critical theory with slavoj zizek: The reassuring lesson of fantasy is that “I was brought about with a special purpose”. At the end of treatment, instead of being bothered of what I am for the others, I fully assume the uttermost contingency of my being. The subject becomes ‘cause of itself’ no longer looking for a guarantee of his or her existence in another’s desire.
