Doctors say 18 year US Army Veteran Steven Cooper has – at the top end- 5 years to live. He has terminal prostate cancer after waiting a year for an appointment at the Phoenix VA. But on Monday, a Federal court awarded Mr. Cooper $2.5 Million in a lawsuit against the Veterans Medical Center. The Phoenix VA has been at the center of scandals  over long wait times for years.

There are some things that are better left unknown until the time is right. The time is not right until death, which, in my opinion, makes death something to look forward to, not dread.

Day #1 – Song – Habits by Steven Cooper

I am choosing this song to start out with as I am in a place where I feel like I need to kick some habits in order to make some positive changes. Habits that include apologizing for everything, from being in the way of an isle at the grocery store to talking to my friends. Struggling with the habit of self harm. Recently in the past year I started back up; I would like to see myself quit indefinitely. It’s has always been something that I find helps when I am feeling numb to the world; it brings back all the feelings in the world and shows me a small light in a dark tunnel. But I understand that I should find a healthier form of dealing with the numbness. And most importantly I would like to change my habit of negative self talk. It’s something I feel I consistently do and I believe I can be a downer on myself and the atmosphere that I’m in. Also a little one that I would really like stop is biting my nails. It’s horrible. Really.

I would like to see myself take sometime to figure out my life and how I can start making these changes little by little; creating positive behaviors and building better parts within my life. I want to be a better person.

depressive position

I have never been very fond of the term “depressive position” but I have also had a hard time coming up with something better, something more descriptive. Winnicott (1954, p264) put it well when he said that: 

The term “depressive position” is a bad name for a normal process, but no one has been able to find a better. My own suggestion was that it should be called “the Stage of Concern.” I believe this term easily introduces the concept. Melanie Klein includes the word “concern” in her own descriptions. However, this descriptive term does not cover the whole of the concept. I fear the original term will remain. 

At its best, the term includes our capacities to accept limitation and incompleteness, to grieve loss, and to accept responsibility. With regard to the analyst’s relationship to the depressive position, he or she must have the self-reflective capacity for concern about his patients and his work, his participation. He must work with the understanding that resistance to this position is ongoing. In other words, he “concerns” himself with these matters of resistance as a part of ongoing work. There is always a “disturbance in the field” (Cooper, 2010) because psychoanalysis is by definition a “contentious topic” (Parsons, 2006, p1183). 

There are at least a few possible reasons for our profession not being more explicit about the analyst’s relationship to the depressive position. I have wondered if there is an important dynamic operating in the history of technique, a kind of resistance to our experience of the depressive position in which we to some extent disavow the necessary repetition in psychoanalysis that contributes to it being a relatively slow process. The patience required in our work and the ongoing limits to our understanding require that we constantly work toward a paradoxically lofty and modest analytic ego ideal, best described by Samuel Beckett’s (1984) notion of trying in an ongoing way, to “fail better.”

It Ends. Or Begins. Download FREE Music from Steven Cooper and learn more HERE!

Steven Cooper has decided to take the risk of a lifetime with his campaign titled “It Ends. Or Begins.”  He feels his positive take on rap music isolates him from the other more typical genres of hip hop.  Steven believes this unique quality does not allow his music to be heard.  So when his newest album was ready to release, he realized he was at a crossroads.  He needed to get his fans’ attention, and he would do anything to get them to listen.  Watch to learn more... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NK9Cvfyrpxs

Steven Cooper has decided not to release his new EP, “One Night Out”, until his latest album “Stereotype” is downloaded 100,000 times, completely FREE from NoiseTrade.com. This is the first ever album release date that is decided by the fans!  Along the way, he will unlock new material as certain numbers are reached.  If the goal of 100,000 downloads is not fulfilled, Steven’s new album will never be released, and his career as a musician will end.  He has left the fate of his career entirely in the hands of the fans: they decide whether it ends, or begins.  

Please help Hey Cole support Steven Cooper by visiting the link below and downloading the FREE Stereotype album today!
