description | This paper derives from a psychoanalytical piece of research about an important clinical phenomenon that articulates depersonalization and derealization, which, according to Winnicott, are known as the “inability to feel alive and real”. This is a typical phenomenon found in borderline and psychotic clinical profiles, the manifestations of which have demonstrated to be frequent in contemporary society. The analytical object in use was a psychoanalytical narrative employed in the movie picture known as Fight club understood as a fictional human event. Seven diverse fields were created/found as parts of a greater field – “to be or not to be”. By establishing a dialogue with Winnicott and Bauman, it was possible to conclude that the clinical issue in question is intimately concerned with the new forms of organizing the liquid-modern society, which paradoxically develop a certain type of individualism while they make it hard to personal growth in a sense of developing one’s ability of feeling alive, real and able to provide spontaneous gesture to transform the self and the world.
