ZAPATA ARRIARAN, María Rossana. Human sufferings with, in and through digital connectivity. Punto Cero [online]. 2021, vol.26, n.43, pp.55-69. ISSN 1815-0276.

The dialogue between the different fields of knowledge can make it possible to understand the complexity of communicative phenomena in the age of digital connectivity. How are human sufferings dealt with, in and through social media? Psychology has gone hand in hand with communication to understand communication phenomena. Psychoanalysis, as another field of knowledge, refers to the malaise of the current age, characterized by the fall of the law. The law fails in the face of the impossible to regulate, which is the death drive in Freud’s terms. In this work, the communication conflicts of three patients requesting psychological consultation are analyzed. A list of their sayings is made and they go beyond them trying to show something of their unconscious, which ultimately determines their communication processes.

Palabras clave : human suffering; social networks; communication; death drive; interdiscipline.
