Connections between body and psyche are regularly studied in the field of psychosis. One of the reasons of that recurrence is the fact that schizophrenic psychosis deconstructs the discursive system and exposes its bodily roots. In the first part of this paper, we remind several authors (Dolto, Pankow, Aulagnier, Golse, Delion, Piaget, Stern i.e.), whose works are showing how the mind develops on the basis of sense – and bodily experiences. In the second part, we examine the specificity of the schizophrenia as regression to the autoerotism and we mention Freud's idea of the “organ's language”. The organ's language represents the use of bodily symbols into the discourse; those symbols have to be interpreted like dreams. Finally, two clinical examples illustrate those elements. We examine the idea that, even if the nosographic category “schizophrenia” has not necessarily to be defended, there is perhaps a common clinical feature defined by the place of the body in the discourse.
