The author reviews the work of culture in each generation, highlighting the acceleration of successive changes in relation to the time variable and the need to adapt to them. She mentions trauma-generating situations such as the world pandemic with its effects and consequences and the installation of other paradigms. It reviews the concepts of authors and raises the current problem of desubjectivation with the consequences of the ruptures of the contract that affect the necessary metapsychic and meta-social guarantees. He mentions the effects of the tyranny of individualism, uncertainty, and the need for the ontological feeling of security. He points out the differences between virtual, factual, and imaginary reality in order to articulate with the current pathologies of the act, highlighting the importance of the responsible work of family therapists.

Keywords: time and change, desubjectivation, ruptures of guarantees, individualism, pathologies of the act, therapeutic responsibility.
