In this paper the authors try to illustrate the concept of orpha at the light of complexity theory and, in particular, paying attention to concept of the hypercycle. In this way it’s possible to understand the polarization of the mind around a gravity centre. Doing that, it’s also possible to have a new understanding of the Ferenczi’s technology in order to use it in the field of the addiction.

Keywords: Orpha, drug-addiction, psychoanalysis, dissociation, hypercycle
