This paper seeks to be a perspective of psychodynamic psychiatry, an attempt to explain the delirium of a patient with schizophrenia over 30 years old, who has lost his home, identity card and inner coherence of the Ego. He lives in a space - as real as it is symbolic - inside a psychiatric polyclinic and expresses his free consent to expose his personal perspective, an interpretive one on his own life, in which we glimpse fragments of former truths, through cosmogonic delirium. The paper also describes the countertransference reactions aroused in the participants in the working group, and, especially, the importance of unconsciously supporting such a patient with multiple hospitalizations in psychiatric departments, so as superimposed to the antipsychotic background he can be able to recompose his old personality.
