A Question of Time

The concept of "destructive idealization" is explored through Angela Molnos's insights, particularly in her studies involving staff who care for AIDS sufferers. Through her experiences and talks from 1993 and 1994, she reveals how splitting can mask its harmful effects, providing a unique perspective on the psychological challenges faced by caregivers. This work delves into the complexities of idealization and its implications for both caregivers and those they support.
