Art often portrays the state of loneliness, mainly referring to the absence of a loved one. Thus, we start from the assumption that the state of loneliness is a source of psychic suffering and that enjoying the company or relationship with someone would be the antidote. This study aims to understand how the feeling of very intense loneliness resulting from failure in the process of structuring the self is framed, discussing the feeling of loneliness from the psychoanalytic theoretical point of view. This reflection is based on a published case study: a woman who (re)visits a deep feeling of loneliness after divorce. In contribution, one finds, in the Winnicottian view, the notion that the ability to be alone is an important indicator of maturity, a positive aspect in relation to the state of loneliness. The study had the theoretical support from Freud and Ferenczi’s considerations on the anguish of separation, with excerpts of the case to deal with this opposition about the theme.
