Summary note

"This book explores the effects of growing up with a severely disabled sibling from a relational psychoanalytic perspective. Dobrich considers how the survivor sibling can develop a self of self and navigate the narcissistic injuries of their shared caregivers to achieve personal growth. Drawing on interviews with analysts who are survivor siblings, as well as extensive clinical material, this book offers a new perspective on the impact of sibling relationships on subjective development, identity formation, and the clinical encounter in particular"-- Provided by publisher
