The role of self-esteem in the experience of envy.

It is the thesis of this paper that although analysts have always recognized that narcissistic injury may trigger envious feelings, the significance of self-esteem as both a motivator and response to envious feelings has not yet been sufficiently explored. Traditional drive-defense or object instinctual explanations tend to diminish awareness of the importance of self-esteem in the experience of envy. The focus on drives or repetition of early patterns of object relations does not always take into account the significance of the cycle in which damaged self-esteem leads to envy, the component parts of which may cause further damage to self-esteem, leading to more envy, and so on. I am suggesting that it is often an attempt to avoid painful injury to one's self-esteem, as well as the related attempt to maintain a positively colored sense of self, and not a repression of drives or a repetition of some aspect of early object relationships which must be understood in order to fully comprehend both feelings of envy and the need to keep such feelings out of conscious awareness.

Issues in developing quality aftercare clinics for the chronic mentally ill.

Two large aftercare clinics were established to provide treatment and rehabilitative care for a chronic mentally ill population requiring neuroleptic drugs. The clinics have evolved rapidly and expanded their service over the past 3 years but have required constant monitoring and modification in order to provide quality as well as quantity care in the community setting. These modifications are described and the importance of further community-based investigation in the rehabilitation and treatment of the chronic mentally ill is stressed.
