A patient suffering from premature ejaculation and other sexual difficulties reacted characteristically to an analytic reconstruction by an exacerbation of his symptoms and production of a screen experience. The screen experience served for displacement of affect, not to an object but to a lie. The experience was more auditory than visual. Reider states that a reconstruction acts as an injunction to remember; it urges the patient to break through a repression and thus
causes aggravation of symptoms and use of screen memories. It propels unconscious material into consciousness through derivatives that serve as a screen. The exacerbation of symptoms and screen experience is a compromise solution of the disturbance in economic relationships caused by the reconstruction.
