The Subjectivity of Well-being in Health

Abstract

In this paper we will illustrate the accessibility to a subjective state of well-being from two clinical situations. We will observe how these two patients, one suffered a stroke and one displaying a neurodegenerative disease, were able to overcome their handicap and deploy their creative potential, past the psychometric assessment phase.
