This thesis proposes a model of the frontier disorder of the analytical process which could be useful for the understanding of the borderline organisation of the personality. Having experienced counter transferential difficulties, the author decides to investigate the origins of the psychic processes at stake in a fertile analytical relation and the ones lying behind some more unbalanced encounters. Working through some key analytical theorisations and taking the detour of empirical research, the author places the bounds able to delimit a land where the frontiers disorder could be tackled. He names a positive pole adolescent process and a negative one Alien sex and argues that the frontier disorder could be explained by the fact that the analytical setting stimulates both the positive and the negative pole. His hypothesis is that under the pressure of the patient psyche the analyst could potentially mix up one process with the other. For the author, this double connection actually occurs in most of the analytical encounters except in relations with borderline personalities for whom only the negative pole gets activated. The spotting of such an oddness allows the author to throw some light to the similarities and differences between some, obstacles troubling the adolescent process and the troubles invading the frontiers disorder in the borderline organisation of the personality.
