Hey. No, I don't think I've read his essay. I'll try and hunt it down now, though. I didn't really know anything of Winnicott (except what you and others had posted about him on these boards). Then my therapist mentioned him, so I did a bit of reading... But secondary sources, basically.

Last time I saw my therapist he had an interpretation, though (the first one he has offered me). And... It was very 'object relations'. So... I read up on object relations since then (just like I read up on Kohut and Self Psychology after he mentioned that). I have kind of developed his interpretation - and emailed him some stuff. Will be interesting to see what he has to say tomorrow.

Anyway... I'll have a look for the Winnicott essay (or some secondary sources at least).
