Il coming out nell’era di Internet, male, female o e-mail? Relazioni omosessuali e Rete - The neologism "disidentity", introduced by Lai in 1999, expressed the worry about the spreading of "that feeling of disorientation" that would have shortly became the most dramatic anthropological change of the latest years. In this study we try to understand the reasons of this change, inquiring into the progressing of the feelings of indefiniteness, vacuity, lack of planning, etc., and finding its origin in the lack of transpersonal inscriptions through an eidetic path, which covers the subjectual group analytic theory, trying to go even further. Key words: identity, disidentity, transpersonal.

Trauma, writing cure e e-therapy: nuove prospettive di aiuto - The present review examines a new possibility of treatment for extreme traumatized victims, taking into account the studies about trauma elaboration, the writing cure and the online therapies. Theories of PTSD propose that cognitive processing during trauma can account for the characteristic autobiographic memory disorders of these individuals: memories formed from meaningful processing are thought to be fully elaborated into their autobiographical context, instead traumatic memories are characterized by a preponderance of sensory-based information. Writing about traumatic memories can help the meaningful processing and trauma elaboration, and internet increases the therapeutic possibilities for stigmatized trauma victims. Key words: PTSD, Online Therapy, writing treatment.
