The primacy of emotions: A continuation of dramatology

Psychiatry means healing the psyche or soul that belongs to an individual human being, that is, a person, with a body and a capacity for acting, feeling, emoting and speaking, perceived by the five senses or imagined, seen figuratively in the mind's eye, in images of dreams and daydreams. Since the total person appears before us with all the characteristics, an all-in-one package, I ask, how is it that psychiatry has lost its psyche? Dramatology approaches human encounters, events, and scenes as dramatic enactments of characters in conflict and crisis. It comprises two forms: dramatisation in thought and emotion that involves images and scenes lived in memories, dreams, daydreams, fantasy scenarios, and dramatisation in act. This paper is a continuation of my earlier publication in this journal.
