Abstract
Psychic movements are headed as expressions towards soma, behavior (act) and psychism (representation, dream, and thinking). A comparative discussion regarding the somatisation process in relation with act and representation reveals the difference between body and soma. While the body is located in the psychic territory of the reversible subjective time, the soma is located at the border of the psychic space, towards the external reality of the irreversible objective time. The pathology of evacuation of the psychic tension supposes a certain confusion or nondifferentiation between body image and soma, as well as between internal and external reality.
