Abstract
This article presents the partial results of a research that aimed to analyze the lives of individuals subjected to involuntary commitment by judicial determination. This qualitative research included data collected by means of unstructured interviews conducted with seven young people living in a Therapeutic Community in a city from the countryside of Espírito Santo. The reports indicate that life regulation strategies, whether through judicialization or medicalization, express the biopolitical record over the bodies of subjects who escape dominant standards. Such practices express the capture of modes of subjectivation and forms of subjectivity, determining a place where life is reified in the perspective of capitalist logic.
