Psychosomatic unit is not a spontaneous data. The movement tending to unit mind and body allows human beings to exist. During our lives, we deal with “natural” states such as diseases or somatic illnesses and we have to translate the messages that our body sends, as if it was a sort of a stranger inside us using a strange language. This article considers the hermeneutic view of the psychic movement trying to connect and give a sense to corporal and sexual subversive messages. Going over Freud's biographies and above all, his correspondence, Freud appears, as every human being, to tell to himself a lot of “personal stories” in order to give a sense to his diseases and somatic illnesses.
