The dead mother complex

Is a clinical condition described by Andre Green involving an early and destructive identification with the figure of a 'dead' – or rather depressed and emotionally unavailable – mother.

The dead mother complex has been seen as underlying both Gradiva and Freud's own psychology as seen in Delusion and Dream in Jensen's Gradiva.
Sylvia Plath in her writing has been linked to the dead mother complex.

Very interesting...Hmmmm!

Mother is dead Lord.

Good song, very apt.
