Abstract

This article aims to discuss the arrival of adolescence for the autistic subject, and the implications arising from this period of life, having psychoanalysis as theoretical reference. Initially, adolescence is conceptualized. In a second moment, it articulates the autist’s adolescence and the concept of invention. In order to do so, it gets hold of the concepts of Freud-and-Lacan-oriented authors’ works and uses the documentary account of Owen Suskind’s history to address the particularities of their passage through adolescence.
