In order to discuss the depressive personality we have first to distinguish between this clinical entity and other types of depressive psychopathology that might also be chronic. The character traits and psychodynamics of the depressive personality confirm that there is a special group of patients, who belong to a depressive disorder continuum. The particular technical problems that depressive personality present are: (1) the inability to enjoy anything and the consequences of this on the therapist's experience and interventions, and (2) the negative therapeutic reaction which threatens the analytic process and the therapist's competence. If we combine transference/ extratransference interpretations with an >empathetic understanding< approach to systematic confrontation and interpretation, we can therefore justify the need for a slightly modified psychoanalytic technique in the treatment of the depressive personality.
Using a clinical vignette, in which self-disclosure appears as a starting point, the authors investigate the connection between method and techniques. As the recent literature on the subject generally maintains, the classical analysts' neutral position can no longer be accepted. Analysts are always fully engaged in the intersubjective relationship and pass their values on to their patients through their professional roles – which can be understood as self-disclosure in a wider meaning. However, self-disclosure, and in more general terms the analyst's participation in the process, need technical criteria of reference. By deepening the relationship between method and techniques, established by Rapaport, the authors maintain that method is determined by theory and in turn gives meaning to techniques. As a consequence, techniques play a minor role with regard to theory and method. The opening of psychoanalysis to the relational perspective is bringing about the decrease of technique as an absolute value in favour of a greater self-awareness of the analyst who, following the method related to his/her theory will be able to better cope with techniques.

The existence problems of human being, as a time and a whole subject, have come up to cotemporary people. Their spiritual living situations show that affluence modern life did not give people to healthy and contented spiritual condition but enslaved by them. Not only have individual spirit lives and living fallen into a unprecedented state of anxious and immanent, but the plights of living, such as imbalance ecology, destruction of environment, crisis of energy resources war and terrorism threats have been laid in wait for contemporary people as well. As a peer of 20th century, Erich Fromm has been keenly concerning about the conditions of living, fate, and soul. His humanistic view ... Concretely explained the living conditions of humankind, criticized itself wrongs of industrial civilization, implied the living dilemma of contemporary people, and proposed social reform and love revolutionary to go beyond materialization and to sublate natural power of alienation, so as to build up new human kind and new society; by which people can awake from alien, half sound asleep state, and obtain liberation, finally go into the >living kingdom<.
