the gradual integration of scientific thinking into the public psyche. These lessons suggest that, to cross the border from the Jungian to wider public domain, compromises are necessary, such as simplifying messages and making engagement enchanting and practical. Analytical psychology’s task goes beyond one individual, group, or even generation, and a debate is needed to begin to form a consensus on the way ahead. Some initial suggestions are made for adopting terminology the public can relate to, focusing on the transcendent function as the main vehicle to overcome one-sidedness and conflict, and using figures like Nelson Mandela to demonstrate practical application.</p><p>En 1960 Jung se désolait du faible impact de la psychologie sur le destin global. Bien que Fordham ait essayé de le rassurer, lui disant que les Jungiens faisaient la promotion de son travail, Jung regardait les choses d’un point de vue différent. Il voyait le besoin de sauver l’humanité de sa partialité, partialité qui l’amènerait en fin de compte au conflit nucléaire. Les indices venant de l’astronomie, comme le paradoxe de Fermi, font écho aux préoccupations de Jung concernant une probable autodestruction. Plutôt que de promouvoir les idées jungiennes à des groupes de personnes intéressées, l’impératif serait d’identifier des messages cruciaux pour la survie globale et de mobiliser le public avec de tels messages. La science fournit des leçons utiles parce que ses efforts d’ensemble sur une durée de plusieurs siècles ont apporté l’intégration progressive du penser scientifique dans la psyché publique. Ces leçons suggèrent que – pour traverser la frontière entre le monde Jungien et un domaine public plus large – des compromis sont nécessaires, tels que de simplifier les messages et de rendre l’implication séduisante et réaliste. La tâche de la psychologie analytique va au-delà d’un individu, d’un groupe, ou même d’une génération, et nous avons besoin d’un débat afin de commencer à élaborer un consensus sur le chemin devant nous.
