From acclaimed psychoanalyst Adam Phillips, a meditation on what we
must give up to feel more alive.
To give up or not to give up?
The question can feel inescapable but the answer is never simple.
Giving up our supposed vices is one thing; giving up on life itself is
quite another. One form of self-sacrifice feels positive, something to
admire and aspire to, while the other is profoundly unsettling, if not
actively undesirable.
There are always, it turns out, both good and bad sacrifices, but it is
not always clear beforehand which is which. We give something up
because we believe we can no longer go on as we are. In this sense,
giving up is a critical moment - an attempt to make a different future.
In On Giving Up, acclaimed psychoanalyst Adam Phillips illuminates both
the gaps and the connections between the many ways of giving up, and
helps us to address the central question: what must we give up in order
to feel more alive?
