Old age is a very recente category, in spite of many people
having studied already this sector of the population.
Nevertheless, the image of na elder in Brazil is still the
object of prejudice as a consequence of lack of information
and communication. In the population of old persons, the
contingent of women is more willing to express itself and
struggle for a better quality of life. Women have suffered
throughout history because their value as individuals was
not appreciated by society, since they were considered
inferior to men and therefore, dependent on them. S. Freud
has shown that this historical and cultural prejudice has
had great influence on the psychology of women. It is
obvious in the education of the female population tha
presents itself at the clinic where this study has been
conducted. Using psychoanalyses as a theoretical
reference , this paper has as an object the research of
feminine image in old age. The population used in this
study is that of the women treated at the psychology clinic
in an ambulatory for the elder of the UFRJ-Instituto de
Psiquiatria- CDA. The quality of life of this population,
which has been growing, has been the main objective of the
psychology clinic. The clinic has gained in importance as
an agent that is helping the acquisition of mental health
and equilibrium by the women who look for help because thy
feel sad, anxious and afraid. Listening to their suffering,
we were able to draw an image of women facing old age
and consider some of the possible causes of their
unhappiness. In association with psychoanalyses, and based
on theories that emphasize the importance of the body and
of non-verbal signs of affection in the psychic development
of individual, we have concluded that the feminine image,
which is sustained in the period of life that corresponds
to the decadence of the young body, symbol of the feminine
in our culture, is the result of a satisfactory process of
identity acquisition in early life or of an adequate
process of analysis in later life, when the previous
identity acquisition was not satisfactory.
